@@SamHarrisonMusic nope, they just got the makeup and vibes spot on. Brian has curly hair and Amanda has a different face structure so they can't be (also, if the makers are dresden dolls fans, you bet they would never shut up about meeting them). Great piece of art
@@SmallAndInconvenientyeah, the woman doesnt look much like amanda but the guy? I was kinda stumped but soon noticed the hair and slight difference in face structure
This is one of those songs where its like: hey, that's a great song. Yea, what's it about? Not a fucking clue. Maybe the music video will shed light on the question. Oh dear.
I've listened to the Dresden Dolls since I first saw "Girl Anachronism" on Time-Warner Cable in high school but it wasn't until I was 35 that this song finally clicked with me and made me both cry and feel hopeful at the same time. Thank you, the Dresden Dolls!
This is one of the best examples of a song that's more about tone than the words. The words are just a rough guidepost where its going, imo. It's all about frustration and sorrow at being yourself, inside the limits of what you are, no matter how you console yourself with your rationalizations and hopes. And the only things that makes it tolerable is the external influence that keeps yanking you out of the maze of your weaknesses from time to time. (a blessing evoking ambivalence within)
I first watched this video in 2009 when I was in primary school, I showed it to teachers and everything, and its still one of my all time favourite music videos. I still to this day 12 years later can't believe its fan made.
@@FelipeChiaramonte honestly 10 year old me had such a love for this video and loving the girl fighting the world with art and colour and 22 year old art student me still feels exactly the same way. 💕
hey! for many that has asked this is a fan video, brian and amanda saw it. she comment by email she liked it and brian commented by email and on youtube comments about it too. i couldnt find it,.but i can try later, this was filmed in são paulo by fans of that organized to make it by a community on orkut (like facebook but more popular in brazil)
This video always leaves me speechless, it's one of those most beautiful, perfect pieces of film, that works so beautifully with the song. It gave the song new, a new, deeper meaning, for me. It never ceases to amaze me, just as Amanda and Brian do with the poetry they create in their music.
Amazing! Brilliant story. So refreshing to see someone not worry about following lyrics exactly and creating such a brilliant emotional atmosphere to go with the song. Fantastic work.
i love this song... this ''fanmade'' video is better than a lot of ''real'' ones ... i watch and listen to this at least once a month... it makes me love life.
This video was released on 2008 by a fanmade which happens to be a time traveller too, who would've thought it was recorded while covid was a thing? so crazy
This is absolutely fantastic! Well shot, full of colours, made with love and invention. Student films are always the best!!! Five stars withnout doubt! I hope the DD saw this!
I love the dresden dolls and amanda palmer, yet, this has got to be the best music video i've ever seen........... i mean, i love the message, and just, the overall rebellion over the greyscale. all the color she has added into the world and her refusal to submit, running from it all. it is amazing. :DDDDDD
wow..dude..it's like the 15th time i watch this video..in the past 3 months...and only now i had the curiosity to read the description..dude,i was convinced that this was the song's original video...GOOD JOB!!!
I would suggest actually sending Amanda this video, they have a section on their site for fan videos, and It think this should be the crown jewel of the collection. Very beautifully done, and I must say Charles, who played Brian, is pretty good looking~
shiiiiwwoooow! my god!! i actually didn't read that this was fan made until i finished watching this.. i had no idea (since i've never seen the original video)! but wow! amazing job! well done!
Wonderful job on both the filming, and the costumes, and excellent choice for a song to accompany the video, all in all if I could still give five stars, I would, but thumbs up.
this is just gorgeous. i wish i was in it,it feels like if you are watching it you are in it....like more than a lot of films i have seen in recent times.
Stunning! Absolutely beautiful, amazing, well-done. I`m a huge fan of this video and people who made it. This is it, this is the essence of The Dresden Dolls.
Im hooked ....this is really nice....it sunk into my skin so sweetly.. really wonder~full song...and very nice work on the video... a most exquisitely delight~full execution ...I love it
Wow this is a deep song and Video and it really moves me to feeling the sway of emotions and tears in the pit of my stomach. Wow it was incredible and I do agree that that reposting down there was the best comment and captured the truth about the video.
wow this is absolutely incredible- the most beautiful and moving fan video i've ever seen! Huge round of applause to everyone, and if I were Amanda I would be extremely proud of the people who made this.
OMG ! This is the BEST VIDEO made by Fans ! I didn't know that !, I read the description and I read the part that says : " This is the result of crazy DD fans and cinema students from Brazil teaming up to make a colorful music video. Enjoy! " And i was like ARE YOU KIDDING ME !? I LOVE YOUR VIDEO ! I'M YOUR FAN !
Man, I really love that scene when the guy removes his mask to show his teeth. It goes so well with the tone "I fought the British and... I WON". It gives me goosebumps.
Wasn't going to comment, but I love this tune. It is a pointed rebuke of the British govt "The sun still sets on you" directly contradicts the old trope "the sun never sets on the British Empire "
The song is amazing and this video to the song is absolutely awesome! It's hard to believe, that it's actually a fan-made video! Could hear it over and over again! :D
My my!! Tis is excellent. I thought it was a real music video. The camera work is absolutely wonderful, and it's very Dreden Dolls-esque in style. Such an interesting story this video tells! Beautifully done.
i didnt read the info and i thought that it was the offical vidio. its so well made. it is acctually better than quite a few actual studio made music vids.
Wow this is really good i like the bit where Brian finds the little paint brush with green on it and the bit where he catches amanda when she's falling at the end. i looks a lot like the real dresden dolls. well done
Lovely! You understood the whole universe that DD is sharing with it's music... Could be the officiel video. Congratz. I love it!! Continue this great work. :)
Love the song and a very very good video. Also: very good concept. Something people may forget, it's not all about images but also about the idea behind it :-)
I had no idea this was fanmade until I saw the description box. this was amazing!
Makayla Mapu no friends ever.by myself.e eryday no.la.the likes dead silver tiles.dead never a man.do t like my audience..
Me too! Isnt it the band starring?
@@SamHarrisonMusic nope, they just got the makeup and vibes spot on. Brian has curly hair and Amanda has a different face structure so they can't be (also, if the makers are dresden dolls fans, you bet they would never shut up about meeting them). Great piece of art

I mean at the thumbnail, in the video it definitely doesnt look like brian
This is one of those songs where its like: hey, that's a great song. Yea, what's it about? Not a fucking clue. Maybe the music video will shed light on the question. Oh dear.
I think Dresden Dolls should be very proud bcs you made amazing video to their amazing song
I've listened to the Dresden Dolls since I first saw "Girl Anachronism" on Time-Warner Cable in high school but it wasn't until I was 35 that this song finally clicked with me and made me both cry and feel hopeful at the same time.
Thank you, the Dresden Dolls!
After 9 years I could say that half of the views of this videos are mine. 9 years that I'm watching it, time goes fast.
😁😁😄😄🤣🤣🤣🤣....😏😏😏😏😏😏 the other half are mine😄🤣😄🤣.

Why could I not have heard them back then, they are my musical perfection ❤️
They still do rare one off concerts. I think Amanda's Patreon sponsors get first pick of tix.
I first watched this video in 2009 when I was in primary school, I showed it to teachers and everything, and its still one of my all time favourite music videos. I still to this day 12 years later can't believe its fan made.
This warms my heart. 💙

Blew me away... I'm not even sure if it's possible to have a better video than that... I'm sooooo impressed.

This is a really gorgeous portrayal of this song. It's one of my favorite DD songs and this video is so well thought out and executed. Love it.
Amazing! Brilliant story. So refreshing to see someone not worry about following lyrics exactly and creating such a brilliant emotional atmosphere to go with the song. Fantastic work.
i love this song...

very very well done... quite impressed - i especially liked the way the video became progressively more black and white with dashes of color
OMG !
This is the BEST VIDEO made by Fans !

Man, I really love that scene when the guy removes his mask to show his teeth. It goes so well with the tone "I fought the British and... I WON".
It gives me goosebumps.
Why commented last time so long time ago?
Amazing lyrics, very interesting melody line. Truly unique.
Wow. This is an amazing music video! (and song) I would probably be the girl with the backpack out to paint the town. :)
Wasn't going to comment, but
I love this tune.
It is a pointed rebuke of the British govt
"The sun still sets on you" directly contradicts the old trope "the sun never sets on the British Empire "
The song is amazing and this video to the song is absolutely awesome! It's hard to believe, that it's actually a fan-made video!

This is one of my favorite music videos of all time, I don't care if it's unofficial. And really I don't think it matters. Good work.
I usually think fan videos are a bit weak...but this one is really good. Well made, clever ideas and great execution.
what a masterpiece of a song.....SO SAY WHAT U WILL I AM THE KILL
I love everyone involved in this dearly.
It's so cool.
The best fan made video I have eveer seen! I hope Amanda and Brian have seen this.

My my!! Tis is excellent. I thought it was a real music video. The camera work is absolutely wonderful, and it's very Dreden Dolls-esque in style. Such an interesting story this video tells!
Beautifully done.
That was really fantastic man. Reminded me a lot of the Funeral for a Friend trilogy videos with the inivisbile weaponry.
i didnt read the info and i thought that it was the offical vidio. its so well made. it is acctually better than quite a few actual studio made music vids.
This video is amazing and so is the song.
Also, I'm in love with her outfit and I don't know why.
Beautiful video, I even love the shaking shots taken on the run. Damn good job, people.
Wow

i like the bit where Brian finds the little paint brush with green on it and the bit where he catches amanda when she's falling at the end.

Exquisit. Stunning performance and amazing photography.
Congratulations :)
