In celebration of psychodragon82 finally watching Esca (aka the best anime ever until FMA)...

A Vid Rec List for The Vision of Escaflowne

1. Believe in Me
song: Tonight, Tonight
artist:The Smashing Pumpkins
spoilers: episode 26
comments: So very very pretty. It's my favorite Esca video. And what a wonderful, soaring song to go with a wonderful, soaring anime.


2. I Just Can't Wait to be King
song: I Just Can't Wait to be King
artist: Disney, The Lion King OST
spoilers: er...early/middlish of the anime. No major plot points spoiled.
comments: Van, Van, Van...someone needs to give that boy a whap to the head with a walking stick.

3. Devotion
song: #1 Crush
artist: Garbage
spoilers: episode 26
comments: I swear, you could make 3 bajillion romance vids for this show, and it'd NEVER get dull. This is a very, very good one. As are the others I will be mentioning. But this one has that really cool song.

4. Gunning Down Romance
song: Gunning Down Romance
artist: Savage Garden
spoilers: episode 26
comments: It's angst. Live it, breathe it, romanticize it.

5. Glory of Love
song: Glory of Love
artist: Peter Cetera
spoilers: episode 26
comments: This is one of the top 10% downloaded videos on AMV.org. Because it's perfect. I mean, it's disgusting how perfect this video is. Although, the Tonight Tonight video mentioned above (by the same vidder) is my personal favorite.

side note: supposedly this song is by Peter Cetera, but I could have sworn it was by Chicago. Unless Peter Cetera is the lead singer of Chicago? Who knows. EDIT: Turns out he is.


mock movie trailers:

6. Escadune
movie: Dune
spoilers: episode 26
comments: Surprisingly good choice for an Esca trailer. Really goes with the whole mythic quality of the show.

7. Escaflowne: Zone of Absolute Fortune
movie: The Mummy Returns
spoilers: I'm just gonna say episode 26 to be safe, though it's vague on actual events.
comments: War sucks.



NOTE: For a few other good videos, check out the extras on the first Escaflowne DVD; you'll find 3 music videos to music from the series; my favorite is "Into The Light". All are spoilery.
