Perfect Blue AMV Song Poll--HELP!

[XShadowSpiritX]

All right, kids, here's the deal. I'm set to make a Perfect Blue vid....however, this is one of those situations where I've actually got more song options than I could have possibly imagined......different genres, different takes on the material, different character studies....and quite frankly I wanna get started on it ASAP before my classes start up again. So, if you all would be so kind, help me decide which of these songs (and ONLY these songs....I've got too many options as it is) I should use, and give a short reason? I have narrowed it down significantly....

A Perfect Circle--3 Libras or Weak And Powerless

Deftones--Lucky You, No Ordinary Love, or Digital Bath

Stone Temple Pilots--Black Again

Otep--My Confession

Massive Attack--Dissolved Girl

Fiona Apple--Sullen Girl

Radiohead--Paranoid Android

As extra incentive, whoever gives the best case for one of the songs, if you have AMVs listed on the site, I'll do ops for a few of them (3 or 4 tops), as well as give special mention in the AMV's description when it's done. I'll definitely be around and keep you all posted as to what I settle on when the time comes.

A Perfect Circle-Weak And Powerless

Otep--My Confession

"Weak and Powerless"

Tilling my own grave to keep me level
Jam another dragon down the hole
Digging to the rhythm and the echo of a solitary siren
One that pushes me along and leaves me so

Desperate and Ravenous |___
I'm so weak and powerless over you |

Someone feed the monkey while I dig in search of China
White as Dracula as I approach the bottom

Desperate and Ravenous |___
I'm so weak and powerless over you |

Pale angel go away
Come again some other day
The devil has my ear today
I'll never hear of what you say
Promised I would find a little solace
And some piece of mind
Whatever just as long as I don't feel so

Desperate and Ravenous ----
I'm so weak and powerless over you |
Desperate and Ravenous |----
I'm so weak and powerless |
over you ----

ok the reasons for this song, the whole stalker thing in perfect blue i have noted where it would seem to merge pretti well

and

"My Confession"

... my confession
because i'm diluted & perfectly flawed
i shall live by passion & not by law

and i'm insecure ... +
i need aggression +

to feed the spiders
of perception

and i'm supposed to be strong
& have all the answers

a cannibal in the new church of cancer

but i'm nothing special +
i'm not unique +
i have many secrets +
& i eat the weak +

and i'm at an end
i'm at an end .....

and there's ...
NO WAY OUT!!

[chorus]

i need to find my sanctuary *
..... someplace safe *
gotta get this outta me *
..... this is my escape *

and i think about it
all the time

i'm volatile
&
afraid to cry

but i'm
still not comfortable
in my skin

and the
anesthetics slowly
wearing thin

& i
need to talk to
someone new
i need a different
latitude

& i'm in this void
all alone!
feeling needy
... hungry to grow

but i'm suffocating
-- can't come down

and .... no ....
THERE'S NO WAY OUT!!!

[chorus]

i need to find my sanctuary *
.... someplace safe *
gotta get this outta me! *
.... THIS IS MY ESCAPE!!! *

--- all i see is sadness
all i see is sadness ....
what's left?

-- this will teach them.
this will teach them,

......you've got to......
push.
Push.
PUSH....
YOUR WAY OUT!!!

FOLLOW ME!
FOLLOW ME!
THIS IS YOUR WAY OUT!!

........you are not alone

- this is where i hide my power
- this is where i become free
- this is where i take control
- and slowly choke your fantasies

- i want to know my day is coming
- see my enemies be punished
- shed my skin again
- this will be my best revenge!!

SHED MY SKIN AGAIN
THIS WILL BE MY BEST REVENGE!

ok this for the fack that mima is a pop idol, and pop is disposable i have this area marked with + , and again the stalker part this time marked as *


hope this helps some

Coming from someone whose PB video is to a pop song (Christina Aguilera's "Fighter") and whose favorite is to an... odd song (Clint Eastwood) I might not be the best help. However, A Perfect Circle's 3 Libras would be interesting from the eyes of Mima's agent...

[XShadowSpiritX]

A Clint Eastwood PB vid? I gotta find that....

And dont worry about musical genres.....I'm open to everything (just no country. 'Kay? 'Kay. ^_^)

[Vlad86]

Someone made a vid(I think, since the download link doesn't work) of Perfect Blue to Orgy's "Stitches". That would be a vid I'd like to see. Also Orgy's "Faces" might also work....

[XShadowSpiritX]

Well, not that anyone gives a damn, judging from the extremely tiny number of people who actually responded to the post, but I've already managed to start and finish a Perfect Circle 3 Libras vid....HOWEVER....I'm going to keep this post open.....because, since I'm an impatient, idea-mongering bastard, Ive decided to make TWO vids....one for Me-Mania's "illusion" of what happened, the other, the dark truth. And I still havent decided which song to use for the second vid. So, ideas on that would be welcome...

...but I'm not holding my breath :p

[Aneino_Kaijin]

Yeah... lost the video when I reformatted my computer and haven't been able to find it on Kaaza since (and its not here! ) but I loved it. It focused on the story from the creepy rapist/security/killa guy's perspective

[XShadowSpiritX]

er...okay, I now officially close this topic.....I was hit by a burst of inspiration yesterday, and now know what three songs I'm going to use....yes, that said three....

Me-Mania's vid: A Perfect Circle, "3 Libras"

"Pop Idol" Mima: Deftones, "Battle-Axe"

Real Mima/Triumphant: Silverchair, "Ana's Song (Open Fire)"

speaking of which, the Perfect Circle vid is on the site now. And since you were the only one to care enough to reply, twice, even, Kaijin gets special mention, and a few ops.....please, hold your applause....:p

Just don't do it to My own Summer, Deftones, cuz my boy Preacher3380x has already done it.

[XShadowSpiritX]

Actually, 2 and 9/10ths of the vids are, officially, done. The first two are already online(finishing the Silverchair one now.). So, your boy's idea is officially safe :p

...though, my own summer is one of my favorite deftones songs....i might check that out anyways...
