Vid: Sit Down

[arevhat]

I made this vid to illustrate Farscape's "family" theme. It was one of my earlier ones and if I could do it over I would use more clips during the refrains. The song always gives me a warm, fuzzy glow and I think the lyrics are perfect for the characters. It was played at the Burbank Con in 2008.

Music: Sit Down by James
Time: 4:07
Summary: I'll sing myself to sleep, a song from the darkest hour.

I'll sing myself to sleep
A song from the darkest hour
Secrets I can't keep
Inside of the day
Swing from high to deep
Extremes of sweet and sour
Hope that God exists
I hope I pray

Drawn by the undertow
My life is out of control
I believe this wave will bear my weight
So let it flow

Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
In sympathy

Now I'm relieved to hear
That you've been to some far out places
It's hard to carry on
When you feel all alone
Now I've swung back down again
It's worse than it was before
If I hadn't seen such riches
I could live with being poor
Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
In sympathy

Those who feel the breath of sadness
Sit down next to me
Those who find they're touched by madness
Sit down next to me
Those who find themselves ridiculous
Sit down next to me
Love, in fear, in hate, in tears

Down
Down

Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
In sympathy

Oh sit down
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
In sympathy

Down

This is a vid in which you caught the heart of Farscape:))) (And Stark with the goose here always cracks me up, in the best way:)))

Thanks, hon! I got the urge to do this one after seeing your lovely Give A Little Bit vid (which Nymeria wants to see but I can't find a link for...probably looking in all the wrong places).

Heh, I'd say Nymeria should have seen that one since she had commented on my LJ entry here :))) Unfortunately Youtube is blocking my both vids with The Goo Goo Dolls music;(

[nebari-rebel.livejournal.com]

LOL! My fault, I think I referred to it not by name but as your "family theme" vid.

Youtube really stinks sometimes. Do they block the whole vid or just the audio? I have one with the audio blocked and I left it up with a download link plastered across the screen.

They block completely my two vids with The Goo Goo Dolls songs and audio for some others. And of course there is about dozen others with "this video can't be seen in some countries", usually in Germany.
