I really am not crazy about harry potter...like at all.
But I thought the treatment you gave the video, and a lot of the visuals, really fit the song, like perfectly....especially the last shot, with Harry waking up in bed, with the grainy film effect over it?
Forget the X factor and America's got talent guys, this is the REAL deal. Artists like Jeff Buckley give dignity and beauty to a music industry that's getting worse and worse every day...fuck stupid pop music.
Same goes for Twilight but yeah, Twilight is more ideal, but it's far from perfect, lots of problems, difficulties Bella and Edward have to get true to be together and to be happy and alive.... Lots of doubts also, again the question of good and evil, Edward believes himself to be evil, to have lost his soul and he's afraid he'll infect Bella with this, and Bella feels unsure about herself, she thinks she's too ordinary for Edward... all Cullens had their share of horror also...
Yeah, everythings possible.. But the possibilities aren't limitless, it's not because magic exists in Harry's world, he can just do anything with magic, there are rules, limits to what he can do, and there are lots of problems.. So saying it's nice to read becaue it's about an ideal world where anything's possible, is not entirely true, it's all about the constant battle between good and evil I think, also the good and the evil within a certain person, within Harry himself...
Of course they do!!!! I'm crazy about books like that myself, especially fantasy or when there's some kind of mystery that can't be solved.. :-D But when there would be no limits whatsoever, then I guess it would become boring, it's not just the possibilities that make it interesting but also the fact that those possibilities are limited...
yeah exactley lol makes the characters seem that much more real. I love being hooked into stories like Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings, i like to re-read them alot lol cheers.
Have you read Eragon series and His Dark Materials series? That's fantasy too and I personally loooove those series!:-D I'm still reading Lotr now, that book keeps you reading for years lol! But it's awesome, I mean, it's a bit hard to get through those pages sometimes but the story is just so awesome, the whole world that's being created, all the creatures and their culture and of course the quest to destroy that ring and everything that goes along with it, the whole war... Awesome!:-D
@nat00ben06 'harry potter's more for children and simpler minds'. the story is indeed very accessible to nearly everyone, but that does not necessarily limit it to only simple minds and kids. in fact, i think that if you can't even make the effort to look past the plot and just take a look at the wonderful and very intricately created world in which it plays, you're rather narrow minded and just kind of arrogant.
Maybe a bit of a strange combination,yeah.... I once saw a Stargate Atlantis fanvideo about the Wraith and also this song, that was a better combination, I think. Anyway, I guess the Dementors and Voldemort are dark but I don't see much of those in this video lol!
Btw, I think the Harry Potter movies are becoming darker and darker towards the end of the series... With everybody dying, ppl going mad cause they're tortured by deatheaters and then there's Bellatrix Lestrange of course... So I don't see why this song can't be used for a Harry Potter video...
Harry Potter is not bullshit, it's a damn good story, even without the magical stuff! Jezus, why don't u ppl read the books and watch the movies before judging the whole thing?!
I was a huge Harry Potter skeptic until I finally took the advice of people who told me "if you hate it so much, why don't you just read it?" So I sat down and read the books, and I'm hooked. They're excellent stories, in spite of their popularity. It's yet another case of something being popular *because* it's good. I've been careful not to make the same presumptuous statements about the Twilight series. I haven't read them or seen the movie, but respected friends of mine say they're good.
Yeah, I think most people that say they 'hate' stuff haven't bothered to even read or watch it, or do so openminded... I do say most, I mean, it's possible you read something other people loooove and you just haaaate it lol! But Harry Potter and Twilight are both series millions of people like, so... I'd say that means something ;-)
Exactly. People hate the fact that it's popular, they don't even try to read, just the fact that people like it is their proof that it's bad... I loved Harry Potter, and Twilight, a bit less (or more than a bit), but I can undestand why people like it... They like because it's what they need to read, it's what they want them to be told, stories about love, stories about magical powers, stories where every fantasm is possible... That's why, even if you don't like it, objectively, it can't be bad
No worries. There are retarded people all over the world. The internet allows even the most marginal intelligences to have a voice. Anyone who thinks that Harry Potter is on a level with Jeff Buckley has a place with all of their likewise stilted intelligences around the planet. No blood, no foul, kiddies.
I know! That gives me chills every time I hear it! Man, it's also hard to explain why to people, you know? They just think that I don't like the lyrics, and I'm like no, the music, lyrics, singing, it is all beautiful, but it is just random seeming and out of nowhere, and he sings it differently than the rest of the song, you know, and he drowned... But noone really gets it, if they aren't really truly in tune with the music they are listening to.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Opeth's Mikael Åkerfeldt performed the growling vocals ... Katatonia = gay sweeds with no authenticity! Pls Generation Y, stop taking mummies food and leave home!
Its such a shame that I kind of hate Harry Potter because there is some really beautiful editing here that matches the mood. Any scene that has no identifiable faces actually! I love the spiral staircase and the ax coming down at the beginning. Keep it shadowy, shady and brooding...you don't need the actors (or at least their faces) in this. Its really quite decent!
I've heard the Katatonia cover and Jeff is far more emotive, but even if to you Katatonia's sounds better - be fair. This is an incomplete version; Jeff drowned before he finished tweaking with it.
katatonia is my 2nd favorite band, i LOVE them...but the original is very good also.
and amandalittleamanda, if you havent heard the katatonia version you should check it out. you might think its METAL but its really just a slightly heavier version of the song, the vocals pretty much remain around the same area just the guitars distort at the choruses,etc.
For you metallers, every metal cover is better than original. Tipical. As the orrible cover of A forest (The Cure) made by carpatian forest... It's a sad, ill world...
I am a metalhead, and I can reel off a long list of bad covers, and good covers. And I know many people who can do the same.
Carpathian Forest covered a song and they did it in their style, that doesn;t amke it a "sad, ill world" get your head out of your arse, and accept metal as a legitimate genre, and do not EVER speak for the entire metal community.
Are you nuts? How can you top Jeff Buckley? Actually the alternate version of this song on Disk 2 of Sketches for My Sweetheart The Drunk is much better than this.
Haters gonna hate. The video is awesome. Harry Potter is awesome. This song suits it so well. It's the truth. No One is above Harry Potter!!!

@Nigelene Harry Potter's more for children and simpler minds that can't grasp the enormity and complete encompassing of Lotr.
On a different note Jeff Buckley is one of my top's of all time, thank god for letting us have him even for a short while.
While we'll have 50 cent and Justin Timberlake maybe forever no one said life was fair.
