"You Cant Keep Sawyer Down" 12-27-2006
This vid was posted on YouTube over a month ago. If it looks familiar, its because a similar vid was put up here a month later, oddly enough, by a vidder who had commented on mine over at YouTube. Hope it still seems original, and that youll enjoy watc

I admit, that I saw your vid while mine was in still in the making. But as I had already started it and had no bad intention I went on and finished mine even if it was very similar. I'm sorry, I really didn't want to steal your idea, and I still think yours is brilliant, too!

But there are already so many Lost videos, sometimes it's getting difficult to find a good song that nobody used before.

Same song? I've got not problem with that - everyone interprets a song differently - I was surprised myself no one had used it yet.
Same clips? Inevitable, considering the lyrics.
Same litany of "sonovabitches"? Striking coincidence, but not beyond the realm of possibility.
Same litany of "sonovabitches" in the exact same place in the song in your vid AND mine? Hmmm . . . .
Same litany of "sonovabitches" in the exact same place in the song, by someone who had commented on my vid when it first came out? *raises eyebrow*

It's possible it was total coincidence, and I hope it was, but forgive me if I withhold judgment till I get to know you better.

Thanks Uruviel. It was my first vid, so it took me a loooong time. I'm glad my efforts paid off.

I also did it on WMM - didn't want to buy a program if I ended up hating vidding. What a nightmare! Turned out I like vidding though, so I picked up Sony Vegas - the difference is like night and day. I haven't had it freeze once.

It's great how you found a matching clip to every line of the lyrics. Very well done!

Keep up the good work.

this was hilarious!!

My favorite part would most definetily by the "son of a bitch" clips

Ohhh man..wonderful job!

Thanks guys.

The "sonovabitch" part is my favorite too. The underlying music has three crescendos, I guess you'd call them, so I picked three "sonovabitches" - the best ones from each season.

I still giggle every time I see that one where he gets hit by the rock. *giggles*.
