Wow, this is fantastic! What an evocative atmosphere the song and source make together.

[odessie]

Thank you so much!

This? Is very cool. I had no idea Jekyll needed a vid, but clearly it does!

[odessie]

Thank you! Clearly there need to be more Jekyll vids. :D

[jekesta]

I'd forgotten all about Jekyll, this was great, really effective, and a great use for that song. Love it:)

[odessie]

Thank you!

*Inspired* combination of source and music. The Bond-theme sound of Buble's cover works incredibly well to present Hyde's relationship with Jackman as both weirdly amorous and thoroughly villainous; between that and your editing choices, this vid is just...neat. :D

[odessie]

Thank you so much! I'd never thought of the arrangement as Bond-themey but you're so right, there's a definite Bond-element. :D

The relationship between Jackman and Hyde really is the most interesting on the series, and what you've done with that here with that song . . . I found Buble's cover a little tacky at first but it grew on me and I don't think any of the other versions I know would have worked for this vid.

[odessie]

Thank you! I agree, the Jackman/Hyde relationship is the most interesting in the show to me, as great as the rest of the characters are. It seemed to be crying out for a vid. :D

STUNNING. I've rarely seen a song used so well. Brilliant musicality, lyric matches, the whole concept -- I'm in awe.

[odessie]

Wow, thank you so much for the lovely comment! :D

[laurashapiro]

My pleasure! I'm happy to give credit where it's due.

[petra]

This is perfectly creepy. What an excellent use of the song.

[odessie]

Thank you!

[thuviaptarth]

Ah, this is so creepy and stylish. Great use of the show's dramatic visuals and Nesbitt's amazing performance.

[thuviaptarth]

Also! I forgot to say: I love the serious-ironic take on the series' own take on love as a monster.

[odessie]

Thank you! (For both comments. :D) I'm so glad you got that, this was a little higher concept than any vid I've made before.

[isagel]

This is genius.

[odessie]

Thank you!

[rivkat]

I really enjoyed that! The editing fit the music really well with Hyde's tricks.

[odessie]

Thank you!

[franzeska]

The door slowly sliding open at the beginning: Magic!

I loved the face at 2:11 and how zippy it is after that while still being kind of creepy.

[odessie]

Thank you! Had to use that face once I saw it. :D

[falena]

Choosing this song and using it this way was a real stroke of genius. Kudos!!!

[odessie]

Thank you so much!

[tieleen]

AWESOME song choice, and my god, this was creepy as hell.

[odessie]

Thank you!

[katta]

Supremely creepy and very beautiful, a great mix of images and music that reminds me both of why I loved this show and why I haven't dared rewatch it yet. :-)

[odessie]

Thank you! Yeah, I got a bit creeped out making it to be honest. :D
