wow, this is amazing! What a beautiful and appropriate song for this story - the editing was wonderfully appropriate with the lyrics.
Gorgeous!

The song is beautiful and really apt - I loved how the scenes fitted with it. My favourite bit was seeing the statues of Avatars past, eyes all lighting up to "I have done this many times before you." Beautiful work!

[talitha78]

This is fantastic! Great song choice, amazing editing.

[dhobikikutti]

::flail:: that was awsome. Like, amazing. Er, wonderful. And the bit with the lyrics, and the visuals… yeah. Er, all of it.

[jonesandashes]

This is SO PRETTY. I love how smooth the transitions and the movement are - such a fabulous showcasing of a gorgeous show. Definitely one to rewatch.

[recessional]

That was truly fantastic; I loved, to be honest, the way in which the creepiness of the music added a certain sense of the eerie to the relentless return of the Avatar.

[rodo]

O_O Cool. Vids are hit and miss for me because of the songs, but this one just fits so well! And the scenes you chose to illustrate it definitely work.

[chagrined]

Cool, especially the song choice!

[kairia]

Words can't even begin to describe how I feel - great song choice and the editing is just fantastic.

[terajk]

I adore this. The mood, and the sense of movement and flow is just...wow.

There are so many moments from the show that fit with lines from the song! I love "While you were building your empires/I was still sleeping" with Sozin, and Aang in the ice. Also, the "I've done this many times before you" when the eyes of all the Avatar statues light up.

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

[reflectedeve]

Wow. This is gorgeous work, and it has some fantastic emotional impact. It's a wonderful song, and your choice of clips is excellent (I also loved the "I was still sleeping" paired with Aang in the ice, just for a start - and "I am not waiting" with Katara at the North Pole gave me chills).

The way you map Zuko's progression throughout is especially marvelous, and I love the way you end it with an emphasis on his partnership with Aang. (The last few lines of the song are perfect.)

[lizbee]

This is amazing. Sometimes, with fantasy shows, you can totally be literal with the most metaphorical of lyrics, and that totally works here. I love it, and I hope it will go up as a download after the reveal.

[tephra]

Absolutely gorgeous.

[toshirodragon]

Fantastic! The clips illustrate the song wonderfully.

[thingswithwings]

oh wow, this is gorgeous! what an amazing and bold song choice - and then you've followed through on it so beautifully. I clapped at the end, because the final image was just perfectly chosen - going forward together! It's tentative and halting and powerful all at the same time. YAY! I will watch it eleventy billion times starting NOW.

[eruthros]

I love this so much! You've drawn the parallels beautifully, and given the Avatar-verse history so much layered weight and repetition. I really love the last few images, where the awkward moments of transition have such potential. The last shot is seriously perfect! <3<3<3

[unjapanologist]

This is amazingly well done and so appropriate it's almost creepy. Kudos.

[alias_sqbr]

This is fantastic!

[stultiloquentia]

Wow. Wowowow. *replays*

[sholio]

Oh, this is wonderful! Great editing and song choice. :)

[musesfool]

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! It is EXACTLY what I wanted when I requested a vid to this song. I know it's kind of literal? But I thought it would work and you totally made it work by focusing on Aang and Zuko, and it's perfect. It's beautiful. I'm actually crying right now as I type this because it's so very much what I wanted. I especially love the ending, with the kids coming together to say that the time is now and the war is going to end. ♥

(I'm sorry I didn't get to comment sooner - I can't watch vids at work.)

Again, thank you.

[beccastareyes]

Wow. I love how you took a song about a force of nature and made it work about the Avatar and the Fire Nation. And excellent use of repetition and the editing.

[glass_icarus]

OMG this was fantastic!!! The editing was amazing, and I especially liked the flow of the action shots, which connected beautifully. :)

[starlit_purple]

Oh, this is amazing! Love the song, and you've made the whole thing flow beautifully with the music. <3

[crossedwires]

This is gorgeous. I like how the lyrics match the visuals. ♥
