Summary: The Dashwood sisters may not always fit in, but they always fit each other.

Or bends with the remover to remove:

That looks on tempests and is never shaken" - William Shakespeare, Sonnet 116

Lyrics
Nobody can tell ya
There's only one song worth singing
They may try and sell ya
Cause it hangs them up to see someone like you
But you've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along

You're gonna be nowhere
The loneliest kind of lonely
It may be rough going
Just to do your thing's the hardest thing to do
But you've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along

So if you cannot take my hand
And if you must be going
I will understand
You've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
You've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music

Um, I think I have something in my eye. ::sniff::

Oh, Festividder, you break my heart in the best possible way! How wonderful and surprising this song is for this story! I got positively giddy when you started the vid with Margaret -- it's great to have her be the star for once, and the song fits her so well. And then it was cool to see how it could fit Elinor and Marianne as well. What a great celebration of their individual characters, and family love. Thank you so much!

Oh Dashwood sisters. This song totally fits them. <3 I adore that you started out with Margaret and gave her her own verse! And full speed ahead in the carriage at the end, woe to anyone in the way. :)

I like how you've incorporated all three sisters and their storylines in this! The transitions between the narrative sections are really well done. And yeah, it's great to see the focus start on Margaret. :D

Wonderful vid! I don't remember this film as well as I should -- must remedy that -- but this was such a sweet tribute to the family and to Margaret.
