Angels on the sideline,
Puzzled and amused.
Why did Father give these humans free will?
Now they're all confused.

Don't these talking monkeys know that Eden has enough to go around?
Plenty in this holy garden, silly monkeys
Where there's one you're bound to divide it
Right in two

Angels on the sideline,
Baffled and confused.
Father blessed them all with reason,
And this is what they choose?

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey over pieces of the ground.
Silly monkeys give them thumbs they forge a blade
And where there's one they're bound to divide it
Right in two

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey over pieces of the ground.
Silly monkeys give them thumbs they make a club,
And beat their brother down.
How they survive so misguided is a mystery.
Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability,
To lift an eye to heaven, conscious of his fleeting time here.

Cutting it all right in two
Cut it all right in two
Cutting our love right in two

Fight over the clouds, over wind, over sky
Fight over your lie, over blood, over anything
Fight over love, over sun, over nothing
Fight till they die,
(Ahhh!) over what? for their ending

Angels on the sideline again,
[Mixing love / Benched along] with patience and reason.
Angels on the sideline again,
Wondering where this tug of war will end.

Cutting it all right in two
Cut it all Right in two
Cutting our love Right in two

Right on! Some great summer stoke in high-def. It took me three tries to actually download and run it without incident, though. The hazards of running cutting edge technology on a tired old machine...

Alright, I downloaded the beast file. I'm missing some plug-in or something.
It says not available too. The music plays, excellent choice btw. I want to see something though. Dang.

Nice shots!

mtnrider - do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed? The video is encoded in H.264 format which is somewhat new; if you have an older version of QT it may not understand it.

Mine just played the music and strobed green when I tried to play it in Quicktime on a Windows XP box. I think Quicktime was updated in the last few weeks. I right-clicked the file and and chose open with... to open it in Internet Explorer. With Quicktime running as a plugin inside an IE window it ran fine. Don't know why... it just did.

It took 2.5 hours to download...but it played like butta. Nice job Sir.....HD rules!!!

Pretty sweet. I had no problems. The turns on top looked awesome.

Not to be greedy....but I will be...you gonna put together a 07/08 compilation vid this year. I'm jonseing for stoke.

PS I know it takes a massive amount of hours so no pressure, just curious.

Glad you guys liked it!

Eco, Cool to hear it played fine. What machine are you on?
ps. Any new baby yet???

mtnrider,
What machine are you on? As long as you have quicktime 7.1.6 it should work fine.

SF, What machine are you on and what happened during the download?


I've downloaded it a couple times on PC and Mac and have seen different speeds. It IS a pretty big file and could have something to do with the server. I'll keep playing with things......

I'm on a ~3 year old Windows XP machine that was never top-of-the-line to start with.

I downloaded the file and ran it off my disk drive. On the first download attempt the machine crashed out midway through the download. On the second attempt the machine hung after downloading 99% of the file. I think that time it hung while picking up the pieces from the download. On the final attempt it went fine. I think the only issue was the file size and the low odds of my machine working on any job for 15 minutes without blowing up. I have a big new hard drive and new RAM, so those weren't the issues.

Once I had the file downloaded I had trouble running it in Quicktime. I heard the music but the image was strobing fluorescent green and black. None of your images at all, just flashing green. I've seen this happen before with HD footage from TEX. I believe that I updated Quicktime and Itunes automatically in the last week or two, but I didn't pay close attention to what exactly was being updated. At any rate, I right-clicked the file chose the Open With... option so that I could explicitly run it in Internet Explorer, rather than with Quicktime alone. Then it ran fine. I hope that's helpful.

Eco - TEX is rumoured to have a lot of Hi Def skinning footage. Maybe he'll come out with the definitive skinning vid this summer!!

Since you're now a MAC convert, I think I have to update to the latest Quicktime. ugh. oh well, I'm on it.

now's about the time of year that i start to believe it'll never snow again...thanks for the stoke!!!!!!!!!

SanFrantastico, I have a 4.39 minute video in HD ...even has some riding ,you interested in hosting? Its only 660 meg

I'll do it, but I only have a terabyte of disk space so I'll only be able to host about 1500 more of them after this. Yeah - send it over right away!!
