It's not cheesy if it's intended to be cheesy.

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"

That would help. Hopefully near the beginning. Another hour until it starts RE RUN style.

And the ending reminded me very painfully of the SOT video.


Dammit, OLP music videos used to be a part of what made OLP cool. And I was really hoping this one would break the stream of really crappy to somewhat acceptable videos (aka SOT, Innocent, Where Are You *shivers* ).

I really like that video, it was nice and calm. The only thing that made me laugh was Raine floating away in the end.

that was..... interesting... to say the least.

the red directors chairs in the background kinda confused me, though. :lol:

Haha, I laughed when raine flew away at the end.

EDIT: I have to say, that was much much better then Where are you. Exceptionally so, the song is better, the video is better. I actually like it.

:lol:!!!! I KNOW! his feet just kind of...dangling...and he's still strumming away...

i thought of mary poppins.

and yeah, a few too many closeups of raine's face singing in slowmo. a bit yawn...

otherwise, not terrible, i liked it.

Yeah, they probably had no budget to make it look as good as the vision should have been.

you'll see, you'll see. :lol:

it's not awful, but not fantastic. too much raine, and you only see steve's hair (i mean, even less of his face than normal). bit disappointed that jeremy wasn't put on wheels and rolled around with a parachute trailing behind him, or that he didn't fall from the sky, or whatever. setting was very pretty. raine's hair was...okay i guess.

i still think this, or the WAY vid, might end up on Fromage :lol:
