• Comments: Done based on a suggestion from the forums, this one is a profile of Princess Tutu as the "White Queen" of the band Queen's song.
  
  This video is VERY slow toward the beginning, and picks up where the song builds and climaxes toward the end. If you can't sit still for a minute and a half of slow, gracefully panning pictures before you see a lot of movement and little fighting (yes, there is fighting), then don't download this. I'm sick of people not finishing my videos and evaluating them as though they were done to a modern pop song that remains the same in tone and pace over its entire duration.
  
  I made this "Part One" for two reasons. The first is that the name of the song is "White Queen (As It Began)". The second is that white gets the first move in the game of chess. In case anyone was wondering.
  
  And here are the lyrics:
  
  So sad, her eyes -
  Smiling, dark eyes
  So sad, her eyes -
  As it began.
  
  On such a breathless night as this,
  Upon my brow the lightest kiss,
  I walked alone.
  And all around the air did say,
  "My lady soon will stir this way"
  In sorrow known.
  The White Queen walks and the night grows pale,
  Stars of lovingness in her hair.
  
  Needing - unheard.
  Pleading - one word.
  So sad, my eyes.
  She cannot see.
  
  How did thee fare, what have thee seen -
  The mother of the willow green.
  I call her name.
  And 'neath her window have I stayed.
  I loved the footsteps that she made -
  And when she came.
  White Queen how my heart did ache,
  And dry my lips, no word would make.
  So still I wait.
  
  My Goddess, hear my darkest fear.
  I speak too late,
  It's for evermore that I wait.
  
  Dear friend, goodbye.
  No tears, in my eyes.
  So sad, it ends -
  As it began.
