KAT!! This was sooo terrific. The song was so emotional especially towards the end when it got louder! Your beat use was superb and the lyric interpretations were soo soo amazing. "Scratching and Crawling" with Kate crawling and "Just when it feels right" you had [spoiler:24f6677c65]Kuliet kiss, that kiss was sooo amazing Kat![/spoiler:24f6677c65]
For "There are so many others" you had all of the other girls and used those lyrics soo well.
Then "Existing just to kiss you" [spoiler:24f6677c65]Charlotte kissing Juliet!! [/spoiler:24f6677c65]
Then the ending scene was just purley amazing Kat. The whole scene with the three of them, soo sad. Terrific video Kat, good luck in the contest!

Ok...So Im going to to try to keep my praise as linear as possible, but Im not sure I can as excited as I am about it. First of all thank you so much for making this vid, it is truly amazing!! Ok to start with...the beat us and transistions, of course are freaking amazing. Ive thought that since I saw the opening scenes. That opening is such an elaborate mess in a lot of ways. (not in the vid...but in the song

wanted to keep that clear.) Ok...From the opening, the fight and "break-up" I love it, it establishes a great pathology for Kate and her obsession with Juliet. I loved it! I loved Kate remembering her time with Juliet. ("To satisfy your senses") I am sooo in love with way that you made the jungle scene look like a love scene. How hot would THAT have been!?!

Loved the new angled Kuliet kiss.

I love from the moment you see Charlotte you can tell how much 1) Juliet cares for her and 2) how much Kate hates it. I also love the scene on the "does SHE like I do" lyric... That little nuance is really great there. Of course I loved the first chorus...From the Juliotte kiss, to the shoulder re-location. "shock you!" I love the fire side chat of Juliet/Charlotte. I love Kate spying on Juliet and Charlotte. Then her going to Juliet, loved it. Cause you can almost hear the conversation between them. Juliet wants to let Kate down easy, but of course the bane of her existance shows up, ruining even that little moment pushing Kate further over the edge! OMG!! I LOVE the beginning of the second verse. "Less than an addiction...I loved cause Kates so trying not to let Juliet get to her, but you can tell its not working. Beautiful manip, btw! And another OMG! But I LOVE "there's so many others"..how wonderful to think that all these women would do anything to be in either of their (Charlotte or Kates) shoes...but none would take it as far as Kate. (btw love that you had Sun killing Colleen, cause Colleen/Juliet is a guilty pleasure ship of mine, one I dont usually share, cause people contend they hated each other...thin line between love and hate, people.

) I loved Kate confronting Juliet and Charlotte by the fire, you can again hear that convo. "Pretty much back off, shes mine!"

I LOVE the interaction with Charlotte and Juliet during the second chorus. And a great manip on the Juliotte kiss!!! I love that (how many times can I say love...think Im going for a record.) that you used Kate punching Juliet for the other "shock you" scene. OMG and the scene with Juliet and Charlotte walking through the tunnel of The Tempest is one of my very favorite scenes with the two of them...its such a simple yet important scene. I was never sure about the direction of this vid...that was until I saw Kate kill Charlotte! And I was convinced that it was sheer perfection! I loved the overlays that made it look like that Charlotte died in Juliet's arms. The audio was great! I loved the "You wanted her to die!" That whole scene propelled Kate's death scene, which was flawless! I loved that Ben showed Juliet Kate's suicide...and Juliet reaction to the suicide. You could tell that even though she couldnt love Kate the same way because she had killed Charlotte, but that she still cared for her. You can sense Juliet's guilt over the fact that it was her love for Charlotte that got her killed and it was her reaction to Charlottes death that essentially killed Kate. And of course the end...with Juliet stating that she was already on her own. You could really see that Juliet possibly would never love someone again, afraid of what might come of it. Ok...Whew! I hope you can take this much praise of your work....cause I just think that you're awesome!! I am so thankful that you did this for me!! I <3 it and you sooooo incredibly much. Good luck in the contest!

wow, stacey! that is the best longest comment Ive ever gotten! thank you

Im glad the story of the vid came off so well. Glad you liked the kisses ;] i knew you would

and yes, those are so the convo's that woulda gone on ;] and im glad juliet's love for kate came off at the end; even after she killed Juliet

and yes, that's the point i was going for at the very end, juliet not even wanting to attempt being with someone else because of all the pain it caused her

thank you so much hun! xoxoxox

OMG! I can't believe Kate killed Charlotte! This was such an angsty dark vid, I LOVED IT! My favorite kind to watch!! Lets start at the beginning shall we....(although my comment isn't going to be as long as Stacey's LOL! That girl can type!!) Okay so I really liked how it started out with all the fighting it was so real looking and I think it really set the video up well for what was to come! All your manipulated kisses looked so fab!!! I totally bought it!! I really liked when you showed the other Lost women and how Kate thought they all wanted her.

But the best part was when Kate shot Charlotte and then killed herself and Juliet watched it on the monitor...I got major chills!! Okay i'm going to go fav this on youtube!!

Wow! This vid is awesome. I just found out about LVI and I can't believe what I've been missing out on. This place is so much better than YouTube because every vidder on here is actually really talented. Thanks for your comments on my vid, I appreciate it. Sorry I didn't put Claire in my vid but honestly I totally forgot she was on the show because I haven't seen her in season 5 and she was barely in season 4. You've got some crazy talent, keep it up.
