I'd Rather Be Different

CONTAINS SPOILERS!!!

Using the Glee cover of "Defying Gravity", mostly because that one doesn't refer to characters, Tabbi started this shortly after we saw the movie. Then halfway through editing, we found the video Ditto made. Ditto, she congratulates you for using a song about three times longer than the cover.

She also found it heartwrenching to edit the scene where Hiccup is knocked to the ground and disowned, because we both nearly cried over that scene. But the AMV was a way for Tabbi to work in everything she loved about HTTYD, so it had to be done.

I don't have much to say about the video other than I think it's cute, and Tabbi would be very happy to know what you're thoughts are. If you have a youtube account, you can also leave a comment on the original video.

Wow... I don't even like this cover and I started tearing up watching it. *goes to comment on video*

It seems like a very good concept and everything considering the lyrics of the song. Also a very well made video, smooth transitions and such.

But personally, gotta say, not my favourite video. The singer's voice is annoying and it's just very distracting.

But still a good vid overall.

Yeah, the singing is very... pop. I have a soft spot for this version (though the Broadway version is superior) but I understand how you feel.

I'll be sure to pass the comments along.

Sorry for bringing this post back to life from the second page, but I just had to...

Because I kept having this video playing at least five times a day for a week, and couldn't help but saying Thank You!

It is, don't know if I may say "the best", but at least my favourite HTTYD AMV so far. <3

I didn't even know this video was on the forum! I love this video; I set it as my top favorite on my YouTube page actually. XD

And... I like the song. A lot. I think the singer has a nice voice (except at the end, when she goes up to hit those high notes...) but I really like the song and the video. *differently different girl right here, whoo!*
