Gift for Kass by bironic (Big Eden)

[fv_poster]

Title of vid: Jolene
Recipient: Kass
Vidder: bironic
Fandom: Big Eden (2000)
Music: Jolene by Mindy Smith
Summary: Pike/Henry, Dean/Henry. This started out as a silly idea and somehow ended up being sincere. Does that make it a Lord King Bad vid, like the Sheppard/Chaya/McKay one (http://z-rayne.livejournal.com/101372.html)?
Content notes: Jealousy. Song implies infidelity, although the characters weren't together yet in the movie.
Signed length: 02:05

Lyrics
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can

Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green

Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can

He talks about you in his sleep
And there's nothing I can do to keep from cryin'
When he calls your name, Jolene

Now I could easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can

This is really sweet! I haven't seen the movie, but it's a different take than other vids I've seen. (Tim DeKay! Lookin' gorgeous. I buy him as a Jolene.) And I really like this cover of the song, it's more intimate.

Thanks so much. I think this version of the song really made the vid possible for this fandom - it's sweet and sincere and longing like I think the inside of Pike's head must sound. And Tim DeKay could totally steal away anyone Dean, so yep, legitimate threat. :) Glad it worked for you!
