Her incredible reaction when I play a song that she wrote

I went to Santa Monica, CA to ask random people to sing with me for my series called "Sing With Me." That's when I met Allie. While trying to find a song for Allie to sing, I found out that Allie writes her own songs. Since I really like the idea of guests on my show singing songs they write, I asked if I could listen and learn one of her songs. At first, she was apprehensive about having me do that. But eventually, she became open to me learning a song of hers called "Dear Mr. Rogers," a dedication to her favorite TV personality Fred Rogers. He was the host of the show called "Mr. Rogers Neighborhood." This show aired from 1968 to 2001, and Mr. Rogers passed away in 2003.
It took me about 3 minutes to learn her song, and we performed it in this video. I asked her how she felt after singing that song, and she said "I always feel happy singing." I'm glad I was able to give her that experience. (Here's the song ON YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/WIBJfx45he8)
As a musician, I'm all about creating musical experiences that have people feeling happy and free, and that's why the "Sing With Me" series exists. Since 2018, I have asked thousands of random people to sing with me on camera. A lot of people have said no, some have said no initially but changed their minds to yes, and some have said yes right away. I ask these people to sing with one purpose: to create a way for them to experience a sense of happiness and freedom they did not feel before. And much of the time, this actually works (and that makes ME happy).
