Lost Video Island

[SassyLostie2]

I'm thinking of making a Jin vid. Don't ask why, just thought it was interesting. I've only found 2 vids on YouTube that centered only around Jin, in the search, so I figured it was a good idea.

Please! Does anyone have any ideas for a song?

The theme from 'The Godfather.' Heh, not entirely serious, but it was the first thing that sprang to mind. I know I can find a song though. Let me think. Any sort of genre?

[SassyLostie2]

Just something that can encompass his entire story, and not exactly centering around his relationship with Sun. Thanks so much! I've been searching around, and can't come up with anything.

Lyrically, this is pretty good. Song-style-wise, I'm almost positive it's not what you're looking for, but it was the best thing I found running a search for 'fisherman' on Napster. (There's a bunch of other Celtic stuff - Silly Wizard and The Waterboys amongst them - with 'fisherman', but I didn't want to go TOO Celtic, as Jin isn't.)

I'll check it out. Thanks! If you feel like looking any further (I don't blame you if you don't, it's not your job. lol!) Maybe a song about protecting someone you love (he had to do bad things to be with Sun) or anger problems, or family issues...meh, I'm looking too, I'm not just waiting on you. Thanks for your time!

[SassyLostie2]

Meh, I'm not sure if a Jin vid would be taken seriously with that genre of song. hehe But thanks for trying! I'll keep looking!

From what you described, I'm thinking Billy Bragg singing Woody Guthrie's stuff. Will upload 'All You Fascists' (you could include lots of stuff from Glass Ballerina and Through the Looking Glass) and 'Meanest Man' (for the anger issues.)

[SassyLostie2]

Hold on...I may have found something...You don't have to worry about it.

[thefilmchick]

Heh. Will post Meanest Man anyway, as I do think that one really works.

Never mind, I lied. I didn't find a song. Well, I thought I may have... *sighs* I'll check that out and keep looking.

These lyrics especially, mind you.

Quote:

If my wife didn't kiss me the way she does I'd carry four or five daggers and three or four guns...

That's what had me thinking it would be decent. Plus, the bluesy line would be easy to vid, and if there were a verse that didn't work, it'd be easy to cut.

[SassyLostie2]

That does sound good, but I'm still not sure. I'm waiting for something that just totally jumps out at me.

I'm alright by the stereophonics? Its a very cool song. itd be cool to see a jin vid kinda slowed down to the song Is fitting for how everything Jin did in his life was for Sun Ill grab you the lyrics...

A good lyric from is "I'll tell another lie for you. Tell you what you wanna hear, but that don't make it true"

How about this one here:

Although it's not really my kind of music, I started working on a Jin vid to this song a long time ago but unfortunately, I never managed to finish it because I got stuck. It's a wonderful song though and the lyrics suit him quite well, I reckon.


EDIT: I can upload the song for you if you want.

[SassyLostie2]

Aww, thank you everyone. I may give up on the Jin idea, but now i have ideas. Thanks.
