Open Those Bright Eyes "Open Those Bright Eyes" Instruments: Piano, guitar, bass, kit Feel: Bouncy, Bright This piece is made up of three distinct variations on a melodic theme, and should be taken apart and used for transitions in a light-hearted short video.

This section is softer and lasts 20 seconds. The final section begins at 1:17, and ends with an excited flourish.
