That was AWESOME morgan!!! one of the most convincing AU's i've seen!!! I loved the start with Claire 'dying'; that was so well done; i totally believed it! I loved the funeral with charlie holding Aaron, actually every one of those scenes was awesome. like charlie visiting claire's grave with aaron; fantastic. I loved how he was at the church and remembered their wedding day; loved charlie seeing claire throughout his life after her death. I loved that you used that sad Wyatt scene at the end when charlie's losing it; that's one of my fave wyatt faces; even tho its sad He's the perfect aaron and the end; omg! fantastic video; good luck in the comp!

one thing; its says "Cassidy" under the characters; i thought you were gonna shock us with a new ship, lol!

OMG! Morgan!! This was such a fantastic AU from start to finish. Totally and utterly brilliant..hehe. I loved the beginning with Claire dying, and you showed throughout the vid how hard it was for Charlie to deal with her death so well...then the ending was sooo sooo sad but soo convincing. Huge well done, good luck in the contest!

You only have to watch the first 3 seconds to realise how amazing this vid is gonna be Agh, dammit, you've made me all speechless Because I know this video was just flawless and PERFECT!! And just OUTSTANDING but I feel like those words just don't cover it!! Lol, well I guess they'll have to do because this was really amazing. I LOVED it! I think it's one of your best, if not THE best vid you've ever done The AU moments were SO convincing and perfect!! God I loved all of this, it's hard to pic out fave parts but I'll try!

Ok, the beginning-Claire's death. Perfecto. With Charlie running over. Awesome Where Charlie is looking at their empty bed and says "Claire" so sad But it was really cool! And OMG! Where he's in the church and looks over and sees his and Claire's wedding Wow! Claire in the pub-so clever how you did that O_O Claire's diary with the photos in-I found that sweet and it was really clever how you manipped them in there. The bit where Charlie and Aaron are at Claire's grave "Cause we never had any closure" awww, heartbreaking! And then he says his "bits of me are crumbling" line. Ahh fantastic but saaad!! At 2:36 the guilty looks he gives Aaron were PERFECT!! Ah, I love that bit! He just looks so guilty and Aaron looks so sad! Then OMG at the end with Charlie over Aaron's bed And then he overdoses and Aaron comes out and says "Daddy!" WOAH! :'( Soo heartbreaking yet manipped SO well! You've really done a fantastic job here, Morgan! I loved every second of it Gonna fave on YouTube, GOLD!

OMG Morgan. I mean, this video is just amazing. The first scene was absolutely perfect, your editing was fantastic it looked so believeable! I loved how Charlie remembered Claire and then realised she isn't actually there! Loved the song, just a brilliant video!! I nearly forgot to mention the end! My face actually dropped, it was just fantastic, the last bit of audio was perfect. I can't get over how much I loved this video. Good luck in the contest, this video really deserves to place

Wow Morgan! That was amazing! I'm really blown away by this! Your AU scenes were incredible! The ones that really stood out for me was when Claire dies in the beginning and her funeral and then the ending with Charlie and the drugs and poor little Aaron. Amazing work! I think its your best AU ever!

That was beautiful beyond words. I almost cried at the end, especially when you add Aaron call out "Daddy." I'm going to have to watch the video again later to get the full effect. Right now my throat hurts and I feel so tired. I'm hope I'm not catching anything.

Anyways another great video as always.

Great video and idea! Congrats!

But check your Youtube link. Probably they removed your video. Contact the councils to find a solution about the contest entry.

Hopefully Sendspace link still works.
