Yes, this song is from Brokeback Mountain. No, I didn't think it'd make a very good song to vid SPN to either (was planning more along the lines of AC/DC or Metallica) but, here it is.

Evolution of my love of this song: I set all the Rufus songs on my hard drive to play. This one caught my ear. When I finally listened to it on my headphones, looked at the album name, and actually paid attention to the lyrics, ouch. BBM is still one of those movies that makes you cry just thinking about it later. Then I listened to the song some more, and couldn't stand being in agony every time I did so, so, yaknow, the more you listen and think the more the lyrics reveal further layers, and hey, maybe it's not a song about tragedy after all. Or rather, maybe the tragedy isn't as black and white as it seems.

Anyway. Songvids are fun. And by fun I mean there's a sliver of pure joy in there, where you've just completed the editing and watched it in its entirety for the second time; before the hours and hours spent cursing through the rendering and compressing processes and the months of bitterness at getting a disparate amount of feedback to the amount of work that went into it.

Ah, vidding. You'd have to be completely mad.

Where'd you look? It's up on TVTorrents at least.

[hope]

I'm not a fan of torrents... takes too long, anyway! I have a hook-up where I get the avi files, but just have to be patient. ahsdlhdfalsdfasd;.

i haven't seen any supernatural, but i love rufus, and i know i haven't given vids their proper chance. so, i gave it a try.

wow. that was really beautifully done. great sense of timing, especially with the looks and such. and you know what? in the deluge of SPN stuff that i've seen on my friends list and around on LJ, it's this that has convinced me. i'll give the show a try. *trots off to explore downloading communities*

[hope]

awesome!!! thankyou for the wonderful feedback :D

and *cough* even if you're really disappointed with the first episodes, persevere through mainlining them... it really gets into the swing of it after the early clunkiness. :)

This was wonderful.
A very bittersweet way of looking at the early Sam. So much love for Jess, so much pain at losing her, so much innocence there. Quite different from the Sam of Season 3.
I love Rufus' music and this song fit so perfectly with the clips. I did try to save it, but for some reason wasn't able to. So, I'll have to content myself with watching it on you tube.
I can certainly see why this was nominated. If you won, yea! If you didn't, you should have won something.
Thanks so for sharing.

You know, for some reason Sam's suffering doesn't get to me the same way Deans does. Huh. But the 'bleak and tragic, and yet not entirely so' was there, too.

Also: The download doesn't work for me - could I make you do something about that? And the other one as well, if that's all right with you *is anal that way sometimes* - you know, 'bewitched'? I find the stuff you make and warn not to take seriously utterly charming ♥

I'll poke at my webhost when I get a moment. My plate is kinda full at the moment! But duly noted :)
