Edit2: HOLY SEASHELLS AND TEA, GUYS. DAILY SECOND PLACE??? Just woke up EVERYONE in my house by screaming! Thank you so much, my first submission to Newgrounds! And thank you to everyone who's reviewed, you're all so helpful!

EDIT : She looks like she is running backwards because of THE CORRIDOR. It is a DREAMSCAPE, THE WALLS ARE MOVING BACKWARDS BECAUSE THE WHOLE CORRIDOR APART FROM THE FLOOR IS MOVING.

I worked on this for nine months. It's my first full animation.

I presented this today (16th March 2009) after I gave my GCSE English presentation, which was on a topic of my choice. I chose animation, and then, as I said, showed my class this.

I think they liked it, I'm not sure.

I put my heart and soul into this for nine months. Please treat it nicely.

Many thanks to everyone who supported me during this horrendously challenging feat: My parents, my friends, my sister, and Aardman animation studios for putting up with me hanging around one afternoon. They gave me the confidence I needed to finish this project. Thank you all so much, this would not have been possible without you.

Enjoy.

Love from,

Nine months well spent!

A very nice animation, it's clear that you have a real talent and an huge interest in animation. Also fun with the small jokes, like the fact that her belt is the Smash bros. emblem! I look forward to see your future works!

WOW!

i can w8 2 see what else you are going to do! i can sooo c u doing manga or somthing like that in the future! 10/10 5/5 XD rock on!

Good, love the song too!

Well, believe it or not I had an idea for an flash animation on this same song ('cept I don't know/can't create flashes XD!), so I'm glad I'm not crazy!

Although I liked the song, and the main storyline, there were a few things that I didn't like and think could have been done better.

1) Some things were too literal : for instance 'how many times did he cross the line?' and there she was, standing next to an oddly shiny line. Its probably just my taste, but the literacy of certain scenes like this just bug me. Still not that big of a deal
2) Lots of repetition - Instead of using the same scenes for the chorus, add to the storyline. For instance, instead of going A B C B D (like you did), go A B C D E and add some more to the storyline the second time through the chorus.

Other than my two little rants, its overall a good flash (and good song choice). So keep it up!
