My Soul's Not the Same

[Shadow]

A Mick video, with a new song from Hungry Lucy called "Simone."
This very unusual, emotional song brought to mind the barriers that Mick sees between himself and Beth.

Oh this is haunting, Shadow - there's a real sense of Mick's isolation.

Fabulous ending, too.

Oooooh... powerful! Brilliant use of b/w vs color. Hauntingly beautiful. You are so incredibly talented! this and I know I'll watch it again (and again)

A great haunting song choice for Mick. Love the b/w and the scenes you chose.

Wow, Shadow, this vid packs a power punch. The isolation, the loneliness...the intense desire to be a part of humanity, only to realize that is long lost...wow.

Haunting and sad. The kisses are there, Beth is reaching out, but Mick remains solitary, withdrawing, withdrawn. The ending made me jump. Wonderful, moody vid.

Shadow, you are such an artist. I loved this video...the black and white and sparing splashes of color, the use of negative images, the wonderful song-- It gives me chills and makes me want to cry, all at the same time. This video goes perfectly with your "In Between" stories... the push-pull dynamic between Mick and Beth, the gulf that separates them, the yearning for each other that tries to span that gulf. I'm awestruck--again. Please, never stop making videos...

Absolutely stunning, Shadow.

Each and every one of your vids is always a joy. You have an amazing connection to Mick and you always, always hihglight him perfectly.

Wow

Shadow, this is mesmerizing and hypnotic.

The pull between them is so very strongly present, but the differences are there, too.

A wonderful example of synergy, where elements combine to produce something with impact greater than the sum of what made it up.

Thanks, Shadow

Beautiful, haunting, sad.....
Tortured Mick is very sexy, though!
I know it's shallow, but there you go.
You are a clever, clever girl!

WOW! This is breathtakingly beautiful and haunting. I absolutely love the song.

Thanks Red, and bless you for mentioning the ending! (Spent two weeks trying to get that last five seconds to come out right .... )

Oh, thanks so much, Susie. That is great you'll want to watch it over again! I imagined this in the black and white with just hints of color from the first time I heard the song, I'm really glad that worked.

I really got fascinated by this song ... the lyrics are not something you will hear every day! Thanks, francis.

The song had so much of that in it ... it was pretty easy to get that mood into the video. Thank you so much, woll!
