Wow... just... ::swallows huge lump in throat::... wow. This is truly beautiful. In my born days I never thought I'd see a slow song work so well in Pros. It's gorgeous and reflects hours of work, I'm sure. You did it, you got in every sound, every look, every movement between them that captures us all and keeps us here.

Thank you. From the bottom of my very grateful heart, I cannot imagine a more perfect way to mark this anniversary.

Oh you are so very welcome, sweetheart. I'm so glad you feel I have done them and you all justice.
Thank you for this wonderful feedback.

That is a lovely way to celebrate 30 years - it must have taken you absolutely ages and what a great idea to get everyone's fave moments in there. Making the clips black and white and the way you have chosen them to work with the song makes it a really fitting tribute. Thank you for all your hard work, what a lovely treat!

Well. I'll tell you something. If I wasn't already completely obsessed with Pros, this vid would do it for me. Absolutely.

That's love. Every bit of it. The looks, the communication, the smiles, the laugh (oh, what a dirty, happy laugh). The worry and the affection and the sheer, bloody connection between them. Wow. Double-wow.

And then there's the obvious love that went in to the creation of it. Thank you, Crimson. For putting this together, for capturing the love and making it tangible. Pretty much a less in "show don't tell," actually. *g*

Okay, triple-wow. Happy 30th, my dear!

This is just one of the best Pros vids ever. And the b&w makes it so much more authentic. I went all nostalgic and the song just fist perfectly. All those wonderful scenes with those looks and touches between the lads in one brilliant vid. Thank you so much for doing this. YOU ROCK!!! *pounces and huggles*

Gold Star for all who contributed to this beautiful fanvid.

So beautifully put together, made more poignant by it being in black and white and with the odd sound file ... thanks for putting Doyle's wicked laugh in the mix.

WELL DONE !

Happy Anniversary everyone and here's to the next 30 years !

Thirty Year of Sunshine

This is one of the most beautiful vids I've ever seen. The pacing, the use of monochrome, the pauses and the mix of dialogue and music is just perfect. And you've used so many of the moments between them that show their closeness and devotion and love. Watching this I can understand why all those years ago I fell in love with them and the way they loved each other, without knowing why! It certainly wasn't the guns and car chases - I didn't like those. But they didn't stop me watching. This lovely lyrical sequence explains why I was watching. Thank you.

What an incredible vid, absolutely stunning, all those amazing clips and the moving soundtrack. The perfect commemorative vid. Thank you!

[sc-fossil.livejournal.com]

This vid defies words. It is gorgeous, beautiful, heart-warming... Just perfect. I love it. Love the black and white, great song, wonderful clips. Thank you for this. What a great day you've given me!

[solosundance.livejournal.com]

Just ...... exceptional. Thank you so much.

[paris7am.livejournal.com]

Thank you.
So many powerful emotions roll through me while watching this.
What incredible amazing men they are and what an incredible amazing relationship they share - both as characters and as actors portraying those characters.
I'm sure that creating something in honour of thirty years was a daunting prospect, but you've done it with beauty and power and grace.

[gilda-elise.livejournal.com]

OMG, this is fantastic! It's all there, the friendship and love and everything else they share. You've done such a wonderful job with this vid. It's going to be one of those I watch over and over again. Congratulations on an excellent, excellent endeavor.

This is just so beautiful - thank you so much for encapsulating all that we love about Pros, all in one wonderfully crafted and amazing vid.
A perfect way to celebrate the 30th - thank you a thousand times!

[empty-mirrors.livejournal.com]

I'm sat here in tears. Thank you. So beautiful.

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

As ever, this is absolutely beautiful Crimson - thank you so much, what a perfect end to the day!

[krisserci5.livejournal.com]

amazing . . . and oh so beautiful. I must quit writing now so I can go watch it again.

[sunray45.livejournal.com]

That is just so beautiful. Sheer genius making it in black and white and all my favourite scenes too.

Really loved Doyle's dirty laugh and Cowley's bellow at the end.

Thank you so much for all your hard work, all for our enjoyment!!

[miwahni.livejournal.com]

Oh my. That was breathtaking, and beautiful, and I'm sitting here now with tears in my eyes. Thank you so much.
If ever I was to try and pimp someone into Pros fandom, this is the songvid I would use.

[andreathelion.livejournal.com]

That is sooo amazing, beautifully and perfectly made, the scenes, the words, the music, I'm really lost for words.
And using the monochrome effect was absolutely stunning, the icing on the cake.

Thank you so much for your hard work, hon, you're terrific ((hugs))

[nakeisha.livejournal.com]

Absolutely stunning. Perfect.

And made all the more wonderful by doing it in black and white.

Thank you so much.

Beautiful.

My internet connection started playing up last night just as I was about to download your vid (apparently it was going to take 9 hours to download!!) so I've only just managed to watch it.

What can I say? To say that it was wonderful doesn't do it justice, but I'm at a loss to think of how else to describe it. Poignant, maybe? It certainly brought a lump to my throat. Just to see the two lads going through everything together, sticking with each other through thick and thin... and having absolutely NO doubt that thirty years down the line nothing will have changed...

Thank you so much, mate. We are so lucky to have you in our Pros world.

{{hugs}}

I'm really hard-pressed to know what to say about this vid. It's so perfect and so poignant that I scarcely can watch it without crying. Nothing I can say, can tell you how much I love it, but it would be churlish to enjoy it so much and not say anything. So I comment to say thanks; you have made a wonderful, wonderful vid.

The ending, with Cowley calling for Bodie and Doyle, which I think is from ODNT, especially speaks to me. With GJ gone from us, I sometimes have trouble watching Cowley or listening to him. It makes me a bit sad. So the ending, really makes me tear up.

This vid is just amazing. Thanks.

Thirty Years?! That went fast.

[1crowdedhour.livejournal.com]

Thank you for this delightful vid, a labor of love on so many, many levels. Took me forever to download on my connection, but it was well worth every minute.

[towerbridge2006.livejournal.com]

Since I'm still running to catch up (and enjoying every minute) I thought I'd tell you again, here, that the vid is wonderful, fantastic, perfect, and just what we needed. Cheers!

Everyone asleep (finally) and I just finished watching it..and OH, but I LOVE the B&W choice, and the Lads, and the clips, and how they look at each other, the complicty there...great job, thank you so much, this is one for keeping and remembering :D
(and my clip, my clip is there! YAY! THANK YOU!)
