so what do I do with this?

[kaydeefalls]

New episode of Who: eh. Lots of stuff happening, but it didn't really keep me interested until the last ten minutes or so. However, I continue to <3 Rory lots, and am starting to become rather OT3ish about Doctor/Amy/Rory. And also Nasreen is made of win.

Today was my first full, actual day off since February 7th. This is not an exaggeration. So I finished a vid, because Amy Pond is love. :D

I swear that I will someday make a vid that does NOT use a Vienna Teng song, but today is not that day.

LYRICS:

Oh no not now
Please not now
I just settled into the glass half empty
Made myself at home
And so why now
Please not now
I just stopped believing in happy endings
Harbors of my own

But you had to come along, didn't you
Break down the doors, throw open windows
Oh, if you knew just what a fool you have made me

So what do I do with this?

This stray Italian greyhound
These inconvenient fireworks
This ice-cream-covered screaming hyperactive thought
God, I just want to lay down
These colors make my eyes hurt
This feeling calls for everything that I am not

I'm not that kind
I'm so good at shooting down any notion
This tired world could change
It's all been bought
Or at least that was my line
No use in spending all that emotion
When there's someone else to blame

But you had to come along, didn't you
Rev up the crowd, rewrite the rule book
Where do I go when every 'no' turns into 'maybe'

So what do I do with this?

This sudden burst of sunlight
And me with my umbrella
Cross-indexing every weatherman's report
I was ready for the downslide
But not for spring to well up
This feeling calls for everything I can't afford
To know
Is possible now

What do I do
With a love that won't sit still
Or do what it's told
What do I do
With a love that won't sit still

Please not now
Please not now
Please not now
Please not

What do I do
With a love that won't sit still
Or do what it's told
What do I do
With a love that won't sit still

Everything that I am...

I will have you know that I am now obsessed with this song. Also this vid. It's so... PERFECT, and also kind of bittersweet after Saturday's episode. T_T BUT AMAZING. It captures the... I don't know. The fact that Amy SAID she "grew up", but then she gets around him and it's like she's seven again, ready to do anything with him and have a ball while doing it, and dragging Rory through it all with her. It captures the sheer childlike joy of this season so perfectly and I'm just madly in love with it.

So thank you for making this wonderful vid (and inadvertently introducing me to my new favourite song in the process).

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Enjoy!

Thank you so much! I'm so very glad you enjoy it. :D (And, really, all of Vienna Teng's music is marvelous.)

This is amazingly put together and I adore it!

[shei.livejournal.com]

I love Amy like I love air, I love Eleven and right now, I love you like mad.

I seriously need DW icons.

Thank you so much!

Thank you!

Oh, AMY. *beams like a mad thing*

Yes, this means I've made it through Amy's Choice.

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

:D

(Next is a two-parter. Heads up.)

[tricksterquinn.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I saw that. Which, ok, this is a great spot to stop now. (I love that she didn't actually choose between them, at that.)

I need s5 icons, oh man!

[sparrowinsky.livejournal.com]

This video was gorgeous. Amy and Rory and the Doctor, oh. <3

Thank you so much!

Oh my god, perfect song choice! I never would have thought of it, but YES!

And such a wonderful vid. Your editing is so seamless and natural, and... soft, almost. Just great and happy-making to watch. :) I especially like intercutting Amelia and Amy, that was a nice touch.

[kaydeefalls.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

This is really beautiful, it makes my heart swell with wonderful feelings and it's inched me a little bit closer to declaring Amy my favourite companion and Eleven my favourite Doctor. Really, really beautiful.

Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

I just want you to know how much I love this vid -- Amy has taken a long time to grow on me, and your vidding skills tied with your song choice have played a huge part in making me understand and care more about her the past few weeks. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT. Also, you've made me finally fall in love with Vienna Teng's music, so thank you for that too! This song in particular has been on repeat more times than I can count. :D
