In all honesty, I really enjoy this song. It's got some pretty good sound choice, and I really enjoyed listening to what the music box had to say. However, even after listening to it a couple of times, I don't get the connection to the story in the long term. I get the connection at some points, moreso at the beginning orchestral sequence, but as it gets to 0:38 it starts to stray a little from the story (although I can see the mother being taken or the kid running in that part), but going into 1:18 almost feels like a complete separation from both the story and the piece altogether. That story comes back at 1:53, but it's that middle that just feels like filler. In addition, the drums that come in at 2:32 pull away from that feeling. I could understand with orchestral drums or percussion, but it kinda feels as out of place as the rock thing. Overall, I like the sound, and the general feel, but the story kinda skips around and is muggy in much of the piece. Still, pretty good job :)
