Here is just a sample of the overwhelmingly positive feedback Wai Lana has received so far:

"I've become alive again by hearing this beautiful song...thanks from the bottom of my heart"

"Touching...soulful...lovely"

"Thank you for this! I was feeling sad today and this picked me up!"

Alive Forever also received some very positive feedback from people in the music industry:

"Beautiful song and a very well-shot video/film. Excellent work all around! I have a feeling lots of people will like this!" – Mike Savage, host of internationally-syndicated World Chart Show.

"This is a truly inspirational, gorgeous and cinematic music video. Excellent work!" – Bob Lugowe, Director of Promotions/Publicity at Relapse Records and Co-Founder of Brutal Panda Records.

Alive Forever is a unique cinematic expression that captures the feelings of anxiety, fear, and sadness that accompany the aging of one's physical body, as one's youthful beauty and vigour begin to fade. By the end of this transformational short film, the featured characters are relieved of their anxieties and enlightened by the profound yoga wisdom conveyed by Wai Lana's soothing lyrics. The lyrics beautifully express the ancient wisdom that although my body is getting older, I, the true-self, am ever youthful.

In an epiphany of music and heart-warming visuals, Alive Forever relieves the fear, anxiety, and sadness associated with aging, replacing them with joy and hope, as the characters realize one by one that the true self is not the aging physical body, will not die when the body dies, and is forever young.

According to Wai Lana, "Understanding this profound truth, we can live in peace and happiness. There is no need to be sad as our body ages, rather we should feel very blessed to know this priceless jewel of wisdom."
