Excellent choices of clips, and great meshing to a song with a very tricky time!

I love the overlay of the TARDIS in flight - it carries the flow of the music very well while the clips go more active in order to keep up with the rhythm.

The clips from TIP/TSP over the 'believe' lyrics, perfectly timing the thud during TaC to the beat of the music, and driving home the point that the Doctor's really not alone (despite what he seems determined to believe), are all fantastic highlights.

Thanks so much for this smashing video!

I am so glad you enjoyed the vid, Prin, since this one is definitely for you after all! I hope you also got a little something extra about participating in the whole process, seeing the bits as they came along. I truly went on your recommendation on using the clip with Sarah Jane at the end for example, and it really worked so well to help tell the Doctor that he's really not alone!

The overlaid TARDIS clips are some of my favorite parts in the vid as well, and I'm super happy that the meaning behind the TIP/TSP clips over the "believe" lyrics worked for you.

And thank you for the challenge of this song! Yoko Kanno's an amazing composer, and the beats in this song were really interesting to try to work with. :D

OH, this was absolutely lovely! I adored every second of it.
Still, I'm feeling a little sad in the end. Poor Doctor *huggles him* But it's great that you showed that he is not alone in the end. He has friends everywhere and that's good :D

Wonderful video! The style of music is quite unusual for me. Is it possible that this song was originally sung in Japanese and translated into English? Haha, somehow it sounds very much like that :D

Thank you Jules!! The Doctor really isn't alone, but he just can't seem to remember that, can he? ;)

This song was originally sung in Japanese, but this isn't a direct translation of the song. The Japanese version is very different in meaning. Still, the music itself is quite unusual with all the beats. Those crazy beats sure made for an interesting challenge. :D

Oh my! Words cannot describe my happiness of the fact that you combined one of my all time favorite songs (can't go wrong with Yoko Kanno and Escaflowne!) with Doctor Who. Awesome vid, wonderfully done :D

It was just... so beautiful. An a good choice with the song. I still cry when I see the images from 4x13. I love Rose and Ten and Rose/Ten so much, and your video was just... VERY NICE! I loved it (but it was sad. everything is sad if Rose participes. the Journey's End episode was just so cruel for the Doctah and Rose. *cries a bit*).
