I'll download this and watch it... hmpf November 13 2008, 19:28:25 UTC

later, okay? I'm at work at the moment...

Probably I'll do the great vid watching orgy when I'm done with the catchup, come to think of it. And comments may have to be restricted to something like 'squeeeeee!', because commenting articulately on vids is something I find difficult and extremely time-consuming, and time is something I don't have much of, at the moment.

Any and all comments in any timeframe are welcome. :)

I understand time constraints and the difficulties of articulately commenting on vids.

If you get around to the vidwatching orgy obviously I'd love to hear your thoughts. If not, then whenever I finally see you again (next year, hopefully?) and probably force you to sit through the last half of BSG S4, I can also force you to watch all my vids (again). ;)

In sum: chillax - it's all good. :)

Hey there! This is the night where I've been going through my vid-watching queue and finally checking out all the vids I know I should've commented on ages ago. *g*

OMG THIS VID. I can't even. It's just beautiful, one of your best vidlets ever I think. I knew this song already so I was really intrigued by the idea of using A & B as Tigh's dual identity. The use of the lyrics and clip choices is unexpected and profound as always.

The editing of Ellen to the rhythm starting at 0:25 absolutely killed me. I love the simple fade-pause-fade effect you used on the radio/Final Four shot and the overlay with the suicide bomb. I loved the irony of "A knows he's headed for salvation / B's afraid to die." I loved it all.

Must go watch "Televangelism" now. ;)

Thank you! I'm so glad you like it. I was really pleased with it too, so I'm glad (and flattered!) you think it's one of my best.

Plus OH ELLEN *heartbreak*

Anyway, thanks so much for the comment. :)
