Umineko AMV - It's all a (happy) Lie

A music video I made for the Umineko visual novel, using various animated media (although not the anime itself) to the song "Kill the Lights", by The Birthday Massacre. Enjoy.
Made using Sony Vegas, 2013

One of my favourite songs with my favourite fiction

I come back to this video every now and then. It's very well made!

Thank you!

I'm genuinely astounded by how well the lyrics fit the story of Umineko. I did a double take when I heard "After midnight we're all the same".
Awesome video!

This might just be the best umineko AMV. Not only it has very nice song and flow, but it conveys the story perfectly.
Great job man!

Might as well
Lyrics:
This story's missing a wishing well
No mirror to show and tell
No kiss that can break the spell
I'm falling asleep
Every prince is a fantasy
The witch is inside of me
Her poison will wash away the memory
We kill the lights and put on a show
It's all a lie
But you'd never know
The star will shine
And then it will fall
And you will forget it all
And after midnight we're all the same
No glass shoe to bring us fame
Nobody to take the blame
We're falling apart
Every story's a waiting game
A flower for every name
Their colors are paling
In the falling rain
We kill the lights and put on a show
It's all a lie
But you'd never know
The star will shine
And then it will fall
And you will forget it all
Now you know
It's so much better to pretend
There's something waiting for you here
Every letter that you wrote
Has found its way to me, my dear
You can make believe that what you say
Is what I want to hear
I'll keep dancing through this
Beautiful delusional career
Faking every tear
Looking like a compromise suicide
Keeping all my dreams alive

Just finished umineko about 3 days ago
Truly an outstanding story that brought me to tears about 3 or 4 times, maybe more. But for some reason i needed to find a AMV just to finish the mood.
I come upon this video and, boy does this hurt. This song and the cruel reality of umineko hit extremely hard, especially the line of
"Its all a lie, but youd never know"
Just hits me deep in the feels
I will never forget such a masterpiece, backed by this outstanding AMV youve produced
Thank you.

[@FarWanderer81]

I'm glad you liked it.
And congratulations on completing Umineko! I finished it many years ago and still think about it all the time. It really is life-changing.

[@nicothekenji]

i'm still shocked with how accurately this song fits with umineko, crazy to think it's a coincidence the matching of the lyrics with the story

[@slavasidorenko2549]

best umineko amv :)

[@FarWanderer81]

Thank you :)

[@muscleelf2363]

This is so good, I tear up a little every time I watch it. It really takes me back to how I felt on my first playthrough.

[@hippomantube]

Still gold.

Isn't this a duplicate of your other video? Still a very nice AMV nonetheless.
