To the song "Strung Out" by the Virgin Millionaires (a local Indianapolis band). While I would LOVE to see this vid, I'm just too intimidated by the idea of a character study, and at that...this song is specifically about drug addiction, so I think it'd have to be a Charlie/drug character study and that just flat out scares me. But, it's got great beats, good lyrics... (I have written them out, but I'm missing a little tiny piece because I can't quite make it out and they haven't published their lyrics on myspace or anything, yet). Any takers? *begs*

Strung Out

Here on the other side
Everything passes by
Lost in a moment
We think, "I will never be here again"
(somethingsomething? ) feel just fine
Something to blow my mind
This is my only defense so dont hold me down

Cause I'll never be lonely
I will always have you
To get me by;
Keep me so strung out
You're the one; you're the only
There is no one like you
That gets me high;
Keeps me so strung out.

Keeps me so strung out.

With just a little time
All of these fears subside
There is no need to resent
All the things I should have been
Moments they pass me by
I don't ask where or why
Now that I start my decent
Keep me hanging on

Cause I'll never be lonely
I will always have you
To get me by;
Keep me so strung out
You're the one; you're the only
There is no one like you
That gets me high;
Keeps me so strung out.

Keeps me hanging on

Cause I'll never be lonely
I will always have you
To get me by;
Keep me so strung out
You're the one; you're the only
There is no one like you
That gets me high;
Keeps me so strung out.

Cause I'll never be lonely
I will always have you
To get me by;
Keep me so strung out
You're the one; you're the only
There is no one like you
That gets me high;
Keeps me so strung out.

Keeps me so strung out
Keeps me so strung out

Just to mention the fact, it actually wouldn't have to be a Charlie/drug character study. Sometimes songs with the most "obvious" lyrics for one character can make really powerful vids for a character you'd never associate with them. Up until you make that awesome vid that shows how unexpectedly that song works for them, of course!

Granted, if you really want this to be a Charlie/drug character study, there's no reason why it shouldn't be. I just wanted to drop in and mention it didn't have to be.

And to look and see if there were any snacks in this thread... Got cookies?

...ok well I want it to be, then But yeah, you're right; hadn't thought of that, even though I should once in a while. My Greyscale vid was C/C/Heroine angst and I didn't even know that was what the song was precisely about (gf/bf/drug addiction angst), until I showed the vid to the writer of the song

I would proably make an attempt at this if I had the time But I've got three vids planned at the moment, and one of those includes a small Charlie character-study, but to a different song. So I would, but don't really have the time lol.
