I CLAIM NO RIGHTS TO THIS AUDIO I'M NOT BREAKING COPYRIGHT LAW BECAUSE IT ALLOWS FOR FAIR USE - NON-PROFIT AND/OR PERSONAL USE IS LISTED UNDER "FAIR USE". SO YEAH.

If the pitch shift is too much, mute it and open the following link in a new tab:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn5cVcuAcNM

Oh my gosh. PITCH SHIFT ALERT. So sorry. If it happens to get audioswapped, which is a very real possibility, you can open the link above in a new tab and watch my video. Seriously. I love this thing, and I REFUSE to have it taken down!!

ANYWAY, Here's my old description:

-Black eye and bloody nose - different interpretations. People keep telling me the BOY is supposed to have it, but I think it should be the girl. I asked some of my friends, and there were a couple different views.
1: The boy freaked her out so she punched him and he got a black eye / bloody nose. I don't find this likely, though, because of the line before it saying "When Beauty met the best, he froze." If he froze up, why would she give him a black eye? Also, that's just rude of her.
2: SHE has the black eye and bloody nose, indicating that she lives a pretty rough life, whereas he does not. This would make her not his type, and he feels that she would never choose to be with him because they're two completely different people.
Everybody's free to their interpretations, but I just didn't feel like making the girl a TOTAL meanie-face, so I gave HER the black eye. This gives her character more depth, and makes her less of a b-word.
PLUS I looked it up online. The ONLY interpretation I could find was as follows:
"he's getting the feel that, she's not going to be into him because despite all of her positive qualities, she's the type of girl that prefers relationships with struggle. The black eye and bloody nose to me symbolize the types of guys she'd rather be with.. ones that may not care, but make it a challenge instead. Truth be told, this is the path a lot of girls choose. Again, thats just the way it goes. :)"

EDIT: Thank you all so much for 10k views in just under a week! That's amazing to me. :D
EDIT2: Wow. 20k views in 12 days. AWESOME. Thanks guys!
EDIT3: Thank you all soooooooo much for 40k views in less than three weeks!!! That's freaking awesome. Seriously. WOO! :D
EDIT4: The above don't apply anymore because I had to reupload it. But I was up to 70,000 views by one month. :(

Okay. So, sorry about the pitch shift. It's the ONLY way youtube will let me post this video, short of having Adam Young himself tell them to leave it up. (That would be AMAZING, wouldn't it? xP)

Anyway, this is my newest MMV! Deer in the Headlights - Owl City's new single! Woot woot! Off the album All Things Bright and Beautiful.

This took freaking forever to make. Like. Literally, 25 hours. And I did it all in under 4 days. That's more than 6 hours a day. WOW. Worked like no other. :) Hope it was worth all the work!

Lyrics:
Met a girl in the parking lot
And all I did was say hello
Her pepper spray made it rather hard
For me to walk her home
But I guess that's the way it goes

Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye
Didn't you know love could shine this bright
Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights

Met a girl with a graceful charm
But when beauty met the beast, he froze
Got the sense I was not her type
By the black eye and bloody nose
But I guess that's the way it goes

Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye
Didn't you know love could shine this bright
Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights

It's suffocating to say but the female mystique takes my breath away
So give me a smile or give me a sneer
'Cause I'm trying to guess here

Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye
Didn't you know love could shine this bright
I'm sorry I ever tried
Deer in the headlights

Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye
Didn't you know love could shine this bright
If life was a game you would never play nice
If love was a beam you'd be blind in both eyes
Put your sunglasses on 'cause you're the deer in the headlights
You're the deer in the headlights

RANDOM NOTES:
-YOUTUBE SUCKS.
-I like this video.
-Yuck. At one point when it says "Didn't you know love could shine this bright?" I forgot to put the "Didn't you" lyric. So it only says "know love". Blah!
-New account. Boo. :(
-Green screen issues? I think so. Why did I have the bright idea to make the guy's eyes green? I just fail today!
-Enjoy!
-I love you all!

More random notes:
-Reuploaded = horrible. I'll never get 69,000 views again. x_x -hates life-
-I just noticed that Friday by Rebecca Black is not on youtube anymore...? Well, not the OFFICIAL one with like... 150million views.

  • Are those suppose to be 2 different girls?

  • @mostable1 No. They're the same girl, but with different hair styles, hair color, skin tone, eyes, and outfits.

  • I realy like it:)

    But i still dont get how she was the one with the black eye an bloody nose...?

  • @DJvideoes Description.

  • @alleykatx3 It's just that it's MY MMV, and if I want to give the girl the black eye and bloody nose, that's MY choice. You have no right to tell me that I'm wrong, when there's NO proof that I am. It's a matter of opinion, and I repeat, you have no right to tell me I'm wrong. And you've HARDLY talked to me. You've told me my animation was incorrect, and then when I gave you reference to an explanation, you still told me I was wrong. If anybody's acting like they're smarter, it's YOU.

  • @alleykatx3 Oh, and thanks for the unsub, btw. I'll just get one back in like 10 minutes.
