Si el tiempo cambia, lyric video sample

Style and material

A quiet Spanish song about holding on when time changes your paths and the wind puts out a sign: “Si el tiempo cambia”. With one hand beside yours and one string, you begin again. A calm evening scene: a notebook on a window sill, a wooden sill, an acoustic guitar and a window with a violet sky. Each sung line is lettered in rope-like threads on the surface in front of you. The places and objects were chosen from the words of the song, such as the wind, the hand and the string, and the words appear in time with the singing.

About this clip

Si el tiempo cambia is a 30-second lyric video sample for a song in Spanish.

Visual style: rope-like lettering carved on an acoustic guitar, a notebook page and a wooden sill. A guitar song: each line is lettered in rope-like threads on the body of an acoustic guitar, on a notebook page, on a wooden sill or on a window pane, with soft dust floating in the light.

Across the clip: The whole clip stays in one calm evening scene: a notebook lies open on a wooden window sill, an acoustic guitar leans beside it, and a window looks out on a violet sky. Each sung line is lettered in rope-like threads on the guitar, the notebook page or the sill in front of you. The light stays warm and still, the sky holds its colour, and nothing in the room moves except the words as they are carved, wound and set down in time with the singing.

The first and the last line of the clip:

“Si el tiempo cambia nuestros caminos,”
“con una cuerda vuelvo a empezar.”

Lyrics (caption text)

The same text as the captions of the video.

Si el tiempo cambia nuestros caminos,
si el viento apaga alguna señal,
pon tu mano junto a la mía:
con una cuerda vuelvo a empezar.
