to have fluidity and creativity. Also the theme and style was the same throught the entire flash (which is good). The growing fit the pace of the music and it all worked well with the ideas you've put down. The repetiveness bothered me with the fruit being another fruit, being another fruit, and I'm glad you stopped at two, but if you only had a more creative way of conveying the idea instead of panning out. Also if you changed the mood a tad with each pan it would've been refreshing (simply a change in color used, not style, theme, or anything else that would detract from the cohesiveness.).
The lipsync could have been better, but it is better than most as is. Look at the sixth place in my favorites and look at the lip sync at the credits of that flash to know what I think is the best lip sync that I've seen. It's in profile view, but it's beautiful. "Royal Rumble II Part 2"

"You need better effects in some areas..."
The roses need to not use a shape tween to get across the dieing, the friend scene needs to have movement (maybe a different style of character to move and convey friendship).
Also just the matter of you conveying each lyric without any continuity. There wasn't any real development in the narration (of your animation). The takes on all these things were pretty literal, virtually no style (except in the begginning), and no real creativity shines through. Sure you can see it, but it looks more like a gimmick more than anything, something that's "cute".
I say think about developing things more and animating more rather than copying and pasting creatively. If you do a narration of a story the animation will be better, but if you stick with this style you need fluidity, you need for it to all fit. And at the moment this is a shallow shallow submission with a good song, but shallow to the core of it's animation. You had a few thoughts on the matter, but it's far too oversimplified and underthought. You may call yourself an animator, but in no way do I see any credibility of you calling yourself an artist.
