Review of Letter to My Mom: You Haven't Lost Me


Letter to Mom: You Haven't Lost Me was really enjoyable to listen to and the context was easy to understand. Despite the fact that it's only 2 minutes long it tells a whole story about the memory of personal time spent with her mom at Chuck E. Cheese.
It is a great piece to hear from the teen perspective because teens don't spend a lot of time with their parents anymore. Though, that doesn't necessarily mean that they don't miss the time they used to spend with them.
The piece uses a narrative to tell a story that most people can probably relate to (especially older siblings) about the coveted alone time with a parent. It uses sound from a Chuck E. Cheese which really helps illustrate the story and bring the listener in.
The piece is well produced and would be good for a show about family time or Mother's day, which is right around the corner.
