That was just gorgeous - the music and the clips were so beautifully woven together. I have to use the word flow again, same as everyone else, because it really does flow beautifully. There's just so much there - the wonder of discovery with its attendant danger, triumph, loss, (more danger!), their developing interconnectedness with each other and with the city. And the city is a character! I love it when that shines through. Elizabeth firmly at the center of it all, with Atlantis, as everything whirls around (events of the show, and the movement/music of the vid) - perfect.
It's so rich, that I feel like I shouldn't even start to pick out specific moments, but... the part with John coming home as Elizabeth comes down the stairs, and then the cut to John in the same place, looking around for the first time, and then back to Elizabeth with the "welcome home" hug - is lovely (and transcends any shippiness) - Atlantis from strange new place... to home. And then the second to last shot of Other Elizabeth as she's looking around after shutting down the city so that she can try to save them all and allow for everything that we just saw to play out. Yeah. That was fabulous.
OK, I should stop babbling now. Loved it. Thanks for sharing!
