OMGOSH Nikki! I loved it! That was SO sad and moving it gave me chills and made me well up

Beautifully done, and your beat use rocked

I especially liked the "I will never be good" bits and all the young Kate stuff worked so well, ooh and the ending too! Awesome stuffs!

*goes to watch again*

Thanks Emma! I'm glad to hear you thought it was emotional enough to bring tears! That is always such a great compliment and yay! Thanks for mentioning my beat use...I never think I'm any good at beat use so it means a lot for you to say that! *HUGS* and thanks again for my beautiful vid pic!

oh gorgeous nikki!

i loved it

i loved the audio at the end. was that at the end of the song or did you add that? the 'are you a good girl? all the time?' i also loved how you repeated the audio "that I would never be good' at the start and at the end; as the phrase has meaning in both phases of her life.

loved the young kate clips as well, and the sixth sense scene was gorgeous!!! it fit so well.

have to say; i only quickly scanned the summary and saw R and Thomas as the singer and thought it was Rob Thomas. :

so for about two minutes i was like. when's rob gonna come in...then checked it again :S

wonderful job!! i didn't realize how enraptured i was in it until the end

edit:

btw; if it weren't for the lack of Sarah song and the use of non-Lost clips; than this would be almost perfect for the contest, lol

probably a little too shippy with the use of tom and kevin and jack and sawyer and stuff; but hey; it aint for the comp, is it?

Ele, thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the clips I choose.

Kat, Wow, thanks for your amazing comment and i'm LOLing about the "Rob Thomas"part...

Oh and no I didn't add in the audio at the end about being a good girl....it was in the song...too perfect right?

I love Rosie Thomas! She has such great songs for vidding.

Wonderful Kate character study, Nikki! I just loved everything about this vid! The song and clip choice were great, and all the voice overs worked really well, specially the "I'll never be good" part! The ending was soooo good... and sooo sad! I love it!

The scenes with young Kate worked really well, also!
Awesome work, Nikki!!

WOW. The ending to that was just chilling! I LOVED all the audio overlays. They were absolutely perfect!!! Beautiful character study. The "flashbacks" of Kate seeing Wayne abuse her mother and then with the audio from the marshal-wow amazing and perfect!! This was so inspiring. Fantastic job Nikki! I loved it

Wow what an awesome character study Nikki

The song was just so perfect, oh gosh the audio at the end that was a great fit and how awesome that it's part the song

Your audio choice was also very fitting for the video

The young Kate clips worked perfectly as well

Awesome job!

Bel, Thanks so much I love that you loved everything about it!! Your comment made me so happy!

Jemma, awww inspiring? Thanks that is so sweet of you to say!!!! I'm glad you liked the ending...it just kind of randomly came to me and I was like OH!! I have to do that! So I'm glad you found it chilling!!

Charlee, Thanks! I know that song rocks! I've been wanting to make a Kate vid to it for years and finally got around to finishing it!!

Nikki! I saw this before school and I didn't have time to reply! OMG this was awesomenesss. I agree with Jemma, it was really inspiring. I loved your idea to show all of the men Kate was with, and to show her as a little girl was really creative and it was so real. Also great audio choices, it was very emotional and soo well edited. This was just an amazing character study for Kate, and it was an interesting way to see her as a child, and then show all of her relationships.
