Eric, this is so great.  MWA!  I love "Coyotes."  And as others have said, you found songs new to me and already beloved to me that fit so well.  Little did I know when I listened to "Behind Blue Eyes" three billion times in my youth that it would mean Jack Twist to me one day.  Same for "Without You," one of my favorite songs growing up.

And Milli, Milli, Milli, whoo-ee!  That is some seriously high-class entertainment.  Ravishing.  Thank you so much.

I wasn't able to experience this as intended but just looking through the slides is fantastic - a lot of the created pics and artwork is new to me, and stunning. I will still check out the slides in combination with the music when a new song comes on.  Thank you to everyone involved, what a novel concept and so well done.  You really did the story proud.  Your hard work is more than appreciated.  I can hardly believe how cool it is, another way to experience BBM!  :)  :)  :)

That was wonderful Eric.

I just followed the last bit for the second time. Thank you for repeating it once more for us Euros and Aussies. I was able to catch most of it.

You did some awesome work here. The pics matched so well with the songs and the lyrics. I discovered a few songs in a whole new way (Behind Blue Eyes, Everything I Own; never paid attention to the lyrics before and since English is not my native language, I don't have a clue what a song is about unless I listen to it, not only hear it).
And I discovered a few new songs here that I like (Tim MCGraw for example).

I second what nic said, it really is another way to experience BBM. I gave up fighting the tears somewhere along the way...

A big, big Thank You! to you and Milli.

Dear Eric,

I missed the music here in Oz but have just been through the amazing pics, fighting back tears along the way. Congratulations to you on this wonderful thread. Congratulations too, to Lucise, for your beautiful graphics. You got me good, Lucise!

Much love,

Kerry

Thank you so much, Eric, especially for "Coyotes" and "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" (which was written by Neil Young).

And thank you so much, Lucise!!

Thank you so much for this outstanding presentation.  On the occasion of our first anniversary forthcoming, perhaps we can find a way to recreate the experience for users in a downloadable presentation available for a limited time.  We'll see what can be done.

Such beauty, all.  Thank you, thank you.  A thousand times, thank you.

This is my favorite (of a gallery of favorites):



THIS is Jack Twist.  The very essence of trying - trying to be everything he isn't (all the while not realizing that he already is more than most people).  The colors he wears are the colors of this movie.  Tan = Love.  Red = Compromise.  Blue and Black = One's True Self.

No more beans!

I agree with you, Barb. I chose this picture to illustrate the Virginian discussion I am having on Anything Goes.

The Wonderful Baycityjohn is workin' hard putting the slideshow to video, as an actual slideshow!  :D :D :D

Here's a sneak peek:  http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3518365797160919289

(Be sure to watch it all the way to the end.  :'( )


We are gonna add a few more pictures to the shows.  If you have any pictures you think should be added to the show for certain songs, upload them to photobucket and feel free to PM me with the link.  :D


Thank you Baycityjohn, for all your hard work with this.  You got no idea how much it's appreciated.  :)
