Hey... I was kind of depressed about both TheITinFIT and TonyWDA losing their first YouTube channels. I mean... wow. The truth of that happening was out of nowhere, just like Michael Jackson's death over a year ago. I must admit, the suspensions of their accounts has really left me truly heartbroken.

Anyways, I made this video as a dedication to not only Jen and Tony, but also those who are heartbroken by the recent news. The funny thing about the song in this video, I listened to it on my iPod to help myself feel better, and then I figured, why not make a video with the song? 

BTW, ironically, I was watching this movie called 'Chaplin' in my Comedy class last week before we got let out for Spring Break, which was the story of one of history's greatest actors, Charlie Chaplin, who originally wrote this song. Plus, this is also the favorite song of the guy singing this version; Michael Jackson. 

As for my favorite part of this video, it would have to be the instrumental break around 2:59-3:24, because of how it has that feeling of nostalgia (Ironically, the clips in that short montage come from movie that scream nostalgia to me.) of the good old days. Plus, to me, it's practically a shoutout to Charlie Chaplin that I made by complete accident when making this video. 

Plus, the piano bit at the end with the 101 Dalmatians clips in black and white are also a shoutout to Charlie Chaplin and his days in black and white cinema. :)

What's more, I did my best to match the clips up perfectly to match the lyrics in the song. I hope you like that bit and the former two moments mentioned. 

Disclaimer: I own nothing in this video. It's only for fun and the hope of cheering up some good friends.

PS, that person smiling between the Lilo & Stitch 2 clip and the 101 Dalmatians clip is yours truly. ;)
