Lilah/Fred: She's My Man
1SnoWhiteQueen1
First I wanna say that there just aren’t enough Lilah/Fred vids out there. I love this unusual pairing. The manips in this vid are just awesome and very credible. The storyline is great, funny and very clear. I like the black-and-white-with-a-little-color-here-and-there effects used throughout the vid. I love how Fred kinda first warns Angel to stay away from Lilah and when he doesn’t listen, she turns him into a puppet. lol The ending is very sexy.

Solider ~ Doyle/Cordelia - Angel
SamanthaWinnings
Major squee! I love this vid! I love Doyle and I especially love Doyle/Cordy (seriously, don't ever ask me to pick between Dordy and Cangel, I'm not sure what I would do! lol). This vid is awesome. I love the song choice and the editing is just amazing. I really love how the video opens with all the letters scrambling around (huh, I've said "love" a lot in this review lol). Anyway, check out this vid. You're sure to love it, whether you love Doyle, Dordy, or both. Also, have a little kleenex prepped for the end. If you're familiar with AtS at all, you'll know why.

Illyria: Beautiful and Dangerous
iBadFred
Illyria really rocks. I, like most people, (I assume) couldn’t stand her at first but that didn’t last very long. Now she is one of my fav characters. This is probably the best Illyria vid I’ve seen. Needless to say, bodies do hit the floor in this vid. I like the scene in the beginning of the vid where Illyria wastes everyone. The tempo of the vid is really fast. I think it’s captivating and it suites this bad ass character well. Some of the effects I have never seen before. Very interesting and cool. I also love the “skull crushing ending”. lol

Howl- Angel/Darla [Angel]
shoopdancer2504
I found it! I found it! *dances around insanely* No, I don't need a straightjacket. It's just that I saw this vid a long time ago, but somehow lost track of it. It's done to the song "Howl" by Florence and the Machine and it's an amazing vid to the song. Every time I would see another vid with the song, I would think of this vid and how this one was the definitive vid for the song (for me). Then I would go through a mourning period because I couldn't go watch it. I found it again a few weeks ago when it actually popped up in my "recommended for you" box on youtube. (go figure) I was so thrilled and I knew I had to review it. I know this hasn't been so much of a review as my hunt for the vid, but seriously, would I have been that desperate if the vid wasn't amazing? The way the beats are matched, the clip choices, the Angel/Darla pairing to the song "Howl. Come on! You have to watch this. I will warn you though, you'll be spoiled for every other vid that uses the song afterwards.

Lilah Morgan - Devil With The Black Dress On
blatterations
Lilah is a character I have conflicted feelings about. I used to dislike her but lately she’s kinda started growing on me. This vid especially touched me. I think it’s a very good semi-light hearted character study. The song choice is just great. I like how the vidder made the clips fit the lyrics whenever Angel is being mentioned. And I definitely love Wesley as the devil’s new ride. ;)

"There are no people like us." [AtS]
Elphuyero10
I don't really care for the cover of this song, "Keep Holding On", but it's impossible to deny the epicness of this video regardless. At some points I almost cried. My eyes were literally watering. The clip choices, editing, and voice over selection were all perfect. The whole thing was just so AtS (except this version of the song, just ignore it and focus on the lyrics and the epic editing). I would prep some kleenex beforehand though and also have some AtS dvds on stand by. Be prepared to miss the show if you watch this, and you should totally watch this. I'm off to catch up on some AtS episodes now, after a few more vid re-watches of course. Gosh this vid made me miss the show.
