Does the subtitle timing is too fast? Or I *always* get distracted by the video instead of the subtitles??? :-?
That aside, what I love about the new style of promoting the new music videos is by releasing the artist single first (together with the lyric) to the audience first and then the official video later. Maybe this is to check what the masses think about beforehand or did they like (or dislike) the single?
Want my prove?
Train - Drive By.
(The single's video with lyric) Uploaded on Sunday, January 08th 2012.
With 4,640,953 views and 19,318 likes, 288 dislikes.
And later the official 'cinematic' music video without lyric~ (Uploaded on Wednesday, February 15th 2012).
Train - Drive By (Official Video).
With 1,758,137 views and 12,205 likes, 93 dislikes .
See? They took about more than one month to create the official video. With more than 4 million views this single won't have any problem to be a hit among the audience ;-)
And, to fix my lyric distraction I had printed the lyric from AZLyrics. Memorizing activities just can't be better this way, heehee X-D
Because the lyric given by that site wasn't in the greatest quality, this is the original proper lyric taken from the official Drive By video itself~~ :-)
Train - Drive By (Original Proper Lyric).
On the other side of a street I knew
Stood a girl that looked like you
I guess that's déjà vu
(but)
I thought this can't be true
'Cause
You moved to west LA or
New York or Santa Fe or
Wherever to get away from me
Oh but that one night
Was more than just right
I didn't leave you
'Cause I was all through
Oh I was overwhelmed
And frankly scared as hell
Because I really fell for you
Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
y-y-y-y
Just a shy guy
Looking for a two-ply
Hefty bag to hold my
I-I-I-I-I-I love
When you move me
Everything is groovy
They don't like it sue me
Mmm the way you do me
Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
y-y-y-y
On the other side of a downward spiral
My love for you went viral
And I loved you every mile
You drove away
But now here you are again
So
Let's skip the "how you been"
And
Get down to the "more than friends" at last
Oh but that one night
Is still the highlight
I didn't need you
Until I came to
And I was overwhelmed
And frankly scared as hell
Because I really fell for you
Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
y-y-y-y
Just a shy guy
Looking for a two-ply
Hefty bag to hold my
I-I-I-I-I-I love
When you move me
Everything is groovy
They don't like it sue me
Mmm the way you do me
Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
y-y-y-y
Please..... believe.....
That when..... I leave.....
There's nothing up my sleeve
But love.. for you...
And a little time to get my head together too
On the other side of a street I knew
Stood a girl that looked like you
I guess that's déjà vu
(but)
I thought this can't be true
(cause)
Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
y-y-y-y
Just a shy guy
Looking for a two-ply
Hefty bag to hold my
I-I-I-I-I-I love
When you move me
Everything is groovy
They don't like it sue me
Mmm the way you do me
Oh I swear to you
I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
y-y-y-y
Alright, that's all. Thank you thank you :-)
