Jack Sparrow - The Fly

Just an idea I've had for a long time...I think the song just fits from Jack's POV. For the people who don't know the song, here are the lyrics:

(Oh, baby child)

It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
It's no secret that our world is in darkness tonight
They say the sun is sometimes eclipsed by a moon
You know I don't see you when she walks in the room

It's no secret that a friend is someone who lets you help
It's no secret that a liar won't believe anyone else
They say a secret is something you tell one other person
So I'm telling you...child

A man will beg - Love...we shine like a
A man will crawl - burning star
On the sheer face of love - We're falling from
Like a fly on a wall - the sky...tonight
It's no secret at all

It's no secret that a conscience can sometimes be a pest
It's no secret ambition bites the nails of success
Every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief
All kill their inspiration and sing about their grief
Oh love...

A man will rise - Love...we shine like a
A man will fall - burning star
From the sheer face of love - We're falling from
Like a fly from a wall - the sky...tonight
It's no secret at all



(Love...we shine like a burning star)
(We're falling from the sky...tonight)


A man will rise - Love...we shine like a
A man will fall - burning star
From the sheer face of love - We're falling from
Like a fly from a wall - the sky...tonight
It's no secret at all

It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
The universe exploded 'cause of one man's lie
Look, I gotta go, yeah I'm running outta change
There's a lot of things, if I could I'd rearrange

I'd never thought of that before, but now that I've seen this, I agree. there is definately an element of The Fly in Jack Sparrow- the confident swagger, the disinterest in everything and everyone around him, as well as the unceasing pursuit of freedom and pleasure. And Jack is just as cool as The Fly. I never considered this song and Pirates together, but the way you've done it works brilliantly. very nice indeed. Great vid, great song

I think that Johnny Depp also based his figure Jack Sparrow on Bono's Fly. The way of walking and not interested in anyone, anything.

Go love Jack Sparrow, but don't forget your assignment!

Holy crap, I never noticed how similair Jack Sparrow and the Fly were, you did a good job with this!

Awesome, really awesome vid. The whispered line 'pirates' at the end is an excellent touch.
