Vidder's Notes:

So, you know how lanning refers to icon therapy? Well, I think I'm all into the vidding therapy. Now that I've been vidding, when I get worn out and I just can't deal, that's what I seem to do. It takes my head to a very, very, very quiet place and that's nice.

At the same time, I don't think vidding is my gift or my art. I have a tendency to just do something to a point that I find to be good enough and then I'm done with it. I only have one vidding idea that will require a lot of learning on my part for execution, and we'll see if I ever even do it.

So, here's my latest vidding therapy. I wanted something upbeat and fun. Something ensemble and not sad. I think I accidentally left Ben out of the mix, though. Huh. I wonder how that happened. But, I even managed to squeeze Hunter in, too.

This vid ended up telling a different story than I intended when I started. I used a lot more S3 than I originally thought. I'd wanted to use a lot of S2 to celebrate my pretty, pretty copies that rosesmove got together for me. I mainly let key clips tell the story. The parts that ended up going to the words, "As you're invading" at the beginning ended up really the defining factor in the end. Yadda yadda. It's not that good. Watch and enjoy! Yay!

Lyrics:

Taxi Ride

lily is dancing
on the table
we've all been
pushed
too far
i guess on days
like this
you know who your
friends are

just another dead fag
to you that's all
just another light missing
on a long taxi ride
taxi ride

and i'm down to
your last cigarette and
this "we are one" crap
as you're invading
this thing you call
love - she smiles
way too much but
i'm glad you're
on my side, sure
i'm glad you're on
my side still

you think you deserve
a trust fund
just because you
want one
sure you talk the talk
when you need to
i fear
the whole world is
starting to
believe you

just another dead fag
to you that's all
just another light missing
in a long taxi line
taxi line

and i'm down to
your last cigarette and
this "we are one" crap
as you're invading
this thing you call
love - she smiles
way too much but
i'm glad you're
on my side, sure
i'm glad you're on
my side still

lily is dancing
on the
table
we've all been pushed
too far today
even a glamorous
bitch can be in
need
this is where you know
the honey
from the
killer bees

i'm glad you're on
my side
sure
i'm glad you're on
my side
sure
i'm glad you're on
my side still

got a long taxi ride
got a long taxi ride
