Whoa, it's BECK. And it is awesome... even though I hate the song (OK, so it grew on me

). The video title and image above contradict each other; there are LOTS of guitars in this video, so I guess the video name is kind of false advertising. Enjoy!

Wait! You hate the song?! How can you hate FOREIGNER?!?!

Grrr...

Anyway, as I told you at the con (and on your journal), I liked your video. And although it wasn't my absolute favorite moment at Otakon, one of the better moments was Brad, Mike and I screaming "JUKE BOX HERO" at the contest on Saturday during the last chorus. I imagine we embarrassed you

.

If we had watched this video on Thursday night, I think several of us would've been watching it with.... DOUBLE VISION....

Fuggin awesome video. You know how big of a BECK whore I am and you did not disappoint one bit. It's the kind of video that I find really hard to classify. I mean, it's not REALLY "drama" or "upbeat" or anything like that. It's just.. a story. I mean, even Character Profile doesn't fit 100%.. I guess sentimental would be the closest thing. I don't know. It just works. With or without labels.

I remember AtomX suggesting this idea in the IRC one day a while back, and I agreed it would fit perfectly, so I'll definately get this since I love BECK and think you'd totally be able to make dat shit werk

/getz

edit: ok, this was awesome. I'm keeping this for sure. One of my favorite vids in a while. Just solid simple editing that had good impact and stuff. Man I love this, can't wait to get back home so I can finally start on mine after having an idea for like.. 5 months >_>.

Way to break the pun streak :\

And the "suggestion" was a joke based on having just watched this video.

Yeah, sorry Daniel, I hate the song too.

That's my only problem with the video, I'll admit that the pairing is pretty much perfect, the song and source fit together perfectly and the editing is awesome. I just can't stand the song :\

Yay, we can be haters together! *high five* I'm glad you gave the video a chance, despite that.
