I loved that video and that's one of my favorite Straylight Run songs! I adore Michelle's voice. But I loved how you had a crying scene for each during the 'I never lost so much' lines. I really loved the end with Lynn jumping into the pull. It somehow fit.

Yeah, Michelle has indeed wonderful voice. I actually think that it's a bit of shame that she sings only two songs on their their album. And glad you liked the ending as I was a bit worried, if it would seem like Duncan pining for Lynn (when I actually wanted relate a feeling with it how these mums don't really care about their kids, but just jump away whenever they feel like it). And thanx for the feedback!

That was wonderful. I especially enjoyed the scenes near the end that showed Veronica and Logan running after and being so hopeful that the person with their back turned was their mother.

Thanx, I have wanted to use some combo of those two scenes for a long now (I was actually first going to do splitted screen for that scene, but the music matched better when they were in row), and I was so excited when I finally found a song, to which they actually fitted well.

Great vid!!! I thought it was really really well done. The editing was very clean and the scenes you chose were very powerful. I thought it was also neat that each of the three mother/child relationships had different editing techniques (like the white fadeouts that matched the beat of the music for duncan's story and the interspersing of lynn's car with logan scenes) and each had different themes as well as similar themes in the way you told the stories. I dunno...I just thought it was wonderful!!!!! :)

Thank you! Glad you liked the different editing styles and similar themes, as I wanted to someway reflect how the music changes, while the lyrics of the choruses are same.

Lovely song, great job with the editing and clip choice. :) I agree w/ the previous comments, it was beautifully done. :) I think the first blur effect from Veronica now to Veronica past was one of my favorites.

When first listening the song, seeing that scene combo playing in my head was actually one of the things that made me choose to vid that song in the first place. And thanx for the feedback! :-)
