I should have been doing other things with my time, but I felt compelled to make this one. Not exactly waffy, so consider yourself warned.

Clark: "Lois? She's bossy. She's stuck up, she's rude... I can't stand her."
Lana: "The best ones always start that way."

Simply stunning CA, rarely have I seen a video with such a delicate blend of music and scenes.
Oh, 10 000 miles and the FB trailers were amazing as well.
You have a great touch. thumbsup


I do know you, and I know you wouldn't lie... at least to me...most of the time...

Fabulous, gorgeous, wonderful. The were something so delicate about it, the way scenes were chosen with such care. And you are right, there is an undercurrent of angst but based on the song you chose, there needed to be. This is one I will be watching over and over.

I've converted to lurk-ism... hopefully only temporary.

Sometimes it bothers me that it's not possible to follow the chronological order of the LnC world when putting scenes together
Yeah, me too, but sometimes there's no way around it. It also depends on the story you're telling, I guess. But being the stickler for details that I am, it does bother me once in a while. I am on the fence about POV changes in the video, because I'm always afraid it might not be clear which POV it's from and I don't want to confuse people. So I try to stick to one single POV most of the time, but some songs just don't work that way. This one, fortunately, does. It's very Lois, all the way through.

DJ, "Wicked Game" is also one of my favorites. Yeah, it's angsty, but it's also all kinds of hot. Chris Isaak has a voice that sends shivers down my spine. The guy could sing "Wheels on the Bus" and I'd still be thinking of... well. You get my drift. wink

SuperRoo, I have no idea what the problem might be. Have you tried downloading it again? Nobody else seems to be having trouble getting it.

Chiming in late, yet again... (I can only plead that my opportunities to download vids are limited)

As always, you find the most haunting and beautifully lyrical song to tell the story. Right from the get go with "no one can save me but you" paired with one of my all-time favorite scenes from the show.

Excellent lyrics/scene matching for "what a wicked thing to say - you never felt this way"

Loved the slo-mo revisiting of all those chemistry-laden longing gazes during the bridge. Mmmm.

And the sad retelling of their first real breakup.

Nicely done. clap


Lois: You know, I have a funny feeling that you didn't tell me your biggest secret.

Clark: Well, just to put your little mind at ease, Lois, you're right.

Oh, I just loved how you captured the look on Clark's face from PML when Lois sat down on the desk.

That was so beautiful. I remember that song from way, way, way back when I dad and I would watch Jack and Jennifer on Day's of Our Lives when they first got together. Thought that was angst then. They had nothing on L&C!

Very moving coupling of song and video

I know this thread is six years old and this is a long shot. But I heard this song on the radio a couple of months back and it reminded me of this video, and now I really want to watch it again. The original link doesn't work anymore. I searched my hard drive and didn't find a copy, and I contacted C_A but didn't get a response.

Does anyone happen to have a copy of this downloaded that they'd be willing to send me? You'd be my hero smile
