So happy to see KC and your vids back on LVI!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dunno if there's a better band than snow patrol for ensemble vids :P I honestly have lost interest in TVD with anything that doesn't involve Stefan/Caroline or Caroline herself lol I loved the montage from when the music picks up towards the ends; such powerful music and you picked awesome scenes to go with it; like all the hugging moments, i particularly liked the one of Elena shoving that guy off her lap and Caroline turning all vamp-badass gold from me

Wow wow wow! This was so well done! I loved the song choice and the coloring was amazing, but what I especially loved was the slower beat use at the slower part of the song, and then how it just explodes at the end. I love this show so much, and this was really a perfect summary of why it's awesome. Well done!

Thank you Kat! You're so sweet! And it's been way too long.

I totally ship Stefan/Caroline (and well, Caroline/Tyler, and Caroline/Stefan/Tyler.... uh, I'm bad that way.) And I love this show in general. I have my own issues with Damon, but whatever, the rest of the show is good enough that I can overlook him. (And the terrible product placement.)

I always LOVED that shot of Elena shoving Jeremy off of her lap when Bonnie has her locked in the house when Stefan's in the tomb. I was totally determined to use it in this vid so I'm super stoked you liked it.

Thank you so much hon!

ETA: You know I searched and I could not find an ENSEMBLE non-shippy vid to this song. I was so surprised!

Thank you! I was really determined to make a great ensemble piece because I just love this show and there is a severe lack of ensemble vids for it. So thank you so much!

Yay for a new KC vid on LVI after far too long!

Anyway, I really enjoyed this! It's a great song anyway (I'm a sucker for Snow Patrol, what can I say? ) and you used it to great effect for the ensemble. I also loved how you let it build so naturally to that huge kick in at the almost 3 minute mark. I really loved that shot of Caroline seeing her fangs in the mirror and how it just had so much emotion to it with the music swelling up behind it.

Awesome work, I loved it! (And have already been back to watch it again while I was trying to type out this comment, lol! ) ♥!

Great vid, KC!!! I love all the action-y stuff towards the end!

HOLY....WOWZA!!!! Absolutely INCREDIBLE vid!! :D I loved every single second of that! I really need to catch up on this show since I've only seen the first season but you totally rocked that vid and made me want to watch s2 right this second lol I adored the whole flow of the vid, how it all builds up to the ending...EPIC!! I'm at a loss for words, but basically, this was A-MA-ZING!! :D

That was Amazing,such a perfect song choice,your clip choice was perfect.Fantastic.gold

Aislynn: Thank you, thank you! I have probably said this a billion times but I had huge reservations about using this song because (at least in the past) it was a pretty popular vid song, but I did look around and had a hard time finding ensemble/non-shippy vids to it for any fandom, so I figured what the heck. Plus, like you said, it's a great song! Thank you again!

Uruviel: Thanks very much! That was definitely the funnest part to vid too!


emmasholi Wowza! Thank you for your amazing comment. Hee! I have seen this vid so many times through vidding it that I forget how impacting it was in my brain when I conceived it! So thank you for letting me know I achieved my goal!

EMMALOUISE Thank you, Emma!
