Darn, I knew if I didn't do this song soon it would be snapped up. Oh well, I suppose I can still do a Charlie vid to it.

Can't comment on the actual vid yet as I'm at work but I'll check it out when I get home. Never considered it for a Sawyer vid so I'm interested to see how it turned out.

It worked quite well with Sawyer. It's just an amazing and absolutely wonderful song and I think it might also work with other Lost characters.

I'd be very curious to see a Charlie version of it

You chose very beautiful shots of him in your video, and they fit with the music perfectly. Great job on creating the mood needed to make this video great.

However, I always have issues watching a video in only black and white. I think this one would have been better in all color, cause black and white usually dulls down the video instead of making it classy.

However, you had exceptional timing and a mood to put anyone to tears. Nice job.

This was a fantastic Sawyer video. I had never heard the song before, but it was the perfect choice. Perfect lyrics, perfect pace.

You used some really beautiful clips in this video. I must say that it could have been done in color OR black and white, and I must say that I liked the black and white quite a bit.

I especially enjoyed the way you kept coming back to the murder he committed in Sydney. That was heartbreaking, seeing his biggest mistake over and over. Very nice.

Bravo!

Thank you guys!
At the beginning I tried to make it in colour, but at least IMO it didn't work since the song is a pretty sad one and some of the scenes were just too light in colour. I wanted it to look darker. That's why I decided to make it b/w.

I'm very touched ... I don't think it would be better with colour < It's in the mood of the video to be black and white it makes it feel more... more ...i don't know sad ...yeah more sad

But it's really ,reallu great i love it You're a great vidder

Hmmm, that's strange cuz the homepage where the vid is hosted at still works fine. Maybe it's just a temporary problem with their server.
I'll keep an eye on it and will submit a new link asap if it's still not working.
