Lyrics
L is for the way you look at me
O is for the only one I see
V is very, very extraordinary
E is even more than anyone that you adore and

Love is all that I can give to you
Love is more than just a game for two
Two in love can make it
Take my heart and please don't break it
Love was made for me and you

L is for the way you look at me
O is for the only one I see
V is very, very extraordinary
E is even more than anyone that you adore and

Love is all that I can give to you
Love is more than just a game for two
Two in love can make it
Take my heart and please don't break it
Love was made for me and you

Love was made for me and you
Love was made for me and you

Dr Horrible don't be sad, Hammer's just a phase, your time will come! This was so sweet, the fumbling awkwardness, the imaginary dancing, f'ing Hammer cutting in and making it all about him, how dare he! I love the title of this vid, and the ending clips, very spot on.

[blithesea]

This is my favourite comment of them all, the first one I got, and just like I feel it. Thank you!

[laurashapiro]

This is both hilarious and freaky. Nice work!

[blithesea]

Thank you! The crescendo of this song always has felt a bit desperate and freaky to me. :-)

[cantarina]

This is one of the most charming things I've seen all day, while totally preserving the goofiness of the canon. It's great!

[blithesea]

Thank you! I love the webseries to bits, I'm glad you feel I did it justice!

[faith_girl222]

this was so cute!

[blithesea]

Thank you! :-)

[leanwellback]

Oh, this is wonderful! Great work :D

[blithesea]

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!

[cofax7]

Oh, that was very good!

[blithesea]

Thank you!

[lotesse]

This is witty and snappy and rhythmic and great; I loled.

[blithesea]

Thank you! :-)

[lithiumdoll]

Heeeeeeee! Love it :D

[blithesea]

Thank you! I love that you love it. :-)

[purplefringe]

This is completely sweet and charming and heartbreaking! I love it!

[blithesea]

Thank you! I actually meant to make a treat for you, but time bit me in the behind. I'm glad you liked this, too!

[frayadjacent]

This is great! Dr Horrible strikes me as tough to vid, due to limited source and lots of moving mouths. But you did fantastic work with it!

[blithesea]

Thank you! It didn't strike me as that hard at first, but when I decided not to use any of the third act's death and destruction, I had to scrounge up everything I had. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[actiaslunaris]

This kind of broke my heart, just like the source, because it starts sweet and romantic and then Hammer comes along and it all goes wrong. It's a very effective shift in tone, especially with the song choice.

[blithesea]

Thank you for the lovely comment. The source breaks my heart, too, and not even seeing Hammer crying on a couch made up for it.

[par_avion]

Love the head-butt at 1:28! Poor Dr. Horrible. I liked where you left off, it shows the dark turn bu not the death + devastation.

[blithesea]

Thank you! The head-butt was one of my favourites in the original source, so I had to put it to good use! And I'm glad you liked the end point, I agonized over that for some time.

[littleheaven]

I've never seen the source, but the narrative was excellent, and I was giggling madly for most of the vid. Especially at Nathan Fillion. ROFL. Very cute indeed.

[blithesea]

Heeeee, you should! It's a very enjoyable three-quarters of an hour, and Fillion is great in it! Thank you for the lovely comment.

[cosmic_llin]

Awww, this was so sweet!

[blithesea]

Thank you! :-D

[hmmyeahokay]

Awwwww...

[blithesea]

Yeah... That's what I was going for. ;-) Thank you for commenting!

[colls]

This is wonderful!

[blithesea]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[franzeska]

This is so cute! The rhythm to your editing is great.

[blithesea]

Thank you! Rhythm often doesn't come naturally to me, so your praise means a lot. <3

...and please don't break it

[yourlibrarian]

Oh fun! Love the look at the triangle.

Re: ...and please don't break it

[blithesea]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!

[fan_eunice]

OMG so adorable, and awkward and then it all goes so wrong hilariously but with feelings and somehow you managed to capture all of it while being completely charming. <3

[blithesea]

Heee, thank you! It's how I feel about the source, I'm glad I managed to get it across! <3

[gnattery]

Ahhh, romance. :D

[blithesea]

Yeah, one of the worst. :-) Thank you for commenting!

[bingeling]

Oooh, adorable and bittersweet! Great song choice, great editing to the song. What a precious vid. ♥

[blithesea]

Thank you! It took me a long time to settle on the music, I'm glad it worked out!

[thirdblindmouse]

Very nice character study of Dr. Horrible and his relationship fail. I like how you created humor with the contrast of the lyrics with footage; very cute vid!

[blithesea]

Thank you! The lyrics always seemed more like satire the frenzier the song got towards the end, I tried to use that for the vid. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[aurora]

Absolutely lovely! And sad!

[blithesea]

Thank you! I find the source very sad for all its levity.
