History YMMV / LindseyStirling

* NarmCharm: The music video for Stars Align is pretty hard to take seriously. Which makes it ''work''. Same goes for ''Roundtable Rival''.

** The music videos by Everdream. Especially the blurring camera lens and falling snow in ''Shatter Me''.
*** The music video for ''Take Flight'' is ''stunning'', flowing from dreamscape to dreamscape.

** The ''Prism'' music video, with the five VioLindseys' all at once on a neon backdrop.

* Adorkable: A lot of her video work is built around her being pretty much the embodiment of this.

* TheWoobie: Long before her days of Website/YouTube stardom, Lindsey battled depression and anorexia. Watch [[https://youtu.be/5jOhOB8MD7g this video]] and you'll see just how far she's come to be what she is today.

* StuntDouble: She has a $40 violin used for scenes in rain, rolling in dirt, etc.; as a good violin costs thousands, this saves it from getting ruined.

* PainfulRhyme: "I'm scared of changin', the days stay the same / The world is spinning, but only in gray..."

* CounterpartComparison[=/=]SpiritualSuccessor: Some have compared Lindsey with Vanessa Mae, a British violinist who was famous for mixing classical music with ElectronicMusic during the late 1990s.

* AwesomeMusic: Many, but [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inb8MMZ-QmA Song of the Caged Bird]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49tpIMDy9BE Shatter Me]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHjpOzsQ9YI Crystallize]] are the big ones.

* {{Narm}}: Some of the themed videos can seem silly with the FacialDialogue, and the dancing doesn't always work. For example: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99ZYIECx1Vw Pokemon]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3KUyPKbR7Q Zelda]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oNpmSAvpGQ Game of Thrones]].

* VisualEffectsOfAwesome:

** The ''practical'' water, fire, and lighting effects used in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrutzRWXkKs official video]] for "Master of Tides" definitely qualify.

* TheWoobie: Long before her days of YouTube stardom, Lindsey battled depression and anorexia. Watch [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jOhOB8MD7g this video]] and you'll see just how far she's come to be what she is today.

* [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff Europeans Love Lindsey Stirling]]: She's a hit in the US, but she has a ''huge'' European following, with the turnout for concerts in Germany and Switzerland often numbering in the thousands.

* CounterpartComparison: Some have compared Lindsey Stirling with Vanessa Mae, a British Violinist who gain fame for mixing classical music with Electronic dance music during the late 1990s.
