Notes: This vid would not exist without keepaofthecheez - she did a bit of a squee about the song and it gave me such a vidding bunny, so I had to run with it. So many thanks and love to her - hope this is a good cheer-up for you! Thanks to deirdre_c and roguebitch for handholding, especially while I watched Young MacGuyver. Oh, the things I do for vidding!

Further thanks to everyone involved with AI, who were so wonderful as to bring Mr Cook to the attention of fangirls the American public the world!

THIS IS TOTALLY MY CANON. THE END. THANK YOU AND GOODNIGHT.

Goddamn, OTP.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Here is a twizzler in thanks for your inspiration!

[micheleeeex.livejournal.com]

I just watched this earlier, lol. I LOVE THIS!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

(Hey, did the audio sound ok to you on youtube? It sounds weirdly fuzzy to me...)

[micheleeeex.livejournal.com]

It sounded really fuzzy on youtube.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

: re-uploads even though it means losing fifty-ish hits.

Bleh, youtube.

[micheleeeex.livejournal.com]

Aw, I'm pretty sure that you'll get lots of hits when you upload it again!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thanks, sweetie. It's weird, though - the audio on the "high quality" version is worse than the standard. I think there must be a bug in their conversion process.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Hopefully it's fixed - can you let me know if it sounds weird to you?

[micheleeeex.livejournal.com]

Sure!

[micheleeeex.livejournal.com]

IT'S FIXED!!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Wheeee and phew!

[annearchy.livejournal.com]

Oooh indeed. I never miss a chance to listen to (or watch) DCook. And Sam and Dean are mighty purty.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

It's all woobie-ness personified, from audio to visuals.

[nyoka.livejournal.com]

AWESOME.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[deirdre-c.livejournal.com]

YAY! It turned out so well! I'm such as sucker for the use of GG and DA footage to create the pre-series visuals. TOO FUN!

♥

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

It was a project of much joy!

Here, have some popcorn! And thank you - so glad you liked it. (I finally managed to get the audio working better, yay).

: goes off to reread your adorably Puck-ish fic

[bitterbird.livejournal.com]

AWW I SO LOVE THIS!!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[withdiamonds.livejournal.com]

Aw, I love it!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Oh! So much love for this! God damn but those boys are pretty!! *heavenly sigh*

Love the story you put together here - great job with the clip choices. And it had a happy ending - didn't it!! They rode off into the sunset and Dean didn't die and all is RIGHT with the world!!! Yes. Yes.

Great job. :D

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Yes, after midnight comes nothing bad happens, and they go off and share memories together.

Or something like that.

This is the first time I created a storyline for a fic that isn't a character sketch, and it was a bit of fun to do. SO glad you liked it!

(Have I ever told you I love your icon?)

[siriusslash.livejournal.com]

This is of course PHENOMINAL as always :D.

And yes the song is way better by David Cook. I actually think I like it now.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

And I kinda liked the Mariah version, but this one is just so guh-intense, you have to love it.

[siriusslash.livejournal.com]

My thoughts exactly on the song.

[raynemaiden.livejournal.com]

I really enjoyed this, thank you. You did a great job.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

This is ADORABLE and happy making. I (reluctantly and somewhat shamefully XD) admit to liking this song, but I was never aware of this version - it's fantastic! (Lol, I'm going to have to wiki the man because I have no idea who he is...but he has a lovely voice!) Love the use of Jared and Jensen's previous work in this vid; the result is incredibly cute and sweet. Simultaneously 'aww'd' and smiled.

I downloaded the lower-res version but the audio is off; at around 3:10 it smooths out, but...you know, it's a bit distracting. :p (Not blaming you though! For all I know something could have gone wrong with my download, but just giving you a heads up. The vid's still enjoyable.)

Great job. :)

[galadriel1618.livejournal.com]

Um…the anonymous comment (about being ashamed of liking the song) was me. *sheepish* But yea…liked your vid! Will fav it on youtube next time I log in! (I swear I have a reason for not just logging in and doing it now, it just probably wouldn't be a decent one to anyone but me. XD)

/random
‘I can’t decide’ and ‘I don’t feel like dancing’ as the edit and delete links? Marvelous!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

I think I unscreened - and I would have even if you hadn't ID-ed yourself - it was a lovely review, so thanks!

And glad you like the edit/delete links! I know people can't see them, but my screened/unscreened are "kiss you off" and "intermission" - and "Everybody Wants the Same Thing" = subscriptions. I blame credit Doctor Who last season for giving me a complete and utter love for the Scissor Sisters, and it works nicely as the alt-text, I think.

[at-midnight.livejournal.com]

Like, DIES!!! that is just TOTALLY amazing - and I love that song of course

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you! And omg your icon! I have to rec it to people - it's adorable!

[at-midnight.livejournal.com]

*lol* thanks for the compliment on my icon. you can just visit my art community midnight_space for more david cook fanarts :)

[layne67.livejournal.com]

Oh. My. God.

I had this bookmarked for the past couple of days but couldn't see it because my connection had been crappy and I kept thinking about this and now I finally got to see it and OMG I LOVE IT SO VERY MUCH!!!

It's awesome. You picked the perfect Sam and Dean at their various ages, and that moment when Sam left was just so, so gorgeous. I love that song, as sung by David Cook and my thoughts immediately went to Dean the moment I heard him singing that song, because you know, it's so very Dean, that song.

I can't thank you enough for making that wonderful vid. I've been waiting for someone to do it and yes, THANK YOU!!!

Btw, I made this David Cook - Dean Winchester picspam a little while back, and I rambled a little bit on how ABMY is Dean's song. It's here :))

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for your comments! They're so appreciated - and your picspam is just adorable!

[gwendolyngrace.livejournal.com]

Oh, I love it.

A tiny cognitive disconnect because the song is gendered wrong, but hey - that could just be Dean.

Awesome use of the other cuts, too!

D/Ling for sure!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I don't even think gender-dissonance anymore, weirdly enough - but it's one of the reasons I used a bit from DA of Jensen quirking at "girl".

[zenamydog.livejournal.com]

OMG the cutting of all those clips were brilliant.

Excellettttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!

Loved it!

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

How did I not see your comment before? Well, thank you so much for the review! So appreciated!

[emma-in-oz.livejournal.com]

The epic love story of Sam and Dean so graphically shown here.

[heidi8.livejournal.com]

Oh my gosh, thanks for the comment! SO glad you liked it! How did you find the vid?

[emma-in-oz.livejournal.com]

I was going through FanVids systematically and I found it :-0
