For your first vid you did a very good job. There was some thought put into the lyrics - I like the bit "If they hurt you" especially and you made enough transitions that I could definitely tell you were trying to work with the music and not just slap down straight scenes to the music. You have some good vidding instincts; keep it up!
The only thing I would suggest in the future: This song is really high-energy; the chorus really packs a punch!, but it seemed like on the two choruses your editing slowed down. I think a wider variety of scenes, emphasizing those awesome drum beats with transitions, and shorter clips would have helped emphasize the mood of the song. I know, it's hard to be patient - you want to see it finished!, but when you get a little more familiar with your software and looking for unique shots, etc., it's just some food for thought.
(And of course this advice only reflects my personal taste).
Bottom line, though, I enjoyed it. And I very rarely enjoy a first vid. Ashamed to say, I'm something of a vid snob, which is why I thought I'd bother typing up these thoughts. :-)
No thank you for the advice, I dont have a great deal of clips but I am searching for more, and yes sony vegas is hard to get your head around at 1st. But I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I will take your advice in the future.
