Smile - The Supernaturals

Every silver
lining has a cloud
And each piece of good fortune
must be paid for by the pound
I've become so cynical these days,
I don't know how it started but it won't go away
See the lines around my eyes,
See the sarcasm in my smile,

You'd better smile
Smile [x15]
Cause that's all that you've got left,
Your life's a mess, you've been cut adrift

You'd better smile [x2]
I feel like a dalek inside,
Everything's gone grey but used to be so black and white
See the lines around my eyes,
See the sarcasm in my smile,

You'd better smile
Smile [x15]
I've become so cynical these days,
I don't know how it started but it won't go away
You'd better smile [x2]
Cause that's all that you've got left,
Your life's a mess, you've been cut adrift



Feedback loved.

I'm having a bad day today, but that just put a HUGE smile on my face. THANK YOU :)

I really must rewatch Buffy. Also, I can't help but go "Uther!" every time I see Giles now *facepalm*

I guess that's the point of More Joy Day, I'm glad the vid was able to brighten your day a little.

And I always see Uther and go "Giles" :D

I remember this video from way back when you first made it. I think I actually still have it on my hard disc. The updated version is awesome. It feels like the same vid, only with better quality clips and a greater variation in them. I truly enjoyed it. Thanks!

I definitely wanted it to have the same feel as the original. For the most part it was just about improving the quality of the source and tightening the editing a bit. Glad you liked it.

I love this vid! I still have the old version, and it's on my list to watch whenever I feel gloomy. Always helps.

The new one is fantastic. 'Watchers not watching' should be a sitcom.

Thank you! "Watchers not Watching" would be a great sitcom kind of like "The Odd Couple" meets "Absolutely Fabulous".

Aww, this is so cute and fun. I love the clip interaction and the great mix of season and series. I'm smiling right now. You can't see it, but I'm totally grinning like a child, especially at the boobs part. I'm a 13-year-old boy that thinks BEWBS ARE KEWL. I love the moment at :57 with Riley on beat. I was happy to see so many characters. Love Anya's twirly finger to Buffy.

Happy More Joy Day!

Happy Joy Day. I'm glad the vid made you smile. You weren't the one who went scouring the source for boobs clips, I fail at maturity.

Thank you. I couldn't believe it had been nearly 5 years since I made the original of this. That's like about 3 decades in vidding years.

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I tried to get as many people in as possible but I think my personal preference for Giles, early Wes and Angel being a dork has rather tipped the balance.
