Lyrics
Don't you turn off my radio
Please don't turn off my radio
Not with the rope still swinging
While eternity's mouth is singing

So insect I'm in amber
Days go by please don't forget
Uneven, so enamored
Days go by remember that

Gray goes black

Can't you hear my radio?
Don't you hear my radio?
Not with the beast still sleeping
While eternity's eyes are weeping

So insect I'm in amber
Days go by please don't forget
Uneven, so enamored
Days go by remember that

Gray goes black

Into the blood we sink and burn
Gray goes black

OMG YOU ROCK SO HARD!!!

A 'Miracles' vid that is made of sheer awesomeness!

Thanks so much, As Yet Unknown Vidder! \o/

{{{hugs}}}

There was no way I could compare with the lovely Alva vid you got last year, and I know he's your fave. ;-) I was hopeful it would suffice in spite of that!

[killabeez]

Oooh, Mark Lanegan—awesome choice. This is terrifying! I got goosebumps. Now I want to watch the whole show over again.

[gwyn]

I want to rewatch, too! Clipping with the sound off wasn't good enough. When you get back, maybe we should do that.

[killabeez]

It's a plan!

[mfirefly10]

Oh, this show was so under-rated :(

Awesome vid. Fantastic song choice.

[gwyn]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it -- and I miss the show so much, too.

[cupidsbow]

I love how surreal you've made this.

[gwyn]

Thank you! I wanted to play around with colors and such in the vid to make it even more surreal than it already seems. It was kind of fun!

[lithiumdoll]

Completely fantastic!

[gwyn]

Thank you! It was fun to "rewatch" the show again.

[frayadjacent]

Wow. I don't know this source at all -- and I'm not sure I want to! -- but you have made a seriously cool, creepy, fascinating vid. I love your use of flashes and very short clips; they really added to the creepy and unsettling atmosphere of the vid.

[gwyn]

Thanks! Really, it's a super cool show, very intelligent and deep, and while it's all wrapped up in this horror kind of theme, there are these really intense personal stories about one's place in the world, connections between people, the subconscious...it's just a really amazing show.

[franzeska]

I've never seen the source, but you set a wonderful mood here.

[gwyn]

Thank you! It's a pretty damn awesome show.

[franzeska]

It's been on my stuff people talk about around yuletide that I should see one of these years list for ages. It's just... a long list. :)

Thank you!

[fan_eunice]

Gorgeously creepy and wonderful. I really enjoyed this a lot.

[gwyn]

Yay! Thank you so much -- I really appreciate it.

[echan]

Woah, creepy, and very haunting!

[gwyn]

Thank you so much! Creepy is what I was shooting for, so it's good to know I succeeded!

[arduinna]

Oh, wow, this is great - fantastic song choice, and you nailed all the creepy goodness of the show, and how Paul finds himself at the center of all these things he doesn't understand. Gorgeously done!

[gwyn]

Thank you, sweetie! Creepy goodness is pretty much what I wanted to show. ;-)

This was terrific. Considering how short the series was, you chose some unexpected scenes and told the story really well. Lovely music connection, too. Thanks for sharing it.
