Strange but deffinately creative. It's a shame these kind of videos don't get more views.

Even if you have trouble with a story line or making a scene, just keep pumping out stuff like this and your art form will evolve itself into something great. You've got a good start, don't stop.

@TheWanderinSoul thanks for your comment! Tell all your friends and we'll get the views up!

So gloomy indeed. Would the DVD have just this video?

[Wazza001]

yes - the DVD has just this video! But also 5.1 sound, and a plastic DVD case, and a paper cover insert! - cheers Warwick

the end means that if you keep going with that type of sadness you can eventually die out. The shadow was simply herself trapped in fear.

This video, the images, the music Everything is meaningful, don't take the shadow or the flying heart like something different than a metaphore, specially since she's Completely alone in that room.

i actually think it was a very artistic way of stating insanity by the hands simply melting away. And the hair simbolized her dying, wraped alone.

[HimeRoseChibiChan]

This is a perfect interpretation of the pain of a broken heart.

[ThickgothGirlX]

She is so beautiful in my eyes. <3

[Sillylittleneko1]

Wonder why the man left her alone to die by the hand of the shadows..

[z3r0088]
