Never the same song twice....

Anyone else out there have trouble listening to a song you used in an AMV? I can never listen to song the same way again. I keep seeing the scenes fom my videos. Especially the first one, since I spent more time on it. Any ideas on how to cure this little nuissance?

I find this happening to me a lot too, but it doesn't bother me much.

It's a curse that happens to everyone. Once you make an AMV you will never be able to hear that song again without imagining the AMV in your head. I don't mind except on some occassions.

I thought that was one of the fringe benefits of creating the AMV... you never actually have to watch it again, just play the song and it'll play in your head =P no downloading, no computers, no monitor, no clunky laptops, no expensive equipment, it's just all up there... either that or you go nuts =P

We should go on some crusade to inform newbies about this so that they don't produce complete crap (they'll produce "not quite crap" instead).

I get this all the time. Since the two vids I've done so far are to songs I listened to frequently... and still do... I've got my vids engrained in my skull, down to the last cut and fade.

Not that that's a bad thing, of course.

Yeah, after working almost non stop for weeks (or in rare cases, months) Ive basicly memorized my video to the frame. Its annoying.

happens way too much, for instance when i listen to "cemetary gates" by pantera,it makes me think of wolfwood, and i keep thinking the song is gonna end like it did in my vid(i remixed the song a bit)

Yeah, had this happen (as a result, whenever I listen to 'Killer Klowns From Outer Space' I feel a great pang of guilt for that P.O.S.)
Hell, even had it happen with vids I haven't even started yet (the planning plays out in my head with the song)

Same, I find it annoying sometimes and I notice that I don't listen to these songs as much anymore. I still like them though.
