Discovered in a Christmas Stocking - Day 36... Part the Third

[londonronnie.livejournal.com]

Songvids are a bit like buses, aren't they? You wait ages for one, then two come along together…

So, following hard on the heels of my first ever songvid comes… my second ever songvid!


To the best of my knowledge this song has been used for Pros vids on two previous occasions. I have one of those vids on a very old, scratchy and barely watchable NTSC tape, and my original plan was to remaster it using the dvds. I contacted the maker of that vid and explained what I would like to do, and although she did eventually give me her permission to go ahead I couldn't help thinking (perhaps wrongly) that there was a certain amount of reluctance there. I decided therefore to start completely from scratch, using totally different clips, so what you are about to see bears no resemblance to the vid on that old, scratchy tape. (Unfortunately I've never seen the second vid that used this song, and have been unable to track down the vidmaker, so if there's any resemblance to that vid then it's completely and utterly coincidental!)

One final point – I've found it impossible to find a download of this song anywhere online, so I've had to lift the soundtrack from my old tape. Many apologies for the poor sound quality.

Hope you enjoy it after all that! *g*

That's such a funny song. I've never heard it before and I admit, I laughed through it. *snirk* Good job with this one. You gave me a grin.

It still makes me giggle, and I must have heard it hundreds of times now!

Pleased to hear that it tickled your funnybone!

*g*

This one never fails to make me laugh - and again, you know I ADORE this vid. :-)))

Thanks, mate!

*g*

Oh I love it - I knew you'd be good! Although I do feel a bit hard done by on behalf of Doyle... *g*

I'm personally very glad that the other vidder sounded reluctant, cos I like what you came up with alot! *vbg*

You know, I nearly mentioned the fact that it wasn't my intention to put Raymond down at all, cos I really do love him nearly as much as I love Bodie. If it wasn't for the one line in the song about blue eyes then I could just have easily done it from the other POV. (And yes, I know that MS's eyes really are blue, but we all know that Doyle's eyes are green! *g*)

Glad you liked it, anyway!

Wow, we've done so well here today! Again, I thought the lyrics were perfectly matched to the chosen scenes and the whole vid was very, very clever. (I loved the line I thought you were taller - isn't that the comment which always annoys Lewis?). And I've never heard the song before, either. Thanks so much for this, I enjoyed it.

[londonronnie.livejournal.com]

Awww, you really do say the nicest things!

I'm so glad that it worked for you, and that the song was a new one for you too!

Cheers!

Heh. Well, I'd not heard that before! OH dear. *g* Still, it's true love!

Thank you! Two vids--wow! Well done.

[londonronnie.livejournal.com]

It is true love, no doubt about it! *g*

Pleased that you liked it!

Another one!! Really enjoyed this one too. At times you sort of forget how gorgeous they are together, then a vid comes along, and we realise why we are so obsessed with the Lads.

Thank you.

[londonronnie.livejournal.com]

Thank you, sunshine!

Pleased that you enjoyed it *g*

Wasn't there an old movie called 'Magnificent Obsession'? I think that's what we've all got...

LOL

I hadn't heard either song before - this one is hilarious - and I'm very impressed with your image-to-lyrics matches, they both work brilliantly well. You do realise that now you've revealed how good at this you are you'll have to do more, don't you! *g* .... lots more .....

Pleased to hear that it raised a smile. It makes me grin every time too!

I had such a great time making these vids that I think it's pretty likely that I'll be inflicting more on you all sooner or later. *g*

Thanks for the kind words!

This is the funniest thing I've seen for ages. OMG. I've got to go watch it again.

[londonronnie.livejournal.com]

Good to know that I've achieved my purpose! *g*

Thanks, mate!

[kiwisue.livejournal.com]

I'm finally catching up on vid watching - and have to tell you that I don't care how good those older vids are, this one is hilariously brilliant. You did a great job with it :)

And yes, more please!

[londonronnie.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

I'm pleased to hear that it raised a smile!

*g*

[melanieathene.livejournal.com]

That is simply wonderful. In fact, it's so good I have to go watch it again.
