Oh, that was eerie and haunting and cool. I love your use of color, and the integration of sound from the show.

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.

Wow, this was fantastic! Sad and dark and foreboding, but also still leaving room for some light and hope. I especially loved the sequence leading up to the opening of the door in The God Complex. And the lines from the show intermixed with the music were very well done.

[devohoneybee]

simply beautiful. very soulful.

[nancybrown]

Amazing stuff with this. The editing was perfect and creepy and right.

[purplefringe]

Oh god.

That was AMAZING.

How did you do that?? That was perfect and complex and layered and beautiful and meta and full of love and gosh I'm going to need to watch it at least eleventy one more times to get everything out of it that you have managed to put in there.

Argh.

[honeynoir]

This is completely fantastic! Loving the juxtapositioning and the colouring and the quotes from the show and that you've fit so many of Eleven's friends/family/ghosts in so perfectly. Oh, and Nine and Ten and Hurt!Doctor and the Dream Lord... And ending it with "and you are all I ever remember" -- absolutely perfect!

[coffeesuperhero]

This was just fantastic, oh my word. AMAZING WORK.

[clocketpatch]

How did you even do that? The editing, the colours, the EVERYTHING! With the quotes and the clips from the past layered over the amazing, amazing, AMAZING editing, this was so many layers of meta and deep. Sad, bittersweet, and beautiful. I love the way you end it, "You are loved" and "You are all I ever remember" Just gorgeous.

[elisi]

At some point I will have coherent feedback. Am still trying to get my head around everything. There might be meta.

[kass]

Oh, holy wow. This is gorgeous. I love your use of black and white (especially those clips from the minisode where the Doctor and River go on their first date and their last date) -- and your use of show dialogue layered atop the track -- just beautiful.

[a_phoenixdragon]

OMG...just...wow. I am truly stunned and cannot wait until this is de-anoned so I can save it properly and watch again and again...

*Whimpers with Joy*

*HUGS*

I've been putting off commenting on this for want of being able to put together words for it, but then I've been saying for awhile now that this show has broken meta. It has become way too big. There are too many layers and mirrors and iterations and words are just no longer sufficient for tackling it. The only thing that seems remotely up to the task is vidding, and I think this vid is a case in point.

Also it's really, really catchy *g*

Just . . . fantastic job.
