Here's a video that on first glance looks pretty bad quality. Ok, second glance too, but the original was so much worse. The harsh lighting created glare on her face, there were tons of drop-outs, and the camera shake was barf-inducing. k8_fan took out the color to soften the lighting, softened the video to take out the drop-outs, and added a bit of a surreal effect to make the camera shaking less jarring. Really, if you saw the original, this looks MUCH better.

It's an AMAZING cover too. I think if you really look at it and concentrate, it gets downright hypnotic.

In my opinion anyway. I hope others see it that way.

just awesome !!! superior

Imagine my surprise when I got an email saying this had been promoted! What prompted it deathcow?

Damn, not to kick a gifthorse in the face, but I wish this old black and white version could be replaced with the color version. It looks and sounds a LOT better! Seriously.
