[vid] Love Lasts Forever (Wilson/Amber)


download (113MB, .WMV)


title: Love Lasts Forever
pairing: Wilson/Amber
song: Philadelphia by Neil Young
duration: 3;22
disclaimer: When the vulture flies sideways, the moon has hair on its upper lip.
summary/notes: Wilson looking back on his relationship with Amber. Post-finale vid.

I was trawling around on Youtube and came across this song, which I remembered hearing in that Tom Hanks movie, Philadelphia, and was all, OMG MUST MAKE VID. I made this vid to look like a home movie in parts (which is why the download is so big - the filters take up a lot of space), because I wanted to capture the idea of Wilson reminiscing on his relationship with Amber. I also edited the song a fair bit to take the focus away from 'Philadelphia' and onto the theme of the vid more. Huge thanks to [livejournal.com profile] euclase for uploading the song to me! 'Cos I don't know where I would've got it, otherwise.

And... I may have cried a bit while making this vid. Because guh, the season finale. And Wilson. And Amber. And guhhh. I am still grieving a bit, lol.


Watch here



philadelphia by neil young
Sometimes I think that I know
What love's all about
And when I see the light
I know I'll be all right.

I've got my friends in the world,
I had my friends
When we were boys and girls
And the secrets came unfurled.

Someone is talking to me,
Calling my name
Tell me I'm not to blame
I won't be ashamed of love.

Sometimes I think that I know
What love's all about
And when I see the light
I know I'll be all right.
Philadelphia.

It is, yes! Which is why it's so perfect for this vid. And the way you did it, with the old film effects, reflects the end of Philadelphia in a way, and argh, I will always associate this song with home movies and nostalgia. And SADNESS. D:

♥♥♥ I love you tooooooooooooooooooo. DRIVE-BY LOVIN'!! *cuddles you* ♥♥♥

SAME. AND YOU KNOW WHAT. I have been kind of inspired to want to make a 'Wonder Years' kind of House video - like comparing how simple life was back in season one to now. Not that it was simple in season one, but when you compare what's happened - does that make sense? I want to track down a copy of 'With A Little Help From My Friends' by Joe Cocker, like the Wonder Years theme song, and make home movies kind of thing with the vid. Y/N?

*massive massive cuddles and fun with strap ons*

YYYYY! That would be so brilliant. My favorite part of this vid is the contrast between season one and Wilson in the finale. It's so powerful, that dead, hopeless look in his eyes, and House watching him leave. We're always saying that the first season is so much better because it's simpler, and that's the thing - it is simpler. Their lives were simpler. They've all gone through a hell of a lot since then. There might not be any way to go back to the way things were, not completely.

Heeeee, strap ons! Yes, plz. :D
