• Comments: This AMV took part at the Connichi AMV Contest 2005.
  
  It was the SECOND BEST AMV in the CATEGORY FUN.
  
  It took me 6 weeks to create this AMV. I have used diverse edit tools and believe me, you won't be able to find 90% of this AMV anywhere in the anime. It was especially hard to create a singing photo (while zooming in) and a singing magazine. However, it was worth every sleepless night, I am happy with the result.
  
  The music comes directly from the video version of "Jesus He Knows Me". Phil Collins talks so nicely. When I watched the DVD last Christmas I thought... that fits to Anderson (Hellsing), so I had to create it. The AMV is as close as possible a homage to the original Genesis video.
  
  It was put into the Fun Category of the Connichi2005, however, it's more kind of a Parody. It's more cynical than funny, just like the song is.
  
  Enjoy this AMV. Watch it more than once, I am sure you'll discover more and more small details as you go along ^-^.
  
  --------
  Here is the text (if you have problems to understand what Collins says/sings):
  It was on a divine visitation that the Lord told me that I was to go on to television
  I was laying on the bed and the bed began to go around
  And I had this sensation like I was on a miracle round
  And then the furniture joined in and then I was in the stars
  There were stars everywhere
  Above me, below me, to the left of me, to the right of me – millions and millions of stars
  And the Lord said: The stars are the souls that you’ll win for me
  The Lord actually talks to me, you know, I hear what’s beg he said
  And he said to me: Give me 18 million dollars by the weekend
  And the Angel of the Lord stands by my side and speaks into my ear
  It’s a beautiful thing and I hear what’s being said
  It’s a marvellous, marvellous experience, I never thought that such a thing could happen
  In the name of Jesus!
  
  And the Lord spoke to me
  He said: stretch forth your hand
  Tell the people to put their hands against yours and I will heal them
  Get me 18 million dollars by the weekend
  Touch the screen! Touch the screen!
  
  You see the face on the TV screen, coming at you every Sunday
  See that face on the billboard, that man is me
  On the cover of the magazine, there's no question why I'm smiling
  You buy a piece of paradise, you buy a piece of me
  I'll get you everything you wanted, I’ll get you everything you need
  Don't need to believe in hereafter, just believe in me
  
  (Refrain)
  Cos Jesus he knows me, and he knows I’m right
  I've been talking to Jesus all my life
  Oh yes he knows me, and he knows I’m right
  And he's been telling me everything is alright
  
  I believe in the family, with my ever loving wife beside me
  But she don't know about my girlfriend, or the man I met last night
  Do you believe in God, cos that is it what I'm selling
  And if you wanna get to heaven, all I see you right
  You won't even have to leave your house, or get outta your chair
  You don't even have to touch that dial, cos I'm everywhere
  
  (Refrain)
  
  God save the way he just uses me as his instrument
  He speaks his power through my voice
  In the sign of the cross, Jesus told me that
  
  Won't find me practising what I'm preaching, won't find me making no sacrifice
  But I can get you a pocketful of miracles, if you promise to be good, try to be nice
  God will take good care of you, just do as I say, don't do as I do
  
  I'm counting my blessings, I've found true happiness
  Cos I'm getting richer, day by day
  You can find me in the phone book, just call my toll free number
  You can do it anyway you want, just do it right away
  There'll be no doubt in your mind, you'll believe everything I'm saying
  If you wanna get closer to him, get on your knees and start paying
  
  (Refrain 2x)
  
  One day I was standing before the cameras right here in the cathedral
  When the Lord spoke to me
  He said: Stretch forth your hand and tell the people to put their hands against yours and I will heal them
  He said this is a form of laying-on-hands
  So put your hands on the screens now
  Touch the screen! Touch the screen! Heal! Heal! Heal!
  In the name of Jesus! Heal! Touch the screen!
  Touch…
