Good, and I'm all for people using older music. My one qualm is that the cutting of the scenes in some instances is a bit too choppy and makes my head spin (will rewatch and give specific instances if you want.)

That said, I like:
- The intercut kisses, which actually don't feel gloppy and shippy with the song.
- The oversaturated look and a lot of the grungy, faded feel of it.
- Some points where the lyrics fit the song pretty accurately. Importantly, all the choruses (chori?) work well with the lyrics, which is good, because it's the most famous/stick-in-your-mind point of the song.

Ugh! Wouldn't you know, I was just working on a Kate vid to this song.

One thing that was really good about your vid was all the fast cuts. And you really fit the lyrics too, it was pretty good. I'm not sure whether I should keep working on mine or not though. I had some different ideas, but mine needs work.

thefilmchick,

It would be great if you could tell me what are the scenes that made your head spin... and I'm really glad you liked the video...

and, Distress Signal,
keep working on your video, you probably have some better ideas... it would be great to see how someone else would do a video like this...and... thanks for the compliments

Mainly the 'met a man from China, went down to Geisha Minah' portion - maybe it's just b/c you're switching back and forth between Kate, Jin, and a few other people, but I start to get lost there. It picks back on track at 'fastidious and precise,' but for at least those few seconds my brain was sitting there on pause.

If other people don't have the same problems, feel free to ignore. Some other points I noticed on a rewatch I like - Kate putting up her hair near the end, and the dive into the waterfall, are both at what seem like just the right moments, too.

Pretty great job!

Love the song. And good editing (both on the clips and on the song itself). Keep up the good work.

Heya Belxf!

What a cool and fun Kate video. I love this song and you did such a great job with it, especially your editing. EXCELLENT beat use.
Loved it! Can't wait for your next one.
