New Vid - Two Little Boys  
So I haven’t posted up a new video in quite a while, so I thought that I would finally get around to finishing this one and show it to everyone. I think someone has already done a video using this song, but I assure everyone that this is all my own, so it should be entirely different… hopefully its ok to do this
This song is such an important song to me (the whole military thing), so I tried my best to kind of re-tell the story in the lyrics. Two best friends shoved into an uncertain and often dangerous environment, but are always there for one another. Hope people like it.

Song: Two Little Boys
Artist: Rolf Harris
Vidder: OBFreak
Clips: Seasons 1 and 2
Character: Sheppard/McKay
Category: Friendship
Format: wmv
Size:12.9MB

I absolutely loved this song when I was a kid. ♥
I'd never have thought of it being used for a song vid but you've chosen such lovely clips & it's so sweet.
I have a big happy smile now - thank you! :-)
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 11th, 2006 07:05 am (UTC)
I must admit, I'm surprised I used this song too. Its not something I would usually do.
Thanks for watching, glad you liked it.

obfreak[info]obfreak on July 11th, 2006 07:11 am (UTC)

Oh bless! This was just adorable. I wasn't sure how on earth you were going to vid to it but it worked! It was just so cute. Like Bluespirit, I LOVED this song as a kid and used to play it over and over again so it was wonderful to see it made into a vid. And these two do behave like little boys a lot of the time *g*.
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 11th, 2006 07:30 am (UTC)
Thanks very much.
It's great to hear, that so many people like this song!
Im glad you liked the vid, thanks again :)

came over via a rec from bluespirit_star *g*

I'd never heard the song before, but LOVE what you did with it. Really nice interpretive clip choices, and I especially liked that little part where you took clips of Rodney & John from different eps & made them look like they were in the same scene (John being concerned when Rodney collapsed). I don't know what that's called, but thought you did it really well.
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 11th, 2006 08:32 am (UTC)
lol I have no idea what that is called either, but I'm glad to hear you liked it and that I managed to pull it off. Thanks very much

Hi! My name is Kyrieane, and I have a small SGA site, and I currently host a few vidders! http://www.sga.kyrieane.com/index.html If you are still looking for a place to host your vids, I'd be willing to host them. You can email me at kyrieane at yahoo dot com or ping me on YIM at the same.
darkhavens[info]darkhavens on July 10th, 2006 07:48 pm (UTC)

Now, off to watch the vid.

Awe this was adorable ;-) clicked over from [info]bluespirit_star's rec. Never heard the song before, but I loved it... the song & clips really fit for the two of them, and at times with a lovely bitter sweet sadness to it.
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 12th, 2006 03:12 pm (UTC)
Thanks, Im glad you liked it :)

Oh my! Although I'm not familiar with the song (as I noticed a few of your commenters were), I absolutley love this vid and the way you chose scenes to compliment the song. What a marvelous job! Thank-you so much. *g*

Anna *hugs*

(I hope you don't mind that, in my mind at least, there was a little more than friendship between them! Hee!)
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 12th, 2006 03:19 pm (UTC)
Yeah its surprising, half of the people seem to love the song, and the other half have never hear of it. Hehehe. Happy to hear you liked it. Thanks very much.

And hey lets bring on the slash!!!
darkhavens[info]darkhavens on July 10th, 2006 08:15 pm (UTC)
This is just adorable! As soon as I saw the song you'd chosen, I knew I'd have to come and check it out. It's just one of those songs that I love to hate and hate to love. And I love this vid!*g*

The other vid to this was made by elvichar, whose journal has since been deleted and purged. I just watched the two of them in perfect synchronisation, and, while you both used clips from the same scenes in different places in your vids, there was no overlap or even the possibility of impropriety - different clips, different timing, etc etc. ;)
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 12th, 2006 03:24 pm (UTC)
Yeah I know what you mean about the song. One minute I love it, the next it is driving me crazy. Strange thing.
Oh and thanks for clearing that up for me. I didn't want people thinking I was trying to copy or anything, so thats good to hear, Thanks!
And you actually like it too? Bonus! Thanks again for your comments. : )

Thanks.
Yeah there were quite a few clips I wanted to put in there, but found I didn't really have the room for them. That was definately one of them. Thanks for the suggestions though, always up for constructive critisiam. :D

Oh this is adorable. I loved the song when I was a kid and the clips are perfect for it. It really shines with friendship, loyalty, pranks and tenderness all at the same time
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 12th, 2006 03:37 pm (UTC)
Thankyou.
Its good to hear, I actually managed to pull it off. It was a tough song to put a video too. Thanks again, glad you liked it.

Derry: Rodney & John - Blue-Grey[info]derry667 on July 11th, 2006 05:15 am (UTC)
Gorgeous. Hilarious. Nostalgic (for me). Touching. Cute. And wonderfully apt for John & Rodney.

In case, I didn't make it perfectly clear, I absolutely LOVE this vid!

And you Aussie music vid kick has taken a "classical" turn. Good old Rolf! LOL!
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 12th, 2006 03:43 pm (UTC)
Hey Thanks! :)
Its great to hear you like it, and that I managed to pull the whole thing off.

lol *shrugs* hey I do what I can for our local talent. GO AUSSIE MUSIC!

Yay! Thanking you!
so8lue[info]so8lue on July 12th, 2006 02:07 am (UTC)
Okay, I remember hearing this song when I was younger, and it brought a tear to my eye. Now, with the video...I mean, it just fits. So perfect. The way the two (John, Rodney) interact: child's play, some angst, a little humor...

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so I did both. Great job.
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 12th, 2006 03:56 pm (UTC)
Thankyou very much. Im glad to hear I managed to show both the fun and often tense times between the two. Im glad you liked it.
Thanks for watching

hisluvpet: pissy_perfection[info]bistokidsfan77 on July 12th, 2006 07:38 pm (UTC)
Wonderful! I laughed & sniffed a little. Great clip choice and tranisitions. Good match to lyrics and pace was perfect. So very appropriate for John & Rodney, my OTP, but *fun* like they are. Thanks!
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 13th, 2006 01:28 pm (UTC)
Thanks very much.
Its great to hear that so many people enjoyed it.
Thanks for watching

Oooh, very nice! I loved the theme, and how you made the sonf into something so very fit for those two.
Do let me know when your other vids are available again online ;-)
[info]sechmet on July 16th, 2006 05:10 pm (UTC)
Expired :( I'd love to see it, could you upload it again, please?
obfreak[info]obfreak on July 18th, 2006 10:51 am (UTC)
With any luck it should be up and working now
