HOLLISS – Mental Pictures (Spotify)
“We tend to take pictures to captivate all the nice moments of our life, but don't really live these moments! This song underlines the great importance of "Mental Pictures" as they can stay in the mind and never fade out. Beautiful message and sweet vocal performance in Adult Contemporary mood.”

Artist said about this song:
Mental Pictures is all about living in the moment. So many people are living life through their phones. They’re obsessed with capturing the best picture, with the best angle, in the best lighting, not realizing that what they’re actually doing is missing the moment. There is something about just looking up from our phones, putting away the devices, and seeing/experiencing what’s really in front of us. I got the inspiration for this song on a very ordinary day. I was simply driving through my neighborhood with my boyfriend (now husband) and I looked over at him while we are at a stop light and something about the way he looked in the moonlight just captivated me. I knew that I wanted to remember it forever, but instead of pulling out my phone to take a picture like I would normally do, I put my hands up to my face and took a “mental picture” instead. We don’t give our mind enough credit. We’ve bought into the lie that a physical picture is the only way to truly capture a moment. But then I think about how vividly I remember my childhood. Before I ever had a phone. I remember it because I really lived it.
