     Awww, thank you so much, Jemma! This is actually one of my more fav of my own vids (but shhhhhh, don't tell the others or they'll get all ). The story just seemed to fit the music and I really hoped I'd be able to make it at least a little convincing! Plus, it has lots of scruffy!future!Jack and I LOOOOOVE scruffy!future!Jack!

    Thanks so much for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed! *hugs!* ♥!

     AGH! I loved it! Best Jack character study I've ever seen! SO ANGSTY! With great music! I think the whole idea of this vid was great! The end where we find out everyone died because of Jack (including Juliet) was so awesome! It really seemed like he was so upset because of that. Gah..can't think of anything else to add except huge well done on getting Best Angst! You deserved it!

    Why, thank you kindly! I made it for my LJ header and decided last night to cut it down into something more sig-sized! I'm ridiculously proud of it!

    meandi: No worries, Johanna! I'm just glad you liked the vid! I've loved this song for a long time but when I heard it again the other day, I was amazed at how well it really seemed to fit Jack at the end of Season 3! (I saw it done as a Season 1 Jack vid years ago on another site and so didn't do my own version of it then like I wanted to. But I'm glad it worked out this way so that I "saved it" for now! ) I'm so glad you liked the audio bits, the coloring and the lyric interpretation (yep, that was the right word! )! Thanks so very much for watching and commenting! *hugs!*

     OMG, Ais - sorry I haven't commented until now!
    *begs for forgivness*

    Anyhow - and once again - OMG.
    This is the Jack angst vid. It was totally brilliant in so many ways!
    First, I love the whole flipping between the Cindy-scene and the other flashforward scene. I never really thought about til now - how much alike those two scenes are in the camera angle-way. Great job!

    Second - the colouring and use of clips were just stunning, as usual. Lyric interpretations (I'm sure I got that word wrong this time too ) were awesome aswell.

    And I loooooved the audio-over-video-thing. Especially in the beginning, "I made a promise I couldn't keep" and there was Jack saying "I'm gonna get you all off this island". And that was the whole aura through this video; Jack can' stop thinking about his promise and how he couldn't be the hero people wanted him to be.
    Really emotional - just perfect!

    Great job, Ais!

     Awww, nobody's auntied me in a long time! *squishes you*

    (And yes, "auntied" is now a verb, haven't you heard? )

    Wow, that's some extremely high company to be included in with! Thank you so much, hon! *hugs!*

I worked on that thing all the way through the vid, still tinkering with the cookie cutter up until I was almost ready to do the final rendering! That's one of the few times when Baby Vegas just couldn't do the precision that the Big Vegas can, but I hope we faked it well enough that it didn't matter, lol! And *squee!* Nothing tickles me more than hearing that somebody wanted to save one of my vids permanently! Thanks so very much! *hugs!*


    I love all of your vids, Ais! And this has officially become part of my top three Jack vids of all time (in no particular order; Runaway Train, KajaM's Bury Me and Di's Imaginary Lives). Seriously, it's amazing, and you're grasp of Baby Vegas is just masterful. *bows down, chanting 'Kudos'*

     Argh, I apparently have been on a runaway train myself, which is why I haven't been back here in way too long! *glares at RL for keeping me away* Apologies!

    PsychoCynic: Who wants a happy Jack vid, indeed... Thanks so much for the details, always very, very appreciated! I'm glad you liked the things like the "faded" parts; they were really fun to do! Thanks again! *smishes you*

    Hobbes: Heh, that was my sooper sekrit goal with this one, to make a "canon AU" vid. This is my prediction of why Jack was so distraught in the finale and what brought him to be on that bridge. Well, as much as I could predict the future whilst using "past" footage. I was wondering if anybody would notice I used that coffin-breaking scene again! It was my Angsty!Jack the second tribute to "Cry Me..." aka Angsty!Jack the first... Plus, I just really liked the way it worked in that scene and I was SO hoping that it would turn out good! I dunno about "masterpiece" but I appreciate the sentiment anyway! And, right here in front of everybody on the Internet, I'm pinkie-promising you personally, Warren, that I WILL make a Locke vid before Season 4 begins.

    Whether or not it's sucky, I can't say... But by crikey, I'll make it! *squeezy hug!*

    dayln03: Aw, thanks, hon! I've really appreciated all of your encouragement with my vidding! There's no telling how many vids I would've given up on and buried in the backyard if not for all of the lovely things that fabulous vidders like yourself have said to me! *smishes you*

    Trinity184: Thank you! I was so happy to finally get the chance to do a Jacket vid; I love them so much! I'm so happy that the sunset manip has been so well-received! Thanks again!
