There’s nothing ironic about feedback


I never thought I’d be making a Glee vid. I re-watch the musical numbers obsessively but vidding them would have seemed like gilding the lily. Then there was this YouTube clip of Harry Shum Jnr dancing to a medley that ended with “I’m Yours” and something clicked. It was different. Vidding without explosions is hard (though I used pretty well every slushie shot on the show to compensate). Singy face is hard. Ensemble vidding is hard but but none of it matters because vidding dance moves and musical fun times is the best thing ever.



I’m Yours
Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks, now I'm trying to get back

Before the cool done run out I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and then you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love

Listen to the music of the moment people, dance and sing
We're just one big family
And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm sure
There's no need to complicate, our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed

I guess what I be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do, our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

(I won't hesitate)
Open up your mind and see like me
(No more, no more)
Open up your plans and man you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours
(It cannot wait, I'm sure)

So please don't, please don't, please don't
(There's no need to complicate)
There's no need to complicate
(Our time is short)
'Cause our time is short
(This is our fate)
This is, this is, this is our fate
I'm yours

I don't watch Glee and I have no idea why I decided to watch the vid, but I'm glad I did. It was cute and fun and I really liked it. Nice work! :)

Here via...IDK, maybe [community profile] vidding? Sorry, I opened this tag like three days ago...

I really like the way the bubbly feeling of the music carries this along. I also feel like I get this big warm fuzzy from watching the characters interact and be happy and dance and sing and...it's like watching the show without having to follow the plot helps obscure all the random fail that I end up feeling while watching it for real. So it's like in vid-form, it's pared down to its best part: kids being joyful and singing and dancing and kissing and being happy, making themselves happy. And that's just a wonderful thing.

Yeah, it's pretty much all the joy in watching Glee, with a nice balance between all the characters, including the ones who don't get enough attention in plotlines.

This was lovely! I don't watch Glee at all, but your vid was very happy-making :D

That was just delightful! You did a great job working up to the hugs and happiness at the end, and balancing screen time between the characters. Yay Tina, Kurt and Mercedes!

I really enjoyed this! At first I couldn't think how this song would work in an ensemble vid--I always just thought of it as a one-on-one love song--but you're right, it was totally perfect. Usually when I think about Glee it's kind of all dark angsty subtext and kids with Issues. The really very happy, familial, warm tone of it all made me feel sort of happy and fuzzy inside. It's like a hug in a vid! Well done.

I've come round about Glee, so I'm finally watching the vids. This was lovely and heartwarming. The beginning was great. In your vid I saw Rachel for the adorably ambitious girl that I often have trouble appreciating in the show. I like 0:56-1:01, how they really would love to be loved. 1:17 makes me smile. Loved the editing of the car smashing, Mercedes and Kurt succeeding mainstream, and Rachel and everyone finding their dreams on the stage. 2:17-2:43 is solid beauty ("our name is our virtue"). "Please don't, please don't, please don't" is such glee. As is the whole vid.
