YOU DID THE VID YOU DID THE VID OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE IT IT IS SO AWESOME THANK YOU. I just KNEW that someone talented could make something AWESOME out of that song and I was riiiight :D This is somehow exactly how I imagined it and yet entirely different and unique. I loved it ALL. I love the way you opened the vid on the poor raggedy-looking TARDIS, and switched from Oswin to Eleven on the opening beats. I really didn't expect Oswin at all, and yet it was perfect—both of them locked in their own heads, unable to face terrible realities ♥ And then the music room, heart of the house, the tomb and the not-hearing theme vs. "I heard these words in my head" and "I can always hear you." eeee oh god. The choice of the images and audio bits was just so utterly fitting and beautiful and spot-on I just can't. THERE WAS A SHOT OF ELEVEN'S CLOSED RIGID HAND. And Eleven's beautiful mourning face. And the shot you chose for "I was in a shaken state". I was flailing madly at all the River/Eleven flashbacks, going further and further back to the beginning of them when the chorus went "Here I go again, feelings I cannot describe…"—that was another one of the things I hadn't imagined on that song at all (and believe me, I've sat there squeeing at the lyrics a WHILE) and argh how can you be so perfect and have the bloody perfect idea oh dear oh my heart. I LOVED how you had the two of them in black-and-white at first, and then switch to colour during the Last Night shot, it was just beautiful. I loved how you showed the Ponds in there. I LOVED how you had Eleven smiling at Clara and gripping her little hand when River said "Don't travel alone". The Clara parts were just lovely—I can't believe you put bouncy!monk!Eleven on "I got me dreaming of rock and roll"!!!! Clara in the part about standing up and living again, of course. Eeeee. But then it switched again to darkness with the Great Intelligence in the tomb… It was so beautiful to show the stars winking out on "Here all over the place". Loved the mirroring between Clara falling and being caught by the Doctor, and then the Doctor falling and Clara jumping into the timestream to save him. And then "faces I don't recognize" on various echoes of her running after the various versions of him, and Clara's message, Clara's mission. It's perf. And the mirroring between the Doctor holding Clara's hand and River's. I loved the echo part, so intense—"you should have faded by now" and you showed the fallen Gallifrey bottle too, ghhhhh—and I love you even freaking more and HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE for mirroring Clara and Berlin!River as they turned and tossed their hair. That was just for the feels and gah these women own me :D
"I met you, I met her, I met them"—that's such a key part and I love your interpretation of it—I just gasped when the Whisperman stepped through River's ghost, and "meeting them", of course, the Doctors. "How could I ever prevent" with the Hide shots of Doctor stepping out cautiously—how are you so clever. "The escape to my own mind's den" showing the darker sides of the Doctor, with Mr. Clever and Hurt. I LOVE the way you used the Doctor's room during the GI's speech, and added Eleven's quote to the Dream Lord and the Time Lord Victorious oh GOD! You put the Time Lord victorious in there! You used Nine from the Dalek episode, so raw and amazing! You had Donna hug the Doctor when River shouted "Shut up! You are loved!" And Jack and the Ponds! ♥♥♥ And those closing quotes. *dead* I can't believe it. My expectations from such a vid were sky-high and you just went and owned everything and left me a mess of feels. THANK YOU SO MUCH I AM HYSTERICAL.
