City and Colour - Save Your Scissors (Cover - VideoSong)

FREE MP3 DOWNLOAD: http://www.mediafire.com/?zyom5bdrnnh

Ok so this is my first attempt at a video song. What's a video song you may ask...

A VideoSong is a new medium with two rules:

1. What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice).
2. If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds).

So basically, it's hard work! I hope you enjoy it. It took long enough! Let me know what you think

Lyrics:

So go on
And I will refrain
And I'll keep on running this neverending race
maybe next time will be the right time
and maybe next time will be your time

So save your scissors
Someone else's skin
My surface is so tough
I don't think the blade will dig in
Save your strength
Save your wasted time
There's no way that I want you to be left behind
Go on save your scissors
Save your scissors

So why does it always seem
That every time I turn around
Somebody falls in love with me
This has never been my soul intention
And I have never claimed to have patents on such inventions

Just save your scissors
Someone else's skin
My surface is so tough
I don't think the blade will dig in
Save your strength
Save your wasted time
There's no way that I want you to be left behind
Go on save your scissors
Save your scissors

There is something that I must confess to you tonight
To you tonight
And that is I expect nothing less from you tonight
From you tonight

Go on save your scissors
Save your scissors
Save your scissors

what video software do you use?

[benpleasance]

IT'S A SECRET!

[benpleasance]

only kidding - Final Cut Express

[hany259]

VERY NICE...but there doesn't need to be so many guitar layers...they kind of drown out the vocals. nicely done, took a lot of work i presume...5*****

[benpleasance]

Thanks very much. I think you must have watched it in normal quality because it's in mono when you don't click the link on the right hand side. In high quality it's stereo and the vocals are far more prominent. I'd never drown myself out with guitars on purpose haha.

[Ahlybenghazi1947]

hey mate, i'm not a lawyer, so i don't know how to do this, but i used some of your music for a video i made, for a peace project thing. i'll show you the video when i'm finished with it?!

[CrushingSecret101]

GREAT VOICE BRO!!! Love it the whole thing

[ConnorRoff]

best cover i've seen. everyone elses seriously need vocal work. holy shit.

[TheRivivedOfficial]

Very good, I just didn't like the video clips with you clipping the scissors. I have a mild case of sicosnipophobia, and seeing you happily do that really made me cringe...

Great audio though.

[Stephanie19885]

Really nicely done man! I usually hate covers but I actually listened to this the whole way through! 5 *

[FRoZenTaKKoParad3]

not my style of music.but i had to watch this the whole way through.youve got talent as a musician and video maker.keep up the good work.

[CharleyAndAnnie]

Sounds really really good dude. It makes me want to multitrack and film it. I've multitracked a lot, but never filmed it. Looks time consuming. Your audio/video quality is really good. If you've got a minute, come check out our version of this son..

[Lumacaris]

perfect job,dude !

I mean it must have taken a lot of time from you do edit this video o.o'

and,how's the tunning of your guitar?It seems like Dallas likes to play along with tunnes .-.

[mushabooooooom]

you can tell you put a lot of work into this..

and even if dallas is uncomparable,

i thought it was great

[Zipula]

I like it even if nothing can compare to Dallas voice.
