I’ve always loved this song. It was great to vid because the music builds as if there’s a story but the lyrics don’t seem to insist on a specific narrative. I have to admit that initially the idea of using it for a Willow vid came from the obvious drug connection but I’ve tried to keep that non-explicit. Heroin, love, Tara, magic it’s all the same story really. The one about chasing after happiness, sacrificing innocence and finding there’s a cost. Initialy, I just had Tara pegged for doe-eyed and deer-like but then Wellcome to the Hellmouth was playing and there was Willow caught in the headlights. It all flowed (or mostly trickled) from there.


Feedback is like smack….

Thank you for coming back. And with time stamps! And someone else who thought Tara was the deer :-)

The Fear Itself/Restless section was something I knew I had to do for the first "Keep me hanging on" but it took a lot of tweakng the motion and the lighting to get right. Thoes snare beats were a gift though. And yes I like the description wraps back on itself. At one point I was going to make it much harsher on Willow but the strings start up again towards the end and that gave me the idea that "reap what you sow" can mean good karma as well as bad. She did make good friends.
