Everytime I hear the lyric "I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad" I DO NOT want to see someone laughing/smiling and then crying. With this type of sync, the video can become very boring and predictable, especially if you know the lyrics or if it has a repeating chorus. And when I say painful, I mean PAINFUL. I've seen many experienced editors recoil in pain from watching these types of videos. Kind of like watching something so awkward that it hurts to continue watching D:
