LOVE. As always with you vidding River, I love the mix of epic with tragedy. Though I rather love that it seems like River is the one always saying goodbye, I really like the little POV switches in the verses. The first couple verses feel much like Eleven's view of River and have great flashes of joy amongst the world-saving--like on the "perspective" lyric--as he knows her better. Watching this, the differences in River/Ten and River/Eleven really strike me. River/Ten is where the tragedy is; I know it's because she "died," obviously, but the whole context, with him not knowing her, is just SAD. River/Eleven still has lots of goodbyes and tragedy, but it's overall so much more fun and joyful. So it's all so much SADDER after you've reversed the timeline into River's perspective, when the death comes after the joy and the developed relationship. OH RIVER.
