title: Tainted Love
pairings: House, House/Cuddy/Wilson, House/Cuddy, House/Wilson, Wilson/Cuddy
song: Tainted Love by Marilyn Manson
duration: 3;19
disclaimer: Not I, said the fly!
summary & notes: A video from House's perspective, largely a character study of sorts through themes of relationships, pain and drug issues. The storyline: House, Cuddy and Wilson end up in a messy, complicated entanglement, which evolved over time through House's issues. None of them are willing to call it a relationship, yet they are all so entangled with each other that they can't quit what is going on between them. Through this threesome, they develop strange, secret relationships with each other - House with Cuddy, Cuddy with Wilson, House with Wilson. House being House becomes increasingly troubled with his drug and pain issues, and out of his own sheer jealousy problems becomes increasingly suspicious and jealous of Wilson and Cuddy's relationship. He fears he's going to lose his friendship with Wilson and Cuddy, though he won't admit it, and that leads him on a downward spiral - and drives the relationship between the three of them towards mutual destruction.

I discovered this plug-in that creates a jerky camera effect! So, I had to experiment because omg. Awesome feature the programme I use comes with. I used this plug-in incorporated with a film filter that creates a grainy, low-quality film effect - which results in a very gritty, edgy feel to the footage. Initially, I was just mucking around in Vegas to see what I could do with the plug-in, using Tainted Love to experiment with, because it's such a cool, gritty song. I know - some people are going to laugh at that. Like, omgwtf a House vid to a Marilyn Manson song?? Lololol. Either lol at that fact or enjoy the vid - I don't mind which. But the reason why I decided to use these filters and plug-ins throughout the whole video is because I wanted to give a disorienting feel to the video; to make the viewer feel like they're inside House's head, thinking his chaotic thoughts and feeling his chaotic emotions.

The downside to it is the file size - both the plug-in and the filter resulted in the vid being way bigger in file size than I expected. 1GB, to be precise. I managed to compress it down to 96MB, which was as small as I could get it without losing picture quality. The vid doesn't look anywhere near as good in YouTube as it does from the actual file itself. So, if you want a much better quality than what YT offers, I recommend downloading it.

Big thanks to euclase for uploading it to YT for me! ♥

tainted love by marilyn manson

Sometimes I feel I've got to...
Run away I've got to...
Get away...
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Oh...tainted love
Tainted love

Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And you think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Oh...tainted love
Tainted love

Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go
Tainted love, tainted love
Tainted love, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love

I knew it'd be this song as soon as you told me :) Plan on watching it later when I come down a bit from XF. I'll be back, promise.

[ladynina1.livejournal.com]

WOW!!!! I love the newer version of the song! Much more edgy than the one i am used to (modern english if I'm not mistaken) absolutely loved it!!!!

[miss-cuddles.livejournal.com]

great job.. as always though... i love the graphic!

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

This is brilliantly done! Great work!

[oqidaun.livejournal.com]

great song for a video.
nice!

waited until i had the casa to myself and watched it a second time with volume turned up loud on my big computer in the front living room and...SHIT THAT'S AWESOME!!!

[ladycharena.livejournal.com]

tainted love is one of my alltime favs! Both the Soft Cell and the MM-Version. Unfortunately I can't see the vid, my stoneage internet connection doesn't stomache vids or anything more advanced then eMails, but I've chaught some glimpses and it's amazing.

[hirenkoi.livejournal.com]

FANTASTIC!! And the music is... perfect!! \o/

[innocent-motive.livejournal.com]

You always make the BEST fan videos! I was wondering if you could re upload Sober and Run to sendspace? They're no longer available and I would love to have the on my MP3 player!

[ayalanetzer.livejournal.com]

Very very awesome!

[silent-snark.livejournal.com]

Soft Cell :)

[euclase.livejournal.com]

I was expecting the Soft Cell original, especially when I downloaded it and saw it on my desktop--but then you said Marilyn on AIM, and WOW, I am so glad you chose that cover instead. It really, really works. Especially with the awesome jaggedy camera effects.

YOU SO AWESOME.

I also like how you were able to work in the Wilson/Cuddy--that was smoothly (and sneakily!) done.

Rock. :D

[silent-snark.livejournal.com]

Oh. My. God.

I think I love you.

(Adding to memories)

OMG, awesome. Let me begin at the beginning and say how much I love the beginnings of your vids. The shaky camera effect was really appropriate. You went a little happy with it, but it still works. Favorite part was the bit with House spying on Wilson and Cuddy in the restaurant. I love when footage is manipulated like that to tell a different story, and you do it really well. Also, you always pick the best "everyone with very distressed faces" footage. Hee. You have this wonderful way of choosing footage that is perfect for the moment. God, I love your vids. The House/Wilson/Cuddy angst-fests are some of my favorites. =D

[theyreforrachel.livejournal.com]

Fantastic video, loved all the effects. Great song choice as well!

[amy-119.livejournal.com]

This was really good. Very disorienting, and I say that with all the love in the world. =D You definitely succeeded in that aspect of it. I also LOVE the song. I have never heard that cover, and you did a great job incorporating the song with the footage. My favorite part was 0:22. You timed Wilson turning perfectly with the music and I flailed a little. LOL. That whole sequence of them walking away from each other was great. I really love the feel of the vid. Great job! <3

[tourmaline1973.livejournal.com]

Ticcy you are a genius artist :D

Never heard the MM version of that song before - makes the Soft Cell version sound rather jolly by comparison :)

[asus2004.livejournal.com]

Fantastic vid!

Love the song, the scenes you put together and all the effects!

Great job!

[crumpled-up.livejournal.com]

Whoa. Definitely edgy and dark and painful and broken. Love, love, love the new effects! Brilliant way of using them. They captured House's tortured mind and conflicted feelings to the T. I've never heard this version of the song before so that only added to the awesomeness that you've created. :D

[a-celeste.livejournal.com]

Marilyn Manson and House M.D. actually makes total sense! I've been waiting for someone to do Tainted Love done right. THANK YOU. FABULOUS. I love the twitchy cam filter and then Marilyn's raspy voice. It's so rugged and fits the OT3 storyline.

[rawiyaparand.livejournal.com]

This was so awesome. I don't even know what to say.

First, I love Marilyn Manson's version of this song and it fit perfectly with the jerky effects.

I dunno. I feel like going "akjdfkl;adjfk;ladfja;dfja;df jad;fjadj YOU'RE AMAZING!!!!!1111111ONEONEONE" and just leaving that as my comment, but that would be uncouth, non?

Brilliant as usual.

[cenori.livejournal.com]

MAN, that was intense. I love the Manson version of that song. You never realize just how dark and depressing a song it is until you hear it like that, and the context of it is just perfect for this vid. And gaaah, you outdo yourself every time. I love how gritty this was. Yay for Ticcy!vids :D

[rae2007.livejournal.com]

Fabulous. One of the best vids I've seen.

[gutterflower-86.livejournal.com]

holyfuck. that is wicked brilliant.

[elphie84.livejournal.com]

It's incredible, I- hands down.
I love this version of Tainted Love. Brilliant work.
