Uh, heh heh...funny you ask...
I am a huge, and I emphasize, HUGE, FF fan, so I come up with ideas all the time. First, I'll link you here (don't post there, though - it's dead) - the two ideas below are ones that I didn't suggest on that thread, mostly because I fully intended to do them myself eventually.
Final Fantasy X and X-2 - Goldfinger – “99 Red Balloons”
Final Fantasy X and X-2 - H20 – “Like a Prayer”
Gee, sure hope that helps. Really, I post way too much when it comes to my fandom... ~_~
As always, Farewell, Good Luck, and Happy AMV-ing!

Nice thouhts you have, but I haven´t heard any of those songs. So it makes this a bit difficult.
What about: ff8 and Savage garden: To the moon and back ??

Hmm, I love Savage Garden (I have that CD with the song somewhere...), but that song is overdone, I think. Also, I think people focus too much on the romance in FFVIII videos. I like the idea (by the way, it's been done once - I just checked), but I'm not sure how well the video would stand out from others because of the "same old, same old" concept. It's not bad, just not original.
I like brainstorming ideas, because there are lots of people who come up with really awesome ones that I'd love to do. If I'm in the middle of a video when that happens, I just jot them down for later.

PS: I'm kind of surprised that you don't know ANY of the songs. I always thought that I had a pretty eclectic taste in music.

Yesh, I have noticed that there are many many ff videos with same songs.
I think we are in the same level. I think so too that there are too many romance videos, though they are sure nice
And people use too much same parts of the fmv´s.
I would like to do a video, which has more not so many times used parts and non-main charachters. Maybe some day I´ll create a video about Lenne.
And FF7 is almost forgotten. I have only seen couple of videos with those scenes. Mainly with FF7 AC parts.
I would like that FF8 and crash, boom, bang video, because there you can put more explosion scenes
I try to pick songs which I already have. I really don´t buy cd´s or listen radio. I mostly have Nightwish´s music and other Finnish music. I do have foreign music too, but not that much. I would like to hear more, but...
How about FFX and Sixpence none the richter - Kiss me ??( sorry romance
)

Hey, we really do think on the same level. People always complain about seeing the same scenes over and over, but it's only because the creators neglect quite a few of the others.
A Lenne video is a good idea, but you have to admit that there aren't a lot of scenes of her. You'd probably end up doing a general FFX-2 (or X and X-2) video with a song that reflects her character.
Hey, if you want to see some really good FFVII (and X) videos, look here. It's a thread that I posted on very recently. The guy was asking for good VII and X videos, so I super searched ALL of the videos and came up with those. If you like, I could do the same for VIII. I don't really like VIII, but I'd do it. Also, videos using Advent Children bother me. I mean, it's not even out really, so why use crappy trailer clips?
Finnish music? Cool. ^_^
Also, I know I've seen an FFX - "Kiss Me" video, but it's not on this site, so I guess it's fair game. Oh, and FFX can usually be only one of two things - A) romance; B) extreme sadness, so I guess that a romance video is expected in this case.

Yesh, I think you´re right, but it could be done soit wouldn´t mind. Short song and carefully selected scenes. I haven´t thought this very far, but slowly it´ll come to me. Would it be possible to make that video like real music video? I mean like she sings, alone or with Yuna, and that would be showed time to times and other parts would be something else.

Thanks. I´ll watch those videos.
Ff8 isn´t that good, yeah. All I liked about it was Squall

But ff7 and ffx & x-2 are interesting me. I wondered that too. Why using trailer clips. They don´t look that good and there´re same scenes once again.
Yesh, Finnish music. I would like to use those, but noone wouldn´t understand the words and it wouldn´t really match with fmv´s.
People have used Nightwish and maybe Sonata arctica, but that´s it. Hey, what about using Him - Join me and ffx??
Am I so late? Damn. All my ideas used already. Hmm. maybe I really should use Finnish music

I used fairly uncommon scenes in my "Cloud is the Bullgod" vid... ^_^;;
As for why people use the Advent Children trailer clips... well, it's new compared to just FFVII footage by itself.
There's only so many scenes that were usable in that old game, after all, and adding fanart and the like is always blaringly obvious compared to CG, 3-D footage. So yeah, I've supplemented my vids with that at times (And doujinshi I colored myself for that particular mentioned vid... Needed more scenes, dangit.
)
