Oh, that was so lovely! You created an almost dreamlike quality, I really liked the slow motion in some of the shots and the gentle, meditative pace. The sequence in the middle with the violin seemed especially perfect -- "I listen to the strings buzz,
the metal vibrates underneath your fingers." That fits Sherlock so perfectly, and it's wistful and sensual and romantic. It was a brilliant touch, too, to have silence fall at the moment that Sherlock jumped. And I loved the quiet sequence at the end in which we get to enjoy the comfort of knowing that he can and does return to John and to Baker Street. Beautiful!!

That was beautiful! Such perfect sequencing of the clips with the lyrics and such a powerful choice of clips. I especially liked the subtle opening and closing of the door at the end.

Very nice. Haunting and atmospheric.

This was such a beautiful, brilliant, dreamlike video. Lately I've been feeling nostalgic over everything that BBC Sherlock was, and watching this kind of heightened that and plucked at my heartstrings in no small way. The music, the scenes you chose and how you pieced them together - it turned up the dial on my nostalgia and broke off the knob. I love it.

Thank you so much for making it. You're brilliant.
