Lyrics
Watching the days slip by so fast
Knowing our fate has long been cast
Working our fingers to the bone
Cause nobody loves you when you're gone

Coughing up feeling just for you
To find something real to hold on to
But there is a hole inside my heart
Where all of my love comes pouring out.

You know you'll always be my man
But grab yourself sweetness where you can
Cause sooner or later were going to die
Left to the dogs under the sky



Notes
This one grew like Topsy but slowly - I started laying down clips for it in November. The original idea was that Ellison was the Dorothy of his story, the stranger in the strange land. Which I guess makes Weaver the witch although whether a more humanitarian Elphaba or a more homicidal Glinda still isn’t entirely clear. I’m still not sure who John Henry/Cromartie is either. The wizard or maybe one of the monkeys, but he’s definitely part of the trinity. I clipped a whole bunch of clips from The Wizard of Oz for this but didn’t use any of them – it’s all in the colouring. And I finally learnt how to do tracking mattes. By reading the manual. Go me!

WOW. I will try to be more coherent later. But WOW.

Eeee, I love this! And I love how you use the music.

I haven't watched much of this season's SCC, but this vid is captivating even without the background. I was especially taken with how you presented Weaver and the ways you played with her footage. Really gorgeous visuals, and I thought you did wonderful things with the musical changes. :D

Fantastic. I think my favourite sequence is Ellison pulling Cromartie's body out of the grave, to Cromartie dying in Christ-like pose and getting buried, to being resurrected as John Henry. The choic of a Garbage song sugggests Catherine Weaver as the narrator, looking at James Ellison and humanity, in a way.

This just gorgeous.

[cryptoxin.livejournal.com]

Wow, this is really stunning and hauntingly beautiful.

[amonitrate.livejournal.com]

oh, I liked this a lot.

[kuwdora.livejournal.com]

WOW!! Amazing~!

[monanotlisa.livejournal.com]

Oh, must see. Thank you! Remind me to leave feedback after watching. & ;-)

...oh, watched it now, and it is amazing as the reccers said. James Ellison is one of my favourite characters, along with Sarah and Cameron, and it's fascinating to take this as him been seen not through eyes but the lens of a less human perspective.

Heh, I have been wanting a Weaver/Ellison vid to a Garbage song since the beginning of the season. This is very pretty. I especially like the framing.

[aycheb.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I hope later happens :-)

[aycheb.livejournal.com]

Icon love! It was a fun song to play with.

[aycheb.livejournal.com]

Weaver is captivating. Probably that says bad things about me.

[aycheb.livejournal.com]

The vid had mixed origins but Weaver as narrator and Ellison as protagonist is a good description and I'd imagine she might see humanity through him in her robot way. Also thanks for the rec and I loved the mermaid story.

[aycheb.livejournal.com]

Thank you (and for reccing).

[aycheb.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[aycheb.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[aycheb.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[aycheb.livejournal.com]

I think I love all the characters on this show, I really hope they get a third season to see where Ellison's story goes next.

[aycheb.livejournal.com]

Thanks!
