Son of Rambow vid: Running Away

[absolutedestiny]

It's been almost 3 years since I did one of these vid things. Ouch. Well, let's carry on as if that hiatus never happened, shall we?

Running Away by AbsoluteDestiny

It's true when you let it go.

There's not a lot for me to say about this vid - I'm hoping it will speak for itself. It is likely to appeal to fans of stories about growing-up, imagination and the art of creating derivative works in video form. Should be fairly popular themes in these parts.

As with most movie vids, spoilers for the movie are frequent. I do recommend watching the movie first but that shouldn't be a huge barrier to comprehension and enjoyment.

Thanks to braver_creature for the song and for her advice and unending encouragement. Further thanks go to fan_eunice, greensilver, sisabet, renenet and sweetestdrain for beta feedback and thanks to everyone for pushing me to start vidding again.

Lyrics:

Warning... nobody has a damn clue what the lyrics really are. These are what I think they are. It probably doesn't matter anyway.

We shake it...
We take it..
with pride
and show!
We like it...
exciting
and ready
to go!
I'm projecting and reflecting desire
for you to come into my life.
The rays of this day will outshine them all
for me and you to get along.
It's like running away with the wind in our face, it's like flying
(flying!)
and you and I are open wide.
It's like running away with the wind in our face, it's like flying
(flying!)
and you and I are open wide.
I feel so excited and delighted today
'cause you decided to be in my life.
It's like running away with the wind in our face, it's like flying
(flying!)
and you and I are open wide.
The show...
the electric show!
I get around the world upon your freeways
it's true when you let it go.
I get around the world upon your freeways
it's true when you let it go.
