"Dear Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
Thank you for your incredible music. I first heard your songs, when my sweet sister Sophie entered a music video contest producing a video for your song: "All Wash Out". The combination of your beautiful music and her great talent has left an eternal imprint on my mind.
Sophie, my little sister was just 20 when she entered the contest. This Sunday we played the video at her memorial service. She passed away recently during an exchange semester in Prague. She suffered from a brain hemorrhage and just never woke up from her sleep one night.
I find the description (which went along with her video); "A girl goes on a journey to wash away what's behind her leading to her rebirth" incredibly moving as she would have no idea that she would soon leave this earth. Sophie was not meant to act in the video, but due to incredible karmic circumstances, the actress who was supposed to participate was prevented to come (last minute) and Sophie stepped in. Both acting and directing.
It gives indescribable joy and comfort to be able to turn to this video, during this period of grieving and to know that it will stay with us. She spread such an unbelievable amount of joy and light during her -- much too short -- life. And has left the world forever richer.
I realize that it is a long shot, but it would mean very, very much to us if there were any way you would be able to help share this last memory of Sophie.
In any case, I truly thank you for having been a catalyst in Soph leaving the world this beautiful video.
I apologize that my English is not sufficient to express my emotions (I am from Denmark), but I hope it has made sense.
Thank you again, Luna."

Lyrics:

Here come chilly preacher
Stumbling 'gainst the wind
Singing love, love is something to believe in
A prayer and the sea
And twenty tons of me
Crying love, love is something to believe in

To my child of wonder rambling
All my crooked fingers pointing blame
Let it all wash out in the rain
Yea let it all wash out in the rain

Beyond the drunken focus of my aim
All my heroes twisting in the flame
Let's let it all wash out in the rain
Let it all wash out in the rain

One more for forgiveness
Twisting in the cold
Singing love, love is something I believe in
Too much my defenses
Are dangling from the chain
Oh but free, free is something to believe in

To my God I want my gypsy train
Too my child a howlin' tambourine
Let it all wash out in the rain
Let it all wash out in the rain
Yes let it all wash out in the rain
Let it all wash out in the rain

[agalle]

Sophia is the actor in the film.

Here's her story. 

Dear Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros

Thank you for your incredible music. I first heard your songs, when my sweet sister Sophie entered a music video contest producing a video for your song: ‘All Wash Out’. The combination of your beautiful music and her great talent has left an eternal imprint on my mind.

Sophie, my little sister was just 20 when she entered the contest. This Sunday we played the video at her memorial service. She passed away recently during an exchange semester in Prague. She suffered from a brain hemorrhage and just never woke up from her sleep one night.

I find the description (which went along with her video); ‘A girl goes on a journey to wash away what’s behind her leading to her rebirth’ incredibly moving as she would have no idea that she would soon leave this earth. Sophie was not meant to act in the video, but due to incredible karmic circumstances, the actress who was supposed to participate was prevented to come (last minute) and Sophie stepped in. Both acting and directing. 
It gives indescribable joy and comfort to be able to turn to this video, during this period of grieving and to know that it will stay with us. She spread such an unbelievable amount of joy and light during her—much too short – life. And has left the world forever richer.

I realize that it is a long shot, but it would mean very, very much to us if there were any way you would be able to help share this last memory of Sophie. In any case, I truly thank you for having been a catalyst in Soph leaving the world this beautiful video.

I apologize that my English is not sufficient to express my emotions (I am from Denmark), but I hope it has made sense.

Thank you again, Luna.

Sophie was meant for this song at the time. And this story, song, and video will always remain as my favorite.

[Iamtheyamyam]

She seems like the kind of woman who appreciated everything there is to life and who made everyday count. Whilst her body may be resting in peace; I'm certain her soul is still dancing.

[rickyjoetube]

Beautiful, all of it. Especially Sophie and her loving sister Luna, and how this all came to be, poetic. Namaste, Orenda, Selah.

[sarahsartipy]

To my child of wonder …..rambling
Beautiful Sophie…..Praying that your parents find comfort; you were so adored!

[ChancesMom]

Every time I come back to this video, I cry. But I love it....

"All Wash Out"

Here come chilly preacher
Stumbling 'gainst the wind
Singing love, love is something to believe in
A prayer and the sea
And twenty tons of me
Crying love, love is something to believe in

To my child of wonder rambling
All my crooked fingers pointing blame
Let it all wash out in the rain
Yes let it all wash out in the rain

Beyond the drunken focus of my aim
All my heroes twisting in the flame
Let's let it all wash out in the rain
Let it all wash out in the rain

One more for forgiveness
Twisting in the cold
Singing love, love is something I believe in
Too much my defenses
Are dangling from the chain
Oh but free, free is something to believe in

To my god I want my gypsy train
Too my child a howlin' tambourine
Let it all wash out in the rain
Let it all wash out in the rain
Yes let it all wash out in the rain
Let it all wash out in the rain

Here they come, some tears again, for this so beautiful and sad story.
Thank you, Luna, for writing to Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes and for sharing all this with us. And thanks to them, of course, who I always loved so much.

Light and peace

Every time I come back to watch this video, I just wish I could keep "liking it"!!!

Beautiful song, beautiful video, beautiful story. Rest in peace, Sophie.

Immensely sad and yet amazing at the same time.

Beautiful girl, beautiful soul… rest in peace, Sophie. 

[FolkaMealaMole]

Wow Man, your sister is an Angel now. I could feel her when i was watching this and i'm crying with how beautiful the video and she and Edward Sharpe are. So powerful. 
No doubt your sister is in paradise waiting for you to come home, One Love, Brother.

[josefmendoza]

Sophie is obviously a beautiful soul. I'm happy to have found this gem of a story and celebrate the beauty's life.

[wendylovesall]

Absolutely beautiful. Your soul was sweet Sophie. May your afterlife be a joyous adventure. <3 

[CiaranBoylePhoto]

Beautiful, her memory will live on with this song.

[bolenarrow]

2:20 Is why I listen to this song. That part is sooo good.

[josephpleuvoirsilentium]

I still feel sad. Tears couldn't express the despair that I am feeling for this song and the gal in the mv

[lizzieanne]

Sophie certainly got a chance to leave her mark. x

[reneklatz]
