The recording session is portrayed for the viewer to feel the insecurities and struggles of Shania, so we see her sing a phrase, stop, and so on. But note the recording is being done phrase by phrase. It's not just due to her struggles because even when she nails a take spot on, she stops singing and recording stops. Each and every time.
Endless Love



A few things struck me about this video.

-What you already pointed out.

-The casualness of the environment.

Gone are some of the illusions of the BIG recording studios to pump out a track like this.

thanks for sharing this! I never knew this was out there...even the remake of the song. VERY cool! I enjoyed it A LOT!
