[datrumaniac]

i feel sorry for capt. jack i have never wanted to live forever sure it be great for the first 300 years but after that man id go insane with boredom and losses i outlived

[Buffyanp]

@datrumaniac I agree. Thanks for watching.

[mal35m]

This is one of my favorite songs and my favorite hero.

[Buffyanp]

@mal35m Thank you so much :D

[bradMi80]

This song set you back sorry

[Buffyanp]

@bradMi80 Sorry you feel that way. Thanks for watching though.

[clara2768]

It´s like this song was written for him.

[Buffyanp]

@clara2768 I know right? Thanks :D

[Asymma]

Song choice= epic.

[Buffyanp]

@Asymma Thank you :D

[Raveshinu]

Ianto does seem to play the damsel in distress rather well.......

[Buffyanp]

@Raveshinu Yes he really does LOL

[SupaKawaiiFY]

Why does he have to be gay?? He's too cute!

[Buffyanp]

@SupaKawaiiFY LOL which one b/c GDL is straight and married :D

[MadHunterThief]

@Buffyanp Typical. All the decent men are taken or on the other bus. (Or Time Lords.)

[clara2768]

@MadHunterThief --ha ha...I remember this line!

[boblarryphil]

@SupaKawaiiFY I know it makes me soo sad

[SupaKawaiiFY]

@boblarryphil Doesn't it just kill you inside when you see gorgeous homosexual men?? A little piece of me withers away every damn time....

[clara2768]

@SupaKawaiiFY -- but Jack isn´t homo per sey. He´s up for grabs....pun intended.

[SupaKawaiiFY]

@clara2768 In real life he has a partner and is flaming. You're pun though.....Hahaha very punny :P

[MultiBelle22]

@SupaKawaiiFY Actually, Ianto is bisexual - Russell T Davies said so x

[clokkerfoot]

i heart this.

[Buffyanp]

@clokkerfoot Thank you :D

[clokkerfoot]

@Buffyanp welcome!

[MultiBelle22]

Aw! Jack really is Ianto's hero!

[Buffyanp]

@MultiBelle22 Yeah, he really is :)  Thanks!

[SupernaturalSamfan]

God; Jack is smooth!

[Buffyanp]

@MultiBelle22 I know right? Thanks.

[MultiBelle22]

RIP Ianto!

[Buffyanp]

@MultiBelle22 :(

[MultiBelle22]

@Buffyanp - don't be sad. We can still see him in older episodes of Torchwood - or in the books x

[Buffyanp]

@MultiBelle22 True :) thanks for watching the vid.

[iNarlyWebcast]

i love at 2:12 how jack perfectly cuts Owen off 

[Buffyanp]

@iNarlyWebcast Thanks so much :)

[DC11961]

Let's start with this: I friggin' LOVE this video!!! ^^ *grins* And, I don't know about you but, my favorite scene is the one here Jack is laying on his bed in Torchwood shirtless staring up at the ceiling (which we call camera xP). ;D

[Buffyanp]

@DC11961 Oh YAY, so glad you like the vid :) Yup, that's a good scene. Thanks :)

[kattierowe]

@DC11961 Not Gwen walking in on him and Ianto in the greenhouse? *fans self*

[DC11961]

@kattierowe Ooh good point. :S Now I'm torn between that one, the Stopwatch moment, and Jack shirtless on his bed. AGH! >.<

[kattierowe]

@DC11961 so many hawt scenes. so much eye-candy *happy sigh*

[DC11961]

@kattierowe Likewise! =D And aw! Eyecandy! Ianto's nicknwme! ^_^ and *sighs happily*

[pamlovesharvy]

hey great video. Can you tell me what episode 1:14 is from? Thanks. :D

[Buffyanp]

@pamlovesharvy Thank you :) That clip is from Countrycide - Episode 6 Season 1.

[Supermanuel]

They should cast him to play superman

[Buffyanp]

@Supermanuel Thanks

[CptApollo630]

i love the part where Jack's riding the Tardis and how well you tied the music into it, good job with the editing

[Buffyanp]

@CptApollo630 OH wow, thank you so much! :)

[GriffinPilgrim]

Cutest couple on British T.V. And I'm straight.

[Buffyanp]

@GriffinPilgrim I totally agree :) Thanks :)

[347Nitro]

Lovely Thrace -- simply lovely. Perfect music for Jack and riding fast (or for a driving song). Fantastic...fantastic....FANTA­STIC!!!!

[Buffyanp]

@347Nitro *beams happily* awww, thank you so much. Glad you liked it :)

[luvweirdos]

let me just say at the "white knight upon a firey steed" and jack's riding the tardis made me giggle to no end

[Buffyanp]

@luvweirdos *giggles* Yeah, that bit makes me laugh too. Hope you enjoyed the vid :)

[LDJ27]

@luvweirdos same ;D

[Kerriangel]

as the founder of Denial Land where ianto, Tosh and owen all live happily as royalty, i can say that i love this vid and other ones which have no coe whatsoever for thier own reasons.

and me and a friend have a dance to this that we always did on the bus laste year, well it was arm movements lol

[Buffyanp]

@Kerriangel *giggles* Actually, if you look at my LJ I'm the Queen of Denial from teh Land of Perpetual Hope where everyone lives, nobody dies, and there is ALWAYS a happy ending :)

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed the vid so much.

*whispers* I used to dance to his and had moves when I was younger LOL

[Kerriangel]

im the founder/leader of the armies/princess of Denial Land of Perpetual Hope then. Ianto is my second in command and Owen is your King :P

[Buffyanp]

@Kerriangel *giggles* YAY :)

[EvergreenSelena]

This is one of my favourite fanvid ever. The last time i watched this video was around 6 month ago - it was, and still is, *the* song/video i associate with *that*... now watching it on the anniversay, slightly less emotional, almost gave me renewed hope....:)

[Buffyanp]

Oh thank you so much. Sorry you assoc it with "that" *HUGS. But I'm glad you enjoy the vid. Thanks!

[Glhrd]

Quite epic. Great editing/timing on the drum bits with the clip flashing... I imagine that was a difficult effect to do, but it looks great. EXCELLENT choice of clips and you really distributed them well. Definitely a 5-star vid. Quality video, for sure.

[Buffyanp]

Wow! What a fantastic comment. Thank you so much. I'm thrilled you think it's that good. Thank you!!1

[Glhrd]

Well, I noticed you replied to everyone's comments, so I knew you actually read them... so I tried to express how much I really love this vid! This is what a fanvid should look like, not some random assimilation of lengthy clips set to music, and I appreciate the effort you obviously put into it! :D Keep up the good work. *goes to look at your other vids*

[Buffyanp]

Thanks! I do try to make sure I respond to all comments. If people take the time, the least I can do is thank them. I'm just so overwhelmed by your comment. You've totally made my day. It did take a lot of effort, was a labor of love. Thank you so much! Hope you enjoy the others. Check out Oblivious and Who Wants To Live Forever (tissue warning)

[Glhrd]

Do they have spoilers for CoE? I mean, I know who dies and all, but I haven't actually watched it... I keep meaning to, but I kind of want Ianto to still be alive in my head.... I'm in denial, lol. XD

[Buffyanp]

Oblivious does not. Who Wants to Live forever DOES. HUGE MASSIVE SPOILERS. But if you already know about Ianto...And I'm right there with you..in denial land. In fact, one might say I'm the Queen of Denial land...well at least in my fics that is :)

[Glhrd]

How about this, I promise to watch it and comment after I've seen CoE, sound good? XD *goes to watch that other one*

[Buffyanp]

Sounds Good. Requiem, and Empty Chairs and Empty Tables also have spoilers for COE :)

[Glhrd]

I shall keep it in mind, hehe

[Buffyanp]

Cool :)

[horseemad222]

AWESOME video :)

jack and iano :D yay!!

[horseemad222]

*ianto

(i cant type)

[Buffyanp]

Aww, thank you so much! *beams*

[chewylost]

is he gay or something? Why was he kissing a man?

[Buffyanp]

His character is an omnisexual and yes, he was kissing a man - his partner.

[bbyriceball101]

Ha! Good song for Jack! :) Nicely done

[Buffyanp]

Thank you :)
