SV, "Down Here" (David Wilcox song), here. It's ... let's just say I discovered that Lana is absolutely gorgeous when she's just standing there. Comments encouraged and appreciated.
I had to watch it a couple of times before I got it as a whole instead of as first-verse-story, second-verse-story, coda-encapsulation (because occasionally I'm slow ;)--but *as* a whole, this is just *lovely*. Taking the two outsiders from Clark's life and flipping the perspective so suddenly *Clark's* on the outside...or maybe not flipping the perspective, maybe just forcing us to see Lana and Lex the way Clark actually does at the end of the third season, forcing us to feel his isolation from the two people whose lives he wants to be a part of so *very* badly...
I don't know if you *meant* it to be an exercise in perspective examination, but dang, it *works* as one. *g* And, as I've come to expect from your vids, it's well-put-together; your editing choices were really nicely-made, and that song is *perfect* for the story/themes I got out of the vid.
Hey, thanks! The perspective was tricky because the lyrics as I interpreted them actually have a "we" that's different from the "you." I'm glad you enjoyed it.

So, yes: *LOVE* :)
