I love this so much! Sherlock is just a step away from being a hero and if John believes in him hard enough he might just get there. Also, I was quite reluctant to click on this at first becuase I'd only heard the Footloose version of this song which didn't seem like I would fit at all. Lovely!
I can't even... how do I compliment? It's one of my favorite songs since forever, with my new favorite show, spliced with perfect lines in between and-- and-- well, the only other thing I can say is MARRY ME!
So good. I love this version of the song. And of course, fantastic vid! Love the voiceover at the end. Nice touch using the effect on Moriarty. And so many fab shots of Martin giving us that "nerves of steel" John Watson. ::sigh::
You know, for all Sherlocks' "there's no such thing as heroes" talk, he sure spends a lot of time dashing about London in a very, VERY cape-like great coat, saving lives and posing in "strong-but-tortured" poses... :D
I really love the fact that you used this song when Sherlock said: "DON'T make people into heroes, John. Heroes don't exist and if they did, I wouldn't be one of them."
This is wonderfully done! The simplicity of cutting between scenes without a lot of fancy filters is actually kind of refreshing, it really works with the song and audio you put in it :)
Oh my. Only a video this good could make me sit through this version of the song. Well done with the clip editing, and I see why you chose this version of Hero, even if I really, really hate it. Beautiful work.
@bonbonnoel Thanks so much! I have an embarrassingly large number of other Sherlock vids if you'd like to check those out! ;) You can see how I procrastinate!
And I just used iMovie. One day, when I have a bit more disposable income, I'd love to get some fancier editing program.
U ROCK I LOVE THIS SONG I LOVE THIS SHOW I LOVE PPL WHO MAKE SHERLOCK VIDS(not really that would b weird) BUT HONESTLY U ROCK THANK U SOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gah I'm in love with this!! I love all the references to Moriarty, especially "Somewhere just beyond my reach there's someone reaching back for me". I've always thought of that as someone good reaching back for me, but flip it on its head and it could have been written to describe Sherlock/Moriarty!
Excellent! Just excellent! Under normal circumstances I would wish that you had used the original song, but you made this version fit so well with the show, I don't think I'd like this video as much any other way!
You've got everything that made the show great in there but with the perfect audio clips and emotive shots that put across John's attempts to make Sherlock a hero. Its brilliant. i love it. :) xxx
I really dislike this version of the song, but whatever. Still great editing and all that.

he might be on the side of angels - but don't think that makes him an angel.

He saves lives and stands ominously on rooftops.
He is the definition of a hero.

Hmm I wouldn't say he's a hero... He's something greater than that - The world's one and only consulting detective!
Great video and editing!~<3
(He really is a hero even if he denies it)
