  • Comments: Well.........this vid is....interresting. Lol. This vid is a co-creation between Graceria and Songbird21.

    GRACERIA: I thought this song hadn't been used enough (And I've looked. There's only one other vid to it that's downloadable). I decided on a various cause there's no way one series could cover all the extremely diverse lyrics in this song. Anime is the remedy for all that ails you! We hope this video brightens your day! Side note: 21 anime went into this sucker.

    SONGBIRD21: Most of it is made with American release DVD capture, but some of it is from the Hong Kong DVDs. It's the only way to get Naruto right now. As many of you know, the HK releses don't capture well so you'll have to bear with us. It's not all that bad though. But the imperfections are more visible at full screen.

    It's too bad this song isn't used much, but we can kinda see why. It's a VERY difficult song to work with. We agonized for a week over what to use for the "Born on the fourth of july." line.

    The sound is okay. As I've said many times b4........my music ripping program sucks. I would rate the sound at a 7.


    Below, for your reading pleasure, we present to you the lyrics for the song. Any bits we decided needed explanation are listed next to the appropriate line. They are separated by the way we sectioned off the lines when we chose our clips. We STRONGLY suggest you read them b4 viewing the vid unless you know them by heart, otherwise this vid could get confusing:

    (Long music intro)

    I saw fireworks from the freeway
    and behind closed eyes I cannot make them go away
    Cause you were born on the fourth of July,
    freedom ring
    now something
    on the surface
    it stings
    I said something on the surface
    well it kinda makes
    me nervous

    who says that you deserve this - (From Naruto) The entire adult population of the town hates Naruto and he didn't do anything to deserve it.

    and what kind of god- This guy is considered a "God" by the plant demons in Blue seed.
    would serve this?- God guy made people turn into plant thingies.

    We will cure this
    dirty old disease
    well if you've gots the poison
    I've gots the remedy

    ======================
    The remedy
    is the experience.
    It is a dangerous
    liaison
    I says the comedy
    is that its serious.
    Which is a strange enough

    new play on words- The girl here (Kagome) can say "Sit" and magically make the boy fall flat on his face.

    I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend, the rest of your nights
    with the light on
    So shine the light on all of your friends

    when it all amounts to nothin' in the end.- (From Inu Yasha) The whole Kikyo thing is way too complex to explain. Let's just say it fits the line really well.

    ==========================

    Iiiiiiiiiii Iiiiiyi
    I wont worry my life away.

    Hey hey ey ey- A little bit of lipsynch with Rin here.

    Oh oh oh oooooohhhh
    Iiiiiiiiiii
    Iiiiiyi

    I wont worry- Lip synch

    my life away.

    Hey hey ey ey- Lip synch

    Oh oh oh oooooohhhh

    ====================
    (Music section)

    Well I heard
    two men

    talking on the radio- Lip synch

    in a cross fire kind of new reality show- I swear almost every movement in this clip matches the voice.

    Uncovering the ways to plan the next big attack
    well they were counting down the ways
    to stab
    the brother
    in the
    be right back
    after this

    the unavoidable kiss, (From Naruto) I feel I MUST explain this. They did not mean to....eh hem....kiss. Naruto was standing on Sasuke's desk and another classmate accidentally bumped into Naruto, making him fall into that, um, position. So that's why the kiss was, well.......unavoidable.

    where the minty fresh
    death breath

    is sure to outlast- Lip synch. Ninja guy. Bottom left corner.

    this catastrophe
    dance with me,
    cause if you've gots the poison,
    I've gots the remedy,


    ============================
    the remedy
    is the experience.

    It is a dangerous liaison- We spent 3 hours on this damn thing and I'm still not totally happy with it (Graceria says she thinks it's fine). We cut out Kagome and stuck her in the upper left hand corner. Unfortunately the chroma key in Adobe isn't very good. We did this bit because we wanted to emphasize that Kagome made Inu Yasha fall.

    I says the comedy- We edited Nami's hand to bounce to the music. Coulda been better, but I like it.

    is that its serious. - Lip synch

    Which is a strange enough new play on words- We were desparate for something to fit this line by that point.
    I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend
    the rest of your nights
    with the light on
    So shine the light
    on all of your friends

    when it all amounts (Note how Sakura's body moves to the voice here) to nothin' in the end.- I added the pretty shinies that match the beat. ^_^/

    ==============================

    Iiiiiiiiiii
    Iiiiiyi
    I wont worry
    my life away.

    Hey hey ey ey- Lip synch

    Oh oh oh oooooohhhh
    Iiiiiiiiiii Iiiiiyi
    I wont worry
    my life away.
    Hey hey ey ey
    Oh oh oh oooooohhhh

    ==========================

    When I fall in love
    I take my time
    There's no need to hurry
    when I'm making up my mind

    You can turn off the sun- Added a lens flare to the woman's eye.

    but I'm still gonna shine

    and I'll tell you why- Pretty obvious lip synch.

    ================================

    Because the remedy

    is the experience- lip synch

    It is a dangerous liaison
    I says the comedy, is that its serious.
    Which is a strange enough new play on words
    I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend
    the rest of your nights with the light on
    So shine
    the light
    on all of your friends
    when it all amounts to nothing in the end.- You're probably wondering what the Hell this is. It's from a Blue Seed Omake. I just thought it fit. Not to mention it's funny.

    ===================================

    Iiiiiiiiiii Iiiiiyi , cause I won't
    I wont worry my life away.
    Hey hey ey ey
    Oh oh oh
    oooooohhhh
    I won't, I won't Iiiiiiiiiii Iiiiiyi won't
    I wont worry
    my life
    away. I won't worry
    my life
    and I won't
    I won't worry my life awaaaaaaay.- Notice how the final pullback says "End" on it.


    We now present to you......................Anime is the Remedy. Enjoy! ^_^/ ^_^/
