ILU, PINCH HITTER! You are the bestest pinch hitter in the world! Stuff from Monday! Chuck's goofy grins! Sarah throwing things! Sweet smiles and sad looks!

More later.

Okay, so.

First, "Honey and the Moon" is one of my favorite songs! I was half delighted and half skeptical when the vid started, because I thought it was too sad for Chuck, which is generally kind of upbeat, and I only say this, dear vidder, because you convinced me utterly! It is sad, but you make it sound hopeful, full of promises delayed but not ultimately broken ( ... )

I'm so happy that "Honey & the Moon" is one of your favorite songs <3 It's one of mine as well and ever since I started watching Chuck, I've wanted to pair it with the show, but it never felt quite right... The show has a really bipolar soundtrack when you listen to it - really popular, commercial songs, contrasted with really quite and soft indie songs. I've always thought you could tell what was a good musical match with the show by listening to the soundtrack in all its twists and turns. I'm certainly happy you thought it worked in the end!

Not gonna lie, I watched the premiere and then I saw your pinch hit and I was kind of twitching and going like "Oh, I could. But it's so short notice! And I have so much to do! *twitch*". But as I said, I already had the song for so long, and it just FIT now. That you think that I fixed the season 3 storyline (so far) REALLY means a lot.

The hands were so the visual/emotional center of the vid and I'm ecstatic that you loved the focus on them!

So happy you like it \0/

Thanks!

Sweet and sad. Love the song and what I've seen of the show, and the vid marries them together so well.

milly February 1 2010, 07:30:21 UTC

Thank you! Sweet and sad is definitely what I was going for.

Oh, so pretty. <3 I love that song, too; perfect.

milly February 1 2010, 07:30:31 UTC

Thank you! <3
