I love exactly three things in life:
1. Midnights by Taylor Swift (which is INCREDIBLE and anyone who says otherwise is lying to you);
2. Steve Harrington;
3. Making my friend Niamh cry.
I've been wanting to make a Steve video for a while, now, but I couldn't really find a song that felt right for what I wanted. And then Taylor Swift released THIS BANGER and my brain went whrrrrrrrrrrrr and popped this out in, like, three days.
I wanted to try and explore that sense of loneliness behind a lot of Steve's arc, how he's always had the title/the popularity/etc. but never people who actually cared about him until he found Dustin/Robin/the rest of the Party. That feeling of always being alone even in a crowded room. And then he finds his little family and suddenly he's /not/ alone anymore and I just! Ugh! I love Steve Harrington!! Ahhhh!!

This made it look like Steve is the main character in his own movie and I’m so here for it. And it captured his character development perfectly and I feel like it opened up a deeper side to his story.
Ahh thank you so much!!
He is still one of the most main characters of the show
wow, the way you captured his arc with the exact feelings of taylor's songs is incredible. i can't believe I almost cried watching this edit.
Thank you so much!! :) I think one of my favourite things about editing is experimenting with just how accurately I can parallel a video to the song-this was a particularly fun one to do!
@@MockingJamie it's one of my favourite parts too. To match the lyrics of the song while portraying the journey of a character is a delicate balance.
Awesome work
The character development that Steve went through during the show is just something very important to me. He is so amazing now, I hope he’ll be happy in the end of the show
Steve Harrington is such a comfort character for me and this edit is so beautifully done. From one editor to another this is literal art 😫✋️
Thank you so much!! ❤
Please send me this movie name bro
When Steve said “All the things they say that are important, it’s all just.. bullshit”, I COULD SEE HE WAS THINKING ABOUT NANCY
not to be dramatic, but this is everything I've ever needed. stunning rendition of Steve's inner journey
Wow. Okay. That blew me away. Steve is my favorite Stranger Things character, and this is my favorite song off of Midnights. You perfectly captured how the song not only flows and hits, but did it with a beautifully flawed character and his growth and the impact others have around him. Edits truly have such an ability to impact people, and the way you cut it, the scenes you used, the pacing, and overall flow was amazing. Thank you!!
AHH THANK YOU!! 😭💖
Was it necessary to destroy my heart like this???!? I can’t even handle pre movie ads and trailers without crying and I’m sobbing now. Great edit though like holy shit THE MONTAGE DURING THE INSTRUMENTAL?!!? WAS LITERALLY SCREAMING!!!! This edit was so big brain ashdhsjsh
THANK YOU SO MUCH I AM SO PROUD OF THAT MONTAGE!! I'm so glad you liked it!! 😭❤
So you really had to do this huh? I can’t stop weeping now!! This is so well done! Thank you for this
I did indeed 😌 Mwahaha. Thank you so much!!
i am actually so emotional watching this, steve brings me so much comfort that i can't even describe and probably my only comfort character who's alive (sad, i know) i will literally lose it if something happens to him. you captured his arc so beautifully, i am shook. this one's probably my most favorite steve harrington edit now, thank you so much
Omg never apologize for a long comment, I adore and appreciate long comments so much 😭❤ this is so kind thank you!! Also I, too, will lose my entire mind if anything happens so the Duffers better sleep with one eye OPEN if they hurt my boy
Oh my God I LOVEEE THIS! Seeing the “so make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it, you’ve got no reason to be afraid!” and the scenes of him with Dustin, Nancy, Robin and the entire gang that made him happy. That gave him purpose and meaning and made his life all round crazier yeah, but so much brighter !! After all the gloom, and even as the popular kid, high school sucked, people were fake and my guy went through a lot but he came out of it all so much stronger and *that* is what I love about Steve. Amazing video by the way, great editing, bestie ! ❤️🫶🏻🫶🏻
To put it into Will’s words:
I genuinely think that Steve is the heart of this show. Closely followed by Dustin and Eleven. He went through such an amazing personality growth and is the person who’s sort of looking out for everyone 🥲
honestly i love your editing so so damn much, you can edit anything and i’d cry about it for the next 10 months ! i love steve with a burning passion, this song fits him so well !!!! you’re doing god’s work !! thank you for this ❤️
AH THANK YOU!! ❤
@kibina97: Glad I’m not the only one crying!
🙏🏽💔🙏🏻😅
love him so much. best character on that show
holy fucking shit this was amazing!! I would have never thought this song would work for Steve but you made it happen!
Thank you!! ❤ Honestly I also didn’t make the connection at all until like a week after hearing it but once I did I was like !! I want to explore this!!
STOP I AM STILL WATCHING THIS AFTER A YEAR AND STILL LOVE THE FRIENDSHIP bracelets PART
Fantastic edit. Love the shots u chose at the start to talk about summer ending & u worked around lines like the "blood soaked gown." I love how much u focused on Steve's face at the end to express how he's changed. Also, dug the parallels u drew between Billy & Steve
I think it was actually the “blood-soaked gown” and the “blood, sweat and tears” lines that got me thinking of making this video in the first place! I’m glad they worked well in the end-putting those shots together was so much fun. Thank you!!
Ugh I love Steve and this really shows his character progression! I feel like it goes really well with Taylor’s song.
I've been watching this video like once a day for the past two weeks. It honestly is just so good. I dont tear up every time I watch it, but I do occasionally let a few tears slip. It's just crazy how this video perfectly encapsulates how I see Steve's character. I love this video. It has such a sad undertone to it. Like I think that's part of why I get emotional is that it feels like a goodbye to Steve like a tribute to a character who's not gonna make it out of the series alive
No he deserves to make it out of this alive, he literally has given his blood sweat and tears for this! Steve and Nancy for the win! I'm calling it!
I love how this shows emotionally what Steve’s been through in the earlier seasons
I think that’s the best video I’ve seen in a long time! Team Steve forever 😢
the way you captured everything perfectly omg
I heard this song for the first time and thought of Steve Harrington, my ultimate kin/comfort character. Steve and his arc are so personal to me, as is Taylor’s music and this song, and to see someone create imagery for all of the thoughts and feelings I carry in my head is so amazing. I cried because of this, but in a good way! Character study is my absolute favorite thing and this edit encapsulates every analysis I’ve done for Steve. I can’t even put into words how much this really means to me. I know it sounds dramatic, but it’s true.
(I’ve also watched your other ST edits, and my god you have a gift. Heather and Carolina are masterpieces as well).
Thank you for creating them ❤
That end quote for this video? Perfection!
loved this edit Steve is such an amazing character his development is of the best i've ever seen he is my favourite Stranger Things character, i relate with him in so many points
Please dont die in the next season, Steve. Im routing for him.
Also, excellent video. I watched it on repeat.
I never thought of pairing this song with Steve Harrington’s character, but this is an amazingly successful mashup! It shows how at this stage in his life, Steve is trying to figure out who he really is. He thinks that Nancy sees the real him (she calls him on his ruses, like smoking to look cool). When Nancy can’t say that she loves him, Steve loses the one person who he really opened up to; the person he most wanted love and acceptance from. We see the vulnerable, real person under Steve’s obvious facade as the handsome, popular “King of Hawkins High.”
Thank you! As soon as I heard this song I thought of Steve and just loved the video.
small thing but I really liked how Eddie Munson was the only person who hadn't actually pointed it out that he was a terrible person before 1984. Like he was the only person who actually talked about how surprised he was that Steve Harrington wasn't being a douche and was risking his life to help people who a few years earlier he probably hated the thought of. It shows how Steve grew as a a character and I'm super upset about how they through all of his development out of the window in season 4 making him fall for Nancy again.
This is a perfect representation of steve's evolution. In the beggining of the edit we see how he was a ashole but in the video, i don't know precisly when, he become the brave, badass and good guy that we all know. So yes, u did a very good job.
i knew a soon as i first heard this song that he would love it and this is just made so well. like i cannot express how perfect this is. the arc is shown so well and the emotion… AND WHAT HE SAYS AT THE END… ugh you deserve an award for best long edit
i watch this so often and i cried the first time 💔
this edit captures every beautiful part of Steve’s arc omg
He’s the real MVP, don’t care what anyone else says. You captured his essence perfectly.
I rarely comment on RUclips, but this may be my favorite piece of content EVER. This is my favorite song from Midnights, and Steve Harrington has become my favorite character. I am in awe of how well this is made. Thank you so much for sharing this!
😭❤️ Thank you!!!
This is hands down the best song edit on the internet.
This is so good, I'm shooketh!
Ahh thank you!!!
i can't stop watching this video, it captures his character so well, I never truly realized how lonely he is. This song and the way you edit brought it out to centre.
You also made me cry! This is the perfect song for Steve and it breaks my heart but then makes me cry in a good way when Steve gets the Party. This is so amazing
This is such a good edit because it matches like Steve arc and he’s like feelings I guess cause he doesn’t really show because he feels like you have to because big strong person with the Taylor Swift song, and a it can actually make you emotional I almost cried, watching this and I never cry watching edits and I think you’re just very good at that.
OKAY ARTISTE DAMN. you should know its subday morning and I didnt expect tears with my breakfast. like I dont move that easily, idk what happened. this is SO welledited, and I cant stress this enough because its expert levels of portarying an emotional arc and then also just punching you in the gut iwth the visuals. and not to be mean, but people almost never get the splicing audio with the main sing right, it can be so tricky. this? perfection. it flows tigether so well and elevates the other. aaah okay excuse me while I fall into this vid and no one hears from me again.
ohhhhh i feel SO normal and completely sane about how beautifully you’ve managed to map out/blend you’re on your own kid to his arc, like u reached into my brain and melded the idea into its most perfect form. i’m definitely NOT at all predicting that this will be playing on loop in my mind for months on end or anything 🙃
OH MY GODDD I never realized how well this song fit him?????
oh this is amazing
Steve's trauma is overlooked and underrated.
Sweetheart you know that is not true.
@@idontwantahandle651 In the show, I mean. He has been through so much and it's never talked about, you know?
@@ivyrose_writes ohhhh I thought you meant within the fandom.
@@idontwantahandle651 Lol it's all good
Damn honestly out of a lot of movies and tv shows I’ve seen he’s shown me a great example of who a great man can be. Thnx Steve.
This song has been making me think of Steve since it came out and you did the most incredible job with this edit I just sobbed for 5 minutes after watching this. Steve means so much to me and gosh just thank you for making this I know I'll be returning to it so often
My man! I love this. The song is perfect. Thank you!
Thank you!!
I think you pieced this together really well! You did a great job of having scenes from ST coincide with verses from "You're On Your Own, Kid". Overall, it was very cohesive. Nearly brought me to tears at certain points🙏
I almost cried watching this
i feel like our beloved steve harrington went through so much seen/unseen trauma. like we see him get pushed around a bit, but never fully put the pieces together. his dad's a jerk, probably pressured him to get good grades and play sports and stuff. then steve feels like he needs to keep up his "king harrington" reputation at school. he saves his adoptive children & his friends countless times & they hardly ever tell him thank you. he's never blown up about how they never do anything for him, how he doesn't really get anything in return, and so on. he just keeps protecting because i don't think he ever truly was & joe keery has a great way of portraying that. this edit made me cry (with my joe keery blanket) for finally bringing light to the shadowy side of this comedically relieving character we've all grown to know and love. to steve harrington 🥂
Not Steve going from my most hated to my favourite😂👀
Finally someone who captures the good side of steve harrington, nowadays he's so overhated just because he's still in love with nancy wheeler, or because he was bad in season 1, but people don't realize that he is a good guy he has done more positives then negatives, he's saved so many lives, he's been beaten up just so he could keep people safe, i love this video, it gave me goosebumps, i love that you made this, it really made my day, and by reading this you can probably see that he is my favorite character and i'm not ashamed of that, i'm proud of that, he's funny, good looking and he's had the best character development ever! ( sorry about the long paragraph )
Anyone who hates Steve Harrington is automatically my enemy tbh. I’m lucky to have mostly only heard about the sudden wave of Steve hate rather than actually seen it, but I have no idea where it came from nor do I think it makes any sense whatsoever. 🤷🏻♀️ Thank you for your comment, I appreciate it and I’m glad I brightened your day a little! ❤️
I literally got chills watching this omg
What a brilliant edit - thank you so much for sharing!
🙏🏽❤️🔥🙏🏻
I feel like Steve’s character reflects a lot on Taylor swifts songs yk such as this one, u belong with me, enchanted, champagne problems, etc.❤❤❤❤❤❤I love steve ❤❤❤
Damn this captures his character so well ❤❤❤❤ like perfectly
This is a masterclass in storytelling and editing.
Well done!!
Wait I wasn't expecting this to be so good omg now I have to watch stranger things again 😭❤
It’s the way my jaw dropped like ong I didn’t even mean for it to?? Amazing edit- you should be proud of urself!!!
I've watched so many of the "You're on your own, kid" edits for characters and this one is by far - not only the most emotional- but the best edited I've seen. Every lyric lines up perfectly with the scene and the lines from the show you chose to un-mute just beautifully represent how this song could be interpreted for various situations and emotions. Well done😊.
😭❤️😭❤️ Thank you so much that’s so kind of you!!
I think I'm addicted to your edit😅 I keep coming back to watch it and I know it by heart omg. You're very talented
This is so good, I have been waiting for someone to do this with a song from midnights! Your amazing!
I've come back to rewatch this video at least four times, it's just perfect.
His character did a 180 in season 2 and i loved it.
Edit: I don't know why this made me cry.
This is legitimately the best Steve Harrington edit I’ve ever seen holy crap good job ❤
The way he became my most hated character in S1 to the most loving character by fans (including me lol) in S4. ❤️
His character development was so amazing i can't express in words.
Woah. I didnt expect this to fit him so damn well
This is one of the first characters in a show in so long that I have gravitated towards and just identify with so hard. Hos whole character arc is just so relatable to my life! ❤️❤️ This man better get his happy ending!! He more than deserves this!
Just needed to take a minute to appreciate this EDITING but it honestly wasn’t enough! This edit is superior in so many levels.. as someone who likes to edit and aspires to edit like this someday I really appreciate people like you!!! The matching of the lyrics, effects, pace, scenes-it was absolutely p e r f e c t i o n and on point❤
I was thinking of this song for him! Glad I'm not the only one.
It works so well!!
i keep coming back to this edit because it's so incredible. you captured steve so well!
My fav series with my fav celeb’s song!
i love him so much
stranger things to taylor swift songs = perfection.
Oh god and now I’m crying
It's videos like this that really make me want to watch Stranger Things one day even though I haven't gotten around to it the whole time it was currently releasing new seasons. What an AMAZING and powerful edit. Most people are doing multi-fandoms to this song and I love how powerful it is for you to make this song work for one character, even one I don't know, and I can still appreciate so so much about this.
Thank you so much!!! ❤ I actually find multi-fandoms SO HARD to edit so I admire everyone doing those with this song. I can barely keep track of all the scenes for one show let alone like ten at a time lmao. Also would definitely recommend watching Stranger Things if/when you get the chance! It's a very compelling show and a good time. Also Steve is the best.
i remember being FURIOUS that he surivied the first season and now he's my favourite character
I Love this
This made him one of my comfort characters again
This is one of the best character development arcs second only to Vinland saga for me
oh my god 🫠🫠🫠🫠 the way im screaming crying shaking rn…and the fact that you’ve written on of my favorite steddie fics ever??? screaming
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! 💗😭 I'm so happy to hear you liked my fic that much too!
@@MockingJamie yesss i know what you want from me stays permanently etched into my brain 🩷🙏🏽
I almost cried watching this. You just made one of the greatest edits I've ever seen. Steve is a love, and you captured his arc incrediby. I love this so much
i love him so much. he's my comfort character. the way he's evolved is amazing and so crazy. they really were gonna kill him off in S1 but kept him... so glad..
that's my man🤙🤙
Such a great video!!!
Thank you!!
this is incredible!!
This edit made me emotional. You captured his character arc so well throughout the lyrics of the song. I love this so much! Thank you!
Edit: the part of the song talking about dreaming to get out of “this town” just like Steve talks about getting out of Hawkins. Perfection! I’m a Swiftie and Steve fan so this is such a perfect edit.
I am crying rn, God. I love it! Great job ...also I want to hug steve harrington and never let him go
I watch this so often and it makes me cry every time
I can't stop watching this. So relatable with my fav song off of Midnights. It touches my soul. Thank you for this.
This is the most beautiful edit I have ever seen. I am literally in tears ❤❤
I love this so much!!!
Thank you so much for making this! This is so beautiful!! I've been waiting for someone to make an edit of Steve with this song :"D
omg this destroyed me! crying!! the way I ache for Steve! this was so perfect!
I love this , this is beautiful .❤
this is absolutely gorgeous and im sitting here in tears bc i love steve so much and you showed his arc and how it parallels w the song so well oh my god, thank you for this
Oh my gosh… this is so perfect for steve
The best character on the show
I hated him when in the first season, but now he's my favourite character.
i can’t even explain in words how perfect this is. the lyrics matched up with the scenes so well, you are a genius and i love you!!! best character in stranger things 🤍
