The lyrics of the song "Evolution" by The Cinematic Orchestra perfectly capture the essence of nature's beauty and its perpetual movement. The first few lines of the song indicate how the stars light up the singer's life and how they have an everlasting brightness. It implies that the stars are symbolic of something that illuminates our lives, and their beauty is evergreen, just like the stars' light.
The next few lines invoke the sun, which also lights up the singer's life. Moreover, it adds another aspect of beauty to humans' life. The sun is the source of light and energy and drives the evolution of life on this planet. The singer implies that the sun is equally important to life, just like the stars.
The chorus is a repetition of the word "Evolution," which resonates with the song's title. Evolution is the natural order of things, and it happens without any explanation or any predetermined paths. The word "Evolution" is probably used to express how beautiful, unpredictable, and magnificent life is, and how it keeps moving forward with every passing moment.
The song is ultimately an ode to nature's beauty and the beauty of life's perpetual motion, which is evolution. The lyrics evoke emotions of awe, inspiration, and respect for the wonders of nature.

I have always loved this song, and I am now enjoying this video immensely. Congratulations Agnes for your award.
@AlmostEthical
Brilliant - both music and animation. Always loved that song - when they come in after the stop gets me every time :) Amazing animation, Aga. I can't even imagine how long that would have taken to make.
@mirandamarrs
I really, really owe you a thank you. I have literally watched this video over a hundred times. And that is the literal translation of "literally". My son has absolutely loved this video since he was a newborn and, still to this day, 10 months later, he is absolutely enamored with this! I have it bookmarked on every computer, every phone, the iPad... Anytime that he starts throwing a tantrum or getting fussy, we turn this on and IMMEDIATELY he stops and stares. It's hilarious!!
