YES! You made it!!! that was soo incredibly moving and beautiful Cynthia! Although as a song prefer the oasis version, this version was so much more appropriate to the story. You kept me totally captivated the whole time! not once did I look away from the screen, and ive probably watched it 20 times on youtube! You interpreted the lyrics wonderfully! I loved at the end you had Charlie and Desmond looking at each other through the glass, and the flashes of Charlie picking him up. soo beautiful!!! Amazing job!!! |

awww
Thanks for making this video. It was well worth the wait. I really loved that you went with the Ryan Adams cover. It made it more interesting and added a lot more depth. Nothing you did in this video was too cheesy or cliche. It was really inspiring and touching. I know charlie meant a lot to you and this was a great way to pay homage to his character. _________________

I know that had to be so hard for you to do, especially since you've been planning this one for so long and this was certainly not the outcome that you wanted! But you did a breath-takingly beautiful job with it, just a perfect homage to Charlie and his brave and heroic actions!
The ending was just gorgeous! Out of all of the final shots you could've picked, ending on Des watching Charlie fade back into the water (instead of on Charlie himself) just was so right. In the end, it really was Charlie who became Desmond's wonderwall instead of the other way around.
Just beautiful! *hugs* |

Thank you so much guys for the fast (!!!) comments!

I adore this version by Ryan Adams but I prefer the Oasis one. However, the original version is a little too upbeat and wouldn't be appropriate for the sad turn this story took. Thanks so much for the nice comment here and at youtube Trey!

I did this vid without using my usual gimmicks...I love to work with special effects but the only ones I use in this vid are some color adjustment and the soft borders. In a way, I thought the simplicity of it would work better. I was afraid people would find it boring... glad it wasn't so for you!

I hope you'll be about to make another vid about Charlie... Thanks for the nice comment! Sorry I made you cry again.

I was sure that little Charlie was going to beat the universe. However I have no merit picking the last shot... I don't think I'll ever be able to use the last scene of Charlie crossing himself before dying.
Thank you so much for all the encouragements over the last few months over this vid. Very much appreciated. That first "Non-Request thread ever" was a lot of fun!! _________________

Wow! Just beautiful!
I'd never heard this version of the song, but it fits perfectly - it has a sad and almost haunting quality.
This is a wonderful tribute to Charlie. Very moving. |

That video was so sweet! A perfect tribute to Charlie ... I made a wonderwall video a while ago ... but I think this one was so much better!

I'm so pleased that you've finally made this.
You did a really great job with it.
I prefer the Oasis version of the song but this this one was much more fitting and really bittersweet.
A great tribute to Charlie's death. I know how much you loved him *hugs* |

This makes me cry. Every. Single. Time.
I think I forgot to tell you before that I love the part where it says "By now you should've somehow realized what you gotta do" just as Desmond decides he has to save Charlie from the arrow. Because I always knew he would save Charlie there, but he didn't know it until then. It's really amazing how you can pace it to match up with the lyrics so well.
I've never actually heard the Oasis version of the song, but I love this one. It's perfect for the story. So sad. _________________

Heather - Thanks! I know you're not into slower vids but I'm so glad I was able to keep your interest. Yep, Charlie was my favorite and I'll miss him... I've been rooting for the little guy for 3 years and I didn't think the death of a fictional character would affect me so much.
monkeycatrabbit - Thanks! I'll miss Charlie too. The show won't be the same without him.
Charlie - so sorry you've been crying so much. (you were not alone. ) Thanks for the very nice comment.
leyosura - I had never heard this version before but KC had it in a fanmix and I really thought it was more appropriate. Thanks for the wonderful comment.
buffyfan145 - Thanks! Sorry I made you cry. (nah!!! That was my intention from the start. I feel as cruel as the writers)
Ashleigh - Thanks so much! Yep, finally made it after months of saying I would. wish I could have used the Oasis version...
jelly!!!!! I'm so glad you noticed that part... yep, I thought that the plot in catch-22 fitted really well with that part of the song. Thank you so much again for that wonderful graphic and the constant encouragement. I love you! _________________
