pensiero8603 - Touched

[snacky]

There's something wrong with the way I'm searching YouTube, because some really good MM videos have not been coming up for me. Worse yet, the "suggested" videos that come up are always cluttered with fake episode ads rather than fan vids - grrr.

Anyyyyway, I had seen a vid by pensiero8603 before, but I didn't follow up because I didn't like that particular song. I should have dug a little deeper, because pensiero did several vids that I enjoy a great deal. This one is my favorite except for the flashing at the start. Again that might be personal taste - your mileage may vary.

I've watched this one a few times now, and my respect is really growing for the clip choices and cuts in this video.

At first I thought it was just because I liked the song. I was a little put off by the quick-cuts at the start, even though they go with the music. But there are some really nice visual choices in here as well as music that is bereft of twang (always a plus for me). I especially like how pensiero plays with time, speeding things up and slowing things down. It sort of reminds me of the book Einstein's Dreams (about how Einstein toyed with relativity in his imagination).

I'd put this in the top 5 in the shipper category. Other opinions?

Here are a couple of other pensiero vids from my Buzzfeed list. There are quite a few others on youtube, too. I thought these were the best (take my music prejudices into account, though).
