Considering what would fit this song...

Post by LoneIgadzra » Sun May 07, 2006 3:24 pm

I'm a bit new at the AMV thing, though not to editing necessarily, and it hit me the other day that Blind Guardian's new song "Fly" would be perfect for some awesome AMV. Probably hell to edit to, since it's rather fast-paced and complicated, and I may have to back-burner it, but I'll worry about that when I figure out what on earth I'm going to put to it.

Here's a sample(you can purchase the song there for fairly cheap too) and lyrics:

Stop be quite now
Out with the light and
Then up and down it goes

Fly
Out with the light

There at the door
The inspiration I've looked for
The spirit of the youth appears

No one ever dares to speak
It's nothing else but fantasy
It's make believe
Make believe

No one ever dares to speak
It's nothing else but fantasy
But one day it all will come to life

Step out of line
And I'll teach you how to fly
Then away we'll go
Leave your mark land of mine
Leave your mark in the land of mine

The second one to right
And then straight on until morning light

Stop be quite now
No irritation
No, not the slightest doubt

We got once
Quick - we better hurry
There from the road I sense
The end of fun gets near
Wonderful thoughts and imaginations
These things will lift you up

What is it like? You ask me, my dear
Will there be fairies or things to fear?
For fairies sake I'd say you better come with me
So soon you'll see
Now up and down it goes and round
Round and round and round

Praise my cleverness
They all follow me
All praise to innocence
That's everything it needs
Fly in
Fly out
They'll leave it all behind

No one ever dares to speak
It's nothing else but fantasy
It's make believe
Make believe

No one ever dares to speak
It's nothing else but fantasy
But one day it all will come to life

Life is a map and it is quite confusing
The lights are up now let the play begin
She flies, she flies
Into the light she flies
No words like "Just" in mind
She's finding Neverland
There one day she dies
Don't stop it now
She still enjoys the scene
Don't stop it now
Don't stop it now
Don't stop it now
Don't stopi it now, now, now

No one ever dares to speak
It's nothing else but fantasy
It's make believe
Make believe
No one ever dares to speak
It's nothing else but fantasy
But one day it all will come to life

Step aout of line
And I'll teach you how to fly
Then away we'll go
Leave your mark land of mine
Leave your mark in the land of mine

Lyrics are obviously referencing the movie "Finding Neverland", and such a fantasy theme immediately makes me think Miyazaki, but I'm not sure the musical style is compatible. Other than that, the only anime's I'm terribly familiar with are Bleach, Cowboy Bebop, Gundam Wing, and Inuyasha, so I need some suggestions. :o

sounds corny ...try the cowboy bebop movie or that new movie that came out, Karas. Maybe Sakura Wars? lots of stuff would work with that, even the Animatrix movie. good luck.
