[bluepickledsnakes]

I love this sooo much. :)

[fatbabydave]

That's amazing! So good. Love the style of it.

Really nice to find amazing animation that for some reason doesn't have shiiiteload of views. x

[creepyflyer666]

Wait how can she have a nose in the shadow but not in the reflection??

[SafiaisMe]

@creepyflyer666 not her nose the edge of her fringe :)

[Zarbar711]

I think half of the views are from me. And not a second of my time was wasted!

[Quinnknights]

i keep coming back & watching this. wonderful.

[TheFlutterbyGirl]

can i ask, why is there not a heart on the puppet on the C4N'7 R3M1X35 album ?

[1997Geetax]

i love the simular links between ur videos <3 x

[Psycolotl]

i am truly blown away with your animation style, it looks great!

[MyRationalHypothesis]

I like the lyrics, don't really like the song/singer, and looove the animation. It's amazing

[ILUVTAIWTK]

When i first saw this, I thought he cut the strings off himself, but now that I watched it again, I am a bit confused, because he wouldn't be able to do things himself, wasnt he constantly controlled by her? AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHADG:SFLCONFUS­ION.

[Relgappo]

[GAGENOW]

At the end I was kind of like lol wut

[98Clank98]

I want to give that puppet a hug :(

[vikiknowsbest]

I wanted to listen to the song while I watch the lyrics but man I can't. This video wants me to watch it! (And yes, the girl's face surprised me)

[thekwlman11]

Such a deep song..

[EveAspinall]

This video deserves so many more views...

[CallForgotten]

This is so artistically brilliant!!!

[londonadienninja5638]

Do you read your comments? Cus this is amazing I can't stop watching it :D

[madalrox]

This is so clever, fab animations, i love it.

[SARAakaAWESOMENESS]

@jenniferhowl2008 hes crying cuz he cant control wat hes doing and i guess shes a puppet to like show she is being controled too? idk :)

[jenniferhowl2008]

i absolutely love the animation but can someone explain to me the ending? the puppet guy never knew the girl was a puppet too? and why was he crying? :D

[Winterpool18]

@jenniferhowl2008 I think that he was crying because he couldn't control his life, his girlfriend was making all his choices for him...And I think she's a puppet too because the guy could say 'I feel like a puppet on strings.' And the girl would be a puppet to kinda show that we're all controlled by SOMETHING.

That's my take on it, at least.

[skaterdude64]

Ah Tom Milsom <3

But the animation was a beautiful work of art- it completed the song perfectly :)

[londonadienninja5638]

That was really impressive. :)

[AmandaN114]

I love this! The style of the animation reminds me of a video by Kenna: "Hellbent", except that video uses claymation. 1000/10 for both the song and the video. Keep up the amazing work.

[0inuyasha0naruto0]

[chailisowns]

ur very talented

[peppercorncrisp]

WOW.

[Xxsam13xX]

i didnt spot the slightly different ending could you explain please sowwy

[smilinglimpet]

I don't blame you. The difference is very very slight. this version shows the stringless puppet on the floor for longer and the girls face for less time is all.

[BillyTheWonderFerret]

Woo yay awsome song Wicki wack for drizzle

Wow mazing

[geppy71]

That was very very cool. I especially loved the end.

[MeyouandHarold]

Wow. Really, really cool :D

[ChazDunn]

Wow!

Outdid yourself again :)

[shanaLOVESutube]

incredible

so creative

[alexfralexmelonwax]

you're a little bit amazing :) well done. really clever and goes perfectly with the song which is equally amazing. xxxxxxx

[LauriieeBubzx]

Aw, I love that. :)

[karenmeara]

I have to say, I think the best part of this song is the video. Amazing :-)

[StickyMATTISElol]

you should do this for a living! i love it so much :D xx

[zippy3421]

This is so awesome its such a clever idea, THE END IS SO SAD! Absolutely amazing, you should be partnered, you're fantastic. 5 stars and favorited!

[starstealer1195]

i liked the animation

[JareduPS]

Very nice O_O

[hpcrazy4eva]

Perfect! =]

[mialouise]

awesome!

[mialouise]

who are MP and DG?

:)

[fallofautumndistro]

It stands for Manic Pixie Dream Girl (it's a Paper Towns/John Green reference).

[channeIreview]

This version is equally awesome!!!

[WoWLumbar]

Kewl.

[jamers107]

you are AMAZING:) love you & your work:D

[RCT3man761]

this person didn't do this.

[mialouise]

sure he did :)

[RCT3man761]

no it even says it in the description.

[smilinglimpet]

I did make this video. I made it for Alan (who's link is in the sidebar-->) and he uploaded it as the official music video for the song (edited slightly differently towards the end and with official captions and copyright stuff) on his channel.

that's what it says in the description. sorry if that wasn't clear :P

[RCT3man761]

oh, thanx for telling me. Sorry about that.

[mialouise]

good work for apologising.

I won't say I told you so or gloat too much.

promise.

[Anyar88]

This is fantastic and inspiring (and i need inspiring because I have an illustration degree that won't pass itself lol)

Keep it up :)

[MimiMirj]

amazing <3

[helenso93]

i am speechless.

so good :D

[OpenYourSkies]

Awesome job, Ed. Keep it up. :)

[kaelijade]

soooo amazing

[doctornoise]

I'm glad I got to see both versions :) Good job mate! Very very well done. Wish I had the ability to do such fine animation work.

[BarryAldridge]

This is really good and I saw it on Alans channel first and saw your one.

Its nice to see a slightly different version of the video.

[Kdoran51]

Loves it Ed! awefully jealous of your creative endevours.

[jackeyramone]

This is so great, god i love this, song, lyrics, animation all in beautiful harmony

[imustbeTINO]

arggghhh i love your workkk <3

i really want a music video off you =[[[[

*throws money he doesnt have at you*

[mickeleh]

I watched this on Alan's channel. Watched it again on yours. I like your ending better. The last image hits with more punch landing on the beat. "Ever so slight" is also "ever so impactful" God is in the details.)

[fallofautumndistro]

The reason for the change Michael, is that I felt it lingered on his lifeless body far too long, and that the reveal was a bit short. Ed knew about the edit before I posted it, just FYI.

[mickeleh]

Producer's Cut versus Director's Cut? Storyboarder's cut versus Animator's cut? Thankfully Youtube is big enough for both versions. I'm jes' sayin' which one I like better.

[pyromaniacchica]

This is amazing

[sasialy]

This was really good. Well done

[MartinKSmith]

awesome :)

[Amiryfey]

This is beyond words, I wish I was only a quarter as talented as you *thumbs up*
