• Comments: Yes, I know it's been done before, but I needed to this anyway as extra credit for my history class so I thought I might as well put it up. My first non-interlaced AMV and the one that took me longest to make.
  I still wish I cold have used more series, but I think that the images I used fit the best out of the 200-odd series I own at least part of (that's right, I own more than four times what I used in this video). I learned some important lessons about preparing footage to remember in future, so this was really a big learning experiance for me.
  
  Can't think of anything else to say, so here are the lyrics (numbers stand for year):
  
  49 harry truman, doris day, red china, johnnie ray

  51 rosenbergs, h-bomb, sugar ray, panmunjom

  Chorus
  We didnt start the fire
  It was always burning
