I had tears in my eyes listening to Lily sing on her front porch, as Los Feliz neighbors came outside (at a safe distance) on Saturday night to listen to fellow neighbors serenade us during this fearful pandemic. There was five or more neighbors all the way along North Alexandria who had arranged to sing on their front lawns, as a coming together for solidarity, comfort, camaderie. It was so moving.
This 2-min video is choppy - just bits of footage spliced together. I hadn't planned on even recording video on my phone - and juggling the phone in one hand, a glass of wine in the other, and navigating keeping at least 6 feet apart!
But it's just the beauty and loving energy of the moment. I've lived on North Alexandria in Los Feliz for 20 years, and while I know a few neighbors, there were many I saw for the first time, each of us smiling and waving from a distance!
Thank you to all who sang. It was so meaningful. Sorry I only got snippets of your singing, and sorry I only recorded a few moments, before many had sung!
