no no, it's like, the entire video we thought she was running and he was chasing after her, and then at the end we realize that they were actually running towards each other the whole time because they both love each other so much!

i have no idea how it related to the song though

The wide shots in the woods remind me of the forest-y backdrop from their last tour.

That's what I was thinking while I watched it too. I like the track, the video was kind of cheesy but who cares, it's not like we're going to be sitting around watching it all day.

It was like Twilight: the music video.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

I was thinking that as well... That guy looked a bit too much like the Twilight guy, plus the gloomy woodland atmosphere of it.

Yeah, I'm @ work now... anyway yeah I agree about the Twilight comparison LOL... and I like the way they ended the song, and overall I'm just glad to finally have a new OLP video. This one definitely beats Where Are You for me.

Camstudio... which is a program that just records whatever's on your desktop screen and saves to AVI... you can select a specific region of the screen to record... that's why if you look near the bottom of my video you can see the edge of the player... I didn't select the exact region, LOL

And as subpar as their video quality is their audio recording is even shittier so I had to use another program to record the audio then merge the two in Movie Maker.

Yeah, not the greatest method but its enough for our poor American friends hah.. but Sympatico/MSN did a pretty great job encrypting the actual video though.. they didn't want no Americans to see it!

Not a great music video, but man the song is really growing on me! Sounds great full-length!
