/me peeps cautiously in...

Lots of trepidation about posting this, but I'm going ahead anyway. I've thought that this song was so Lois ever since I heard it again out of the blue last summer.

Always A Woman To Me by Billy Joel. This version is Windows Media Player.

Comments, even rotten tomatoes (ick! razz ) welcome!

Wonderful, Wendy!

Have always loved that song and always felt it would make a perfect L & C video - the lyrics get at what Clark feels for Lois so well - that he's both smitten and yet also aware of her complexity. Loved that you chose mostly S1 clips. We see so clearly Lois's feelings for Clark in those clips, too.

AND ... there's even a clip of Henderson in there. clap

Oooh. Extremely well done, Wendy. smile The clips were very well chosen, very much in sync with the lyrics. I particularly love the dancing bits that are actually in the beat of the song. Brilliant!

MORE!

Yes, this is a lovely song, Wendy - at last, we've found something we can agree on, musically-speaking. laugh It's so fitting for Lois, too, and I shall forgive you for choosing only S1 and S2 clips. wink

My favourite bit was the timing of "she only reveals what she wants to reveal" (or whatever the lyric is) with her closing the curtains. That, and the thief bit. (LOL!)

Well, as a big Billy Joel fan, I've been waiting impatiently to find time to view this. And wow! <snuffle> Beautiful.

Loved her running the little guy into the wall. <g> And all the other bits everyone else has already mentioned. Inspired choices!

Wonderful. clap clap

What's more to say than the previous feedback? Probably nothing but I repeat it anyway wink

Those scenes seem very in tune with the lyrics, the focus of them is clearly on Lois and what I see is a vibrant and fun-loving person.

It's a true enjoyment, thanks for this video! wave

Wow! Thank you all so much!! blush

I'm stunned and delighted at the feedback to this. Although I've worked with Kae on ideas for trailers before, I've never done any of the techie work in creating a music video or trailer, and I'm so pleased that you like the results. Thanks for picking out some of the image/lyric matches I was particularly proud of!

Oh, and Carol, I hail you:
