A beautiful song.....and a very moving video.....it stirs memories....that are both sweet and painful.........I never tire of watching this video......I also find this one to be more fitting...than the original one.
Loved this song first time i heard it and still do. I am a total sucker for a boynand his guitar and abeautiful song JAMES your video is perfect.....i am a crtic (film&music) and i would give this nothing less than than a glowing review! ( But this is just my Humble opinion And this is my Day off -3 )
This song will be (and has been) our first song of our wedding. There is NOTHING that can keep us apart. I reallly enjoyed this interpretation of the song. It brought tears to my eyes.
Wow!! ive been watching videos on youtube for years now, and never comment on any of them, but OMG... FANTASTIC VIDEO!! If I did not know any better I would of thought this was the actual music video! well done!
great job! the only part i found a bit much was when he broke down crying...he could have done both of those parts in a more "believable" fashion. My favorite parts where near the end with the candle sticks on the table...would have made a really nice art still. Overall I give you about a 9 out of ten. :)
This video makes me wanna cry. when ever i listen to it i think of my father who i lost not that long ago... i was just standing and i got a call saying he died... i dropped to the floor screaming WHY!!!!! He meant everything to me i love you so much DADDY ill make you proud R.I.P. I LOVE YOU THANK YOUR FOR THE BEST 14 years of my life.='(
@Wipfy ... I really am not sure how to respond to that... I have not heard many internet monologues and i am not an emotional person, but i (almost) cried reading your comment. I feel dearly sorry for you and offer my condolences (misspelled?). I also love this song and i know what it is like to have one song that makes you emotional (good OR bad emotions). Religious or not, I believe that our short lives cannot be all there is, so your dad must be in a better place. I hope so.
Wow this was amazing...really. I love this song, and i really love this video...congratulations on making one of the best covers I've ever seen. I really imagined a scene like this too, while listening to this song for the first time. Great job.
omg this video is so sad! i like literally started crying halfway through it.......i like so totally love this song, its definently one of my all time favorites, i even know all of the lyrics. sometimes when i'm alone outside i just randomly start singing this song....
wow. whoever made this did a gr8 job! you know, usually i think that people who try to make their own version of a popular song do a crap job, but "clap clap" to this guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I almost cried!!!!!!
woah. this was totally freaky- I made a music video for hear you me (jimmy eat world) and it had a lot of the same shots and generally the same feel of the video was there. I loved a lot of your shots and the message it gives- go check out my music video- it is sort of freaky the similarities.
Amazing work ! I'm a french guy and i first thought that it was a second official video from Death Cab for Cutie ( why not ? ^^^) . Watching yours has helped me so much understand this text .
I didnt See the Middle part when cuz I was Posting a Comment And OMG im like crying now too...The Song is amazing and I just saw the ending..That is so Sad!!! T-T
um. i don't think its that he wants her to die, rather he recognizes that it's an inevitable fact of life, and he's prepared to "follow her into the dark"
yea i understood it the same way you did jeremy, that he loves her so much that when she dies, he will die with her, now if he means it litterally, or that part of his soul will die with her, i dont know
Agreed My steadicam actually broke 10 minutes before this shoot. (don't buy steadicams off ebay) So all the shots were hand held, and the person holding the camera was the same girl who "vanished" in the video.
Wow, very professional James, some shots are a tad shaky (walking scenes), but hey, you most likely don't have steady-cam, so it's not too big of a deal. Loved the candle burning out, it was cool that you made it black and white. Overall, great work, keep it up!!
man that was awsome i know what it takes to make a video and edit it so all i have to say it is was perfect i would really think it was the music video and i love the color red to symble the love and pain in it
The dislikers must of been squirrels that thought it said dis-i-like.
