I was wondering what advice or stories people have about adapting their AMV source to fit song lyrics that don't match up perfectly thematically? Do the full lyrics matter that much to you when planning an AMV? How do you feel about using a song in a way that really isn't the original intention of the song (lyrics)?
I heard the song "One Way Road" by the John Butler Trio recently, and based on the refrain and a bit of the other lyrics I could hear, immediately had Working!! pop into my head since the song is upbeat and "colorful" sounding. But after looking up the full lyrics (he sings rather fast/indistinct) it's actually about like ... anti-big business, corrupt gov't, etc....
