Without a doubt the best Spike tribute on YT. Great editing that goes perfectly with the song. It's like this song was written specifically about Spike. Brilliantly done. And might I add, what an incredible and complex character. Spike is a work of art.
@arrabella1134:06 is from the last or 2nd to last episode of the final season. Buffy gives him the pendant that Angel gave her so it can be worn by the one with a soul that is dead.
@arrabella1134:06 is from the last episode or second to last episode of the final season. Buffy passes on the pendant that helps save her and the potential slayers.
This song is perfect for Spike. It is very much a Character study. This song is actually done by Fred Durst and someone else, one of my few favorite rockstar songs.
Although I think Angel is the more heroic (think like Superman-ish) and Spike is an unwilling hero, not an anti-hero like the Punisher, despite the evil deeds he did, he was not in control of them. He is more like Wolverine, an unwilling hero who has a past of people controlling him and making him be the very dangerous bitch. He broke out of it, went to LA and started drinking the second he became corporeal again. Just like Logan (Wolvie) would've done. Angel goes to LA and starts saving dames.
Just like with Angel, he doesn't revert to the original William. Even though he has his original soul back. His experiences have changed him. Spike also had an intense love for a good woman, I think this game him a small inkling of a moral compass. Where Angelus despised all that is humanity, Spike was forced to embrace it through a chip, not an ensoulment. So Spike had to deal with it a completely different way, he decided to force himself to become a good man, out of necessity and love.
(cont) That's why Angelus and Angel were soooo different. And in the dream sequence with Faith and Angelus in Angel S4, where we see Angel and Angelus fight and talk it out, you can see it. Now, with Spike (even though in reality it oculd just be plot induced stupidity, but I'm trying to make sense of it), was a squirmy little man with the heart of a poet. When Drusilla sired him he became a frantic, thrill-seeking warrior. So again, a huge change of personality. But when he gets his soul back
(cont) Because he would know at this point what it would do. I know you can't control how happy you are all the time, especially during sex with a loved one. But I think that knowledge would prevent it from being perfect. But still, an unnecessary risk.
As for Spike and Buffy; First, Spike's personality didn't change as extremely as Angel's did. Angel literally was two different people, and I think Angel has multiple personality disorder, manifested mystically by having his soul removed
I think that a huge different is that Angel changed and spike didn't. Spike was and is still the same person, only his goals change. Even as a poet he always wanted to proof him self, he wanted to be recognised and after he was sired, he stil got his insperation out of the things he saw and heard, even his torture style came out of a remark he heard as a poet (i rather have a railroad spike put into my head than listening to another of that guys poets).
@engeltjebaleno, I also think that Angelus and Angel are closer together than either would like to admit. But yeah, it would be interesting, however, to see a story where evil Spike encounters good Spike in his own mind. I think there should be a story where Spike's soul gets captured and trapped in a flask and Angel has to go save it, it would be so much more interesting than Buffy jumping in (although she should be a part of it). To have Angel fight for Spike's soul? and-
@engeltjebaleno, have to throw toes with the Evil Spike again? That would really raise some questions. I wonder if the soulless Spike, without the chip, would try killing Buffy again or a few slayers. I don't see why he wouldn't. Angel and Angelus are clearly multiple personalities. But I think Spike/Spike (lol) are as well. But Spike having fought for his soul, had a different reaction to gaining it than Angel, who had destiny thrust upon him. Spike sought out his destiny after Drusilla.
@engeltjebalena, as you stated earlier. :) Maybe I'll write a few fanfics when I get done with my Punisher stuff and my original (and hopefully good) stories that I'm doing.
i'd love to read the fanfics. The idea of good spike/bad spike fighting should be quite interesting, specially with angel in the middle. Or perhaps a sort of interdimension showdown between good spike and angelus & bad spike and angel, both fighting for their soul, where both angelus and bad spike try to convince the other to give up their soul and return to their old habbits.
I have to say that when it comes to saying which romance is better, Buffy/Spike or Buffy/Angel, I'm always at a tie, it's apples and oranges, really. They can't compare.
Angel and Buffy had an attraction that was instant, visceral, and long lasting at the same time. It was beyond lost, but Buffy was still so young and inexperienced. The big plot hole for the whole "Angel loses his soul" is, even if he had sex with buffy after he became good again, who says that he would get perfect happiness?
Really great job on this video. I loved it. Evidently so did bexyally333, who seems to have copied your video and pasted another version of this song (by the Who) onto it, claiming it as her own. Just thought as one vidder to another, I would pass that on to you. I would ask anyone who is reading this to make sure they do not compliment bexyalley333 on her vid but when I tried to chastise her for stealing another person's idea I kept getting error. Hmmm. Turned off comments perhaps?
Great video, I really like it :) Awesome song, I just pretend it's not Limp BIzkit though lol (you can almost imagine it is James Marsters singing in parts lol...he would do a great cover dont you think!!)
Song fits Spike alright, although I don't know why Limp Biskit cut out the bridge from the song. I mean those lyrics and the harder-rocking music of that bit in The Who's original version, would fit Spike even better.
Oooh, pretty. I like your choice of clips. I've seen a few "Behind Blue Eyes" videos, and I have to say that the song fits Spike much better than most other characters.
i'm glad that you liked it. You can do this video with the program Windows Movie Maker, is very easy to use, i dont think that you have any problem with it.Thanks for coment!!
hmm, i have to disagree. Seeing Red only showed what was obvious from the very beginning - Spike had no soul, regardless the noble actions when he had proved to be the hell of the 'almost-having-a-soul' guy. i think it's hard not to sympathise with him after how he felt after the rape trial. he got his soul back! it's not only the reason to sympathise, it's the perfect reason to adore him even more.
but i almost get your point. rape trial is horrible.. made me speechless. i just claim it was amazing to show the difference between him and others. he had no soul and it -in my opinion- justifies his actions. he didn't know clearly what the borders between good and evil were. that's the soul job.
i'm sorry, i get so talkative when it comes to discussing BuffyVerse aspects ;).
You're right. He was an evil soulless thing when he did that to Buffy but became a good man when he got his soul back. I do love him as a character even if I don't always sympathise with him :D.
Really now? You know, Xander once tried to rape Buffy, waaay back in the first season. He was just possessed by the spirit of a hyena, still had his own soul and everything. But they just brushed that off afterwards, like it was nothing. Spike, on the other hand, had no soul, and unlike Xander (whom Buffy had to beat back), he stopped on his own. But I'm rambling on a topic that's been beaten to death already. Sorry.
Actually, Buffy threw Spike off of her, snapping him out of his rage, he didn't just stop. The reason she didn't fight more was because she was hurt from landing on a gravestone earlier that night. But what do you expect from a soulless vampire who just took whatever he wanted for around 140 years?? But anyway, great video!
Good point. I kind of expected more from him. I mean, he killed two slayers, lived with Angelus and Dru for ages, and slaughtered thousands. He should've been able to do horrible things to his superpowered bane-of-all-vampires'-existences not-girlfriend, and not feel the urge to apologize for it afterwards. Or, for that matter, travel across the globe and endure painful trials to obtain a soul - something he used to mock his grandsire for, even though said grandsire hadn't wanted it. Weird.
Buffy had treated him like dirt; only let him relate to her with sex, demanded it when she wanted, denied him in public, called him worthless. He didn't accept her ending it & gained hope from their talk at the wedding
They played rough in bed. All in all no surprise he didn't take her no as a no at first. No soul: he should have been capable of unrepentant evil but he tried to PERSUADE her to give in to desire he thought she did really feel for him
(cont'd) Ok, he tried to persuade her forcefully but ... master vampire, one of the most vicious ever, soulless, etc. Yes, one would have expected more and far worse
He could have harmed/forced B when he first found he could hit her
Spike had that spark of humanity. Angel didn't. Spike's love, once given, was all consuming. Loyal to a fault, he was always the one who got dumped on, deserted
Angel was good/evil, simple dualism
Spike's chip gave him the chance to grow & he took it
Mhm. One of the weirdest things about that whole scene was that Spike didn't even go into gameface. Which, as far as I can recall, has always been portrayed as an almost reflexive response to violence. Instead he just... Yanked her around a bit and muttered almost brokenly. They'd done far worse to each other all in the name of foreplay, usually initiated by her. The whole thing was more pathetic than scary, to tell the truth. But now I'm just repeating things that've been said before.
My thoughts exactly. When I first watched those episodes, I knew that one of them was going to screw up spectacularly. It was kind of inevitable. For a while I thought Buffy might break first - what with her history of "accidents" and power abuses. Thought she'd get her own Spiderman talk, like Faith, and face her problems. Just as well that it was Spike, though I was hoping that -somebody- would give 'im a bit of a break. Seemed like Buffy always took forgiveness for granted.
NexesVertali, "Seemed like Buffy always took forgiveness for granted" Yes
I came across some fanfic that explored the idea that Spike's concern post re-souling was more that Buffy should forgive herSELF, then him. (I mention the fanfic to avoid taking credit for the idea)
As you said before, Spike didn't vamp out when "attacking" her in the bathroom. I was actually more chagrined when he tried to kill a girl after first learning he could hit Buffy
@xleah11x Or, as one blogger basically put it (I'll paraphrase, since I don't have the exact quote or source)...
In the episode where Buffy had that encounter in the gyard with the vamp/ex-psych student, when Buffy proclaimed "I do not need therapy!", millions of fans across the world responded in a unified voice: "Bull$hi+!!!"
@NexesVertali I remember that episode!!! When Spike tried to rape Buffy and Xander was tripping out I was like "How is nobody not reminding him of when he was hyena boy?" I practically screamed it a few times.
If you can't tell I totally love Spike too and don't care if he's a fictional character and therefor I will never meet him. He was a good man and monster (when he was bad he was really bad lol)
@dangerrmcarly I know. Buffy always gave mixed signals to Spike. Her mouth would say no or don't but her actions would say yes. The violence and the sexcapades...so when she was saying "no" in the AR...Spike probably thought she didn't mean it. He could have gone through with it...she was weak and hurt. Anyway it was a way for Spike to get ensouled and for JM to get timeoff for a movie he was shooting. I love Spuffy...they belonged together...
@NexesVertali I forgot about that... But he was possessed so he wasn't choosing to try to rape Buffy, whereas Spike was choosing to do so. And Spike only did stop because Buffy managed to push him away long enough for him to realise, so it's not like he just suddenly realised that it was wrong. I like Spike and Buffy, especially in season seven, but the situations with Xander and Spike were different.
i understand what you mean about obsessively discussing buffy. I also forgive him for it. also, once buffy kicked him off, he realized what he did was wrong, and that was before he even had his soul.
holaaa excelente video!!spike es sin duda lo mejor de la serie!excelente el tema que elegiste!!detras de esos ojos azules de spike hay un ser increible que solo busca el amor y la aprobacion de buffy!que ha sufrido y ha hecho todo lo posible para cuidarla y preotegerla!me encanto tu video es genial!spuffy por siempre!!!
can u please tell me how do you do this? how do u edit all da clips together to music? is a software disk or something? coz i really wana try it but i dont know how 2 do it!! x
There are many good videos about Spike with this song but yours is my favourite. It really catches the rhythm of Spike's tragism and the song's meaning. And most of the scenes are visually very appropriate for such kind of video and are enough еxpressive even if you are not perfectly familliar with the plot and the lines. I love it.
Team Spike!!!

In the episode where Buffy had that encounter in the gyard with the vamp/ex-psych student, when Buffy proclaimed "I do not need therapy!", millions of fans across the world responded in a unified voice: "Bull$hi+!!!"

@NexesVertali I remember that episode!!! When Spike tried to rape Buffy and Xander was tripping out I was like "How is nobody not reminding him of when he was hyena boy?" I practically screamed it a few times.
If you can't tell I totally love Spike too and don't care if he's a fictional character and therefor I will never meet him. He was a good man and monster (when he was bad he was really bad lol)

@dangerrmcarly I know. Buffy always gave mixed signals to Spike. Her mouth would say no or don't but her actions would say yes. The violence and the sexcapades...so when she was saying "no" in the AR...Spike probably thought she didn't mean it. He could have gone through with it...she was weak and hurt. Anyway it was a way for Spike to get ensouled and for JM to get timeoff for a movie he was shooting. I love Spuffy...they belonged together...

@NexesVertali I agree.

@NexesVertali I forgot about that... But he was possessed so he wasn't choosing to try to rape Buffy, whereas Spike was choosing to do so. And Spike only did stop because Buffy managed to push him away long enough for him to realise, so it's not like he just suddenly realised that it was wrong. I like Spike and Buffy, especially in season seven, but the situations with Xander and Spike were different.

i understand what you mean about obsessively discussing buffy. I also forgive him for it. also, once buffy kicked him off, he realized what he did was wrong, and that was before he even had his soul.

There are many good videos about Spike with this song but yours is my favourite. It really catches the rhythm of Spike's tragism and the song's meaning. And most of the scenes are visually very appropriate for such kind of video and are enough еxpressive even if you are not perfectly familliar with the plot and the lines. I love it.
