ROCK OUT!!! That was hot

Love the song (love the band

) Sweet use of the beats and I love the zoom in you did.

When I saw your lineup of characters being used, I knew Charlie would be last

haha. Great vid and congrats on making the top 3

I'm becoming quite predictable I'm afraid!

Of course I was going to end up with Charlie!

What a great video! Phew exhausted from watching that again cause it was so brilliant. Loved the rotating thing you did for the beat and there was some really good lyric use in there aswell as the rockin beat use. Great job!

I loved how every single beat, no matter how small or quiet it was, you used in this vid. That must've taken loads of work.

Awesome effects and zoom-ins, and like Paul said great use of the lyrics too.

Congrats on 3rd place, Cylune (Yay, didn't call you "cyclune" this time

).

Very cool!!

Apart from the really amazing beat use, I especially like the theme of your vid. Really refreshing, very stylish, a lot of fun to watch and very well edited.

My favourite part: "Now you do what they told ya" with Michael killing Ana and Libby. Wooooooooh!

Excellent work! Please, please more vids like that!

Amazing beat use! A perfect song choice, both for the theme of the video, and for it's beat! Excellent job!

Thank you so much guys! This was my first vid as a CM and I was really nervous about it! I worked on it for almost all of September when I'm usually done within a week with a vid. (And I never spent so much time looking for a song too... I wanted something I could tell a story so I'm glad the lyrics worked too!)

I intend to do more vid like that because they are really fun to do!

Thanks Paul for noticing that rotating thing!

And I'm on the Hall of Fame now!!

Niiiiiice!

I loved the beat use. Great work on that!

Also loved how appropriate the lyrics were! Particularly, the "now you do what they told you" and "... are those that wear crosses" (meaning Eko).

And thanks for telling me who the artist of this song was. I heard the song all the time and never knew who it was by.

Thanks PsychoCynic!!

I didn't know who was singing the song either but for some reason it was on my computer. Don't know how it ended there but I'm glad it did!

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!

RAGTM are like, one of my favourite bands. Even though this song was an anti-war song you made it fit Lost perfectly. Like it was written for the show!

Thank you so much IntoTheVoid! Weird that a song about anti-war and anti-racism fits so nicely with Lost!
