Agree with all of you! This song isn’t about the saga at all its a song for Bruno. Even when it was first mentioned as a BD song, and it aired on satellite my husband said “what? This over Muse? Paramore? Anyone?”! It really is too commercialized and doesn’t fit our beloved saga at all. Even Iron&Wine is a beautiful remake…come on!!!! And the video was a joke! I never liked Christina Perry and now she won me over right down to matching tattoos! So now hubby has bragging rights! The saga introduced me to Muse and now he’s a huge fan (we’ve gone to 3 concerts in one year) and now he’s introduced me to Co…not as big as Muse in our house yet…but we’ll see….but BM…..NEVER!!!! Here’s to praying Muse is on BD Pt 2!!!!!

I hope so too.  Really miss Muse, since they were such a big influence on Stephenie Meyer. I bet they were really awesome to see live.
There’s a song by an Australian band called the Living End that I think would have been awesome for the first movie.  It’s called Staring at the Light.  Lyric: “Some may relish in the afterlife, dancing slowly on the edge of a knife.  Sipping wine of the poisonous kind – overdose on loneliness… Staring at the light, so easily denied.  Staring at the light, released before your time…”
Sorry, I’m on a soap box. :0)

Also, the Iron and Wine remake was incredible.  

I’m going to punch the lil’ #%#@! in the face who came up with the idea: “This video is not available in your region”.

so i shouldn’t be that pissed that i cannot see the video??? you know…mtv does not allow that in my region because i live on Neptun…tough stuff being an alien i’m telling you!!!

uk gang i cant find it on you tube but if you go to the mtv uk website its on there

I don’t like him either! I never have. I have NO idea what the hype is all about. His songwriting is terrible (“I’ll be lounging on the couch just chilling in my Snuggie/Click to MTV so they can teach me how to dougie” – is he for real??), his voice is decent but I’ve heard much better, and there’s nothing at all original about his sound. How this guy got the attention of record company bigwigs is so far beyond me it’s halfway to Pluto.

I totally agree with you on that one.

Kind of disappointed with this video.  Where were the Breaking Dawn scenes???  I mean come on this is a song from a movie soundtrack!! 

video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNSeVaBzWB0

Ok, so Bruno Mars was given a massive opportunity here and his song and the words have grown on me, but what an absolute shambles of a video.  He has let down Twihards worldwide with a haphazard ‘interpretation’ that I can only describe as him and a moderately plain jane moping around in a house with no wall paper.  Gutted about the result.  Severely disappointed.  I will ONLY be watching the fan made video that was on here a few weeks ago and I will NEVER watch the official one again.  What a disgrace for the beginning of the end. :’(

Is there a youtube link? Can’t watch the video, I live in Belgium

That was what we had to wait for?? Really? What a sucky video…so disappointing

is there a reason why BD scenes aren’t in this? so much for this being the Jacob/Bella theme song.  they should be in it. Christina Perri put them in hers. 

I totally agree that it matches perfectly to Edwards dark mood but whoever directs the videos just didn’t get it, Iguess.  It could have been soooo much more.  I still love Bruno and the song but am a little dissapointed but hey  Breaking Dawn in 7 days!!  Then we can see all the scenes!! 

Ok i know im just repeating everyone else but that is some serous BS! I was all set for some footage and then… nothing. If i hadnt read that bottom comment under the video I would have watched that whole sorry exuse for a video, like anyone gives a crap about bruno and his random love intrest huh! 

exactly! I just think the song is dull and predictable, the chorus is just, mehhh!
I love the tone from the other soundtracks too! It had an edge to it because the story isnt just clean cut, different levels of up and down.
I havent heard the Noisettes song BUT I adore them so Im sure I’ll like it

Didn’t get it.  Look fast before it disappears!!!!

Maybe that’s why they ended up having Christina Perri debut first. They became aware that the fans would be p.o.’d at this, and needed something more genuine. Perri was bawling when she got to see the movie, has a twilight *tattoo*, and wrote her song as a love song to Bella and Edward. They *must* have realized her song would mean a million times more to the fans.

But yeah, it’s a halfway decent pop break up song, but I don’t see how it really applies to Edward being afraid of Bella dying. That’s such a different, deeper, more heartbreaking situation than what Bruno’s singing about here. This song just doesn’t really apply to the movie at all, in my view. Even with Jacob, he was afraid of Bella dying as well. This ain’t no gf walking out the door situation (as heartbreaking and awful as that is, and I know, ’cause I’ve been there).  This song almost would have applied better to Bella in New Moon, in a lot of ways.

Love that song Bruno.That song was a hit.My wife loves it also.Guess will see the movie first day.thanks…………….

fucking shit ha ha ha
