This AMV should not exist. The fact that it does is by pure chance and maybe the constellation of the stars. I found this song when i was searching for another. I started this AMV right after i finished Cold And Bloody. Mainly because i thought "why not". The video name is an homage to Phade's Material Girl - a AMV that I love and treasure. Enjoy!

Author's comment: I was interested in Ishida Hiroyasu's works since the day I randomly found Fumiko no Kokuhaku on YouTube, so naturally when I saw the PV for Hinata no Aoshigure back in 2013 I was pretty hyped. But then it was shown in cinemas in Japan and never had any other kind of release. Until yesterday, when it was aired on Fuji TV. I knew about it beforehand so I got a cap set up so I could finally watch it, and it surpassed my expectations. I really loved what I saw, so I knew I wanted to make an AMV to it, and Coldplay's Speed of Sound naturally came to mind as a perfect fit (so perfect I think it might be jarring for some viewers). There's not much else to say, I really enjoyed editing this video, and for once I just made it because I wanted to, not for some contest or whatever.

Author's comment: I heard this song this past summer and knew I wanted to make an AMV with it, specifically for Sakura-con because (hurray!) I actually was in attendance this year! If you get the song stuck in your head, I take no responsibility.

Fourth fun project organised by the German AMV-Community. This time we decided to make a slapstick theme with some lyric synch. Every editor added an 1-10 sec part knowing only the previous part (except Shui - he edited 1/3 of the video). We hope you can enjoy it. ;)
