The beat use was fantastic and I really liked the bits where you like showed the different characters with the how far we've come parts

But yeah, amazing video

That was so AWESOME Julia!

Your best yet. Lyric interp. was perfect and the beat use was crazy. I loved how intense it was and how it went threw the whole series. One of the best ensemble vids I've seen in a long time.

I loved the ending too. Brilliant job.

Nice zoom in on the da-da-da-dum triple beats. As others have said, beat use seemed to me to be spot on.

Good use of characters' "journeys" (God, that sounds cheesy) with the 'let's see how far we've come.' It's a good way to get rid of the repetitive feeling of those lyrics.

One quibble: I'd have shown dead Charlie in his 'Let's see how far we've come' part, only because the video gives the impression he's still alive through the end, given that his last clip is from 'Greatest Hits.'

Nikki- Thank you!!! (((HUGS)))

J.D.- Thank you so much!!!

Dennis- Thank you!!! You know that means a lot coming from you, I really appreciate it!

FilmChick- Aw, thank you! Yeah--I used the clip from Greatest Hits since it's right before he dove down to what was ultimately his death. I can definitely see your point, but I figured anyone who was watching would know that was at his end. Thanks for the advice, though.

HOW HAVE I NOT COMMENTED ON THIS HERE!?!?

Julia, this was EPIC. It was everything I wanted and more. You took one of my favorite songs of all time, one of my favorite shows of all time, and put them together into one of my favorite vids of all time <3

What a wonderful ensemble, Julia! I loved it! I really really liked the "Let's see how far we've come" parts where you showed a clip of the characters from each season. I smiled so much when I saw you included Charlie, Claire and Aaron!

Love it, gorgeous job! I really like your little disclaimer at the end too btw

lol.
Amazing work!

This video really shows what lost is all about. My favorite part is everytime the song says "Lets see how far we've come". Everytime it said that, the scenes you showed were perfect. It expresses what they really went through and how much they've grown. I lvoe it ! And I also love the picture at the end

Gorgeous ensemble! You really showed how far they've come, indeed! I loved you starting and ending with music section with mini!Jack's eyes like that. Great way to bookend things! Awesome work, I really enjoyed it a bunch!

Oh! This was just fantastic Julia!!

I really loved how you had a different clip from each season on the 'lets see how far we've come' bits for each Lostie

Awesome job, such a great ensemble vid! And completely awesome beat use too, particularly at the end with the drum roll part, I loved how you ended it with little Jack's eye too! Amazing job!
