Lyrics:

I'm the gum on your shoes
The prostitute who rings your family
I'll take your breath away
You crossed my path and you'll pay
And both your friends will laugh
I'm a person with a plan for you
I'm a person who will
wreck your confidence
I will be your namesake
I will be your headache
I will be your witsend
I will be your girlfriend
I'm the knee in your groin
Look around you, no-one's noticed
It's true
I'm a person with a plan for you
I'm a person who will
wreck your confidence
I will be your namesake
I will be your headache
I will be your wits end
I will be your girlfriend
I'm the gum on your shoe
I'm the knee in your groin
I'm the fly in your soup
I have the fruit of your loin
Somehow I'll complicate your life
and now you'll have to tell your wife
I'm a person with a plan for you
I'm a person who will
wreck your confidence
I will be your namesake
I will be your headache
I will be your witsend
I will be your girlfriend

Gah. I went and posted this first to the wrong vid! My excuse is that I store all my vids by the name of the artist and song - so I'd gone back to find out who wrote the song Samson, and forgot which window I was typing in. *facepalm* Sorry about that!

OK. I finally got my act together and thought "feedback time!" having been totally lazy for weeks ;) So, much belated and unworthy though it is, here's the feedback I've owed you for ages.

First off... the very first thing that came to mind when I started watching was "how funny and appropriate is it that Boppy started this vid where Clois started... and with nudity, which is such a superb comment on the nature of Smallville?"

I think you've caught all my favourite Clois moments in here, and pretty much all of my favourite Lois moments too. I can't get over how much fun it is seeing Lois standing next to the strongest man in the world... and while he looks confused, she's beating villains up. Or threatening him with shower attachments. Or threatening him with her breasts. Or taking his breath away...

I loved the meta-y way you echoed "I will be your girlfriend" with some great clips - particularly the clip from early on where Lois grabs Clark by one arm and tows him away. This vid really does capture that Lois is always going to be pulling Clark around, whether he wants to or not - and every time he stops, he's going to realise he wants too.

I think you also maybe used every moment where she hits him in canon... and I loved the timing on little moments, like the way she almost throttles him with the tie in time with the rising note around the middle of the vid. There are just so many things I love about the way you've put this vid together - like the way you tie Lois wrecking his confidence in with a barrage of clips showing Clark realising that she really is a woman and an attractive one, only to finish with her looking adoringly at him from Crimson. The way you built the sense of fun up and then kept it running throughout this vid is wonderful - I particularly want to gush about the ending of this vid with the famous dunking scene, because you managed to capture Clark being cocky and confident, Lois dropping him in it (literally) and the two of them just grinning at each other like kids. In a world where everyone will end up treating Superman with awe, Lois doesn't hesitate to treat him like a... well, boyfriend, younger brother, annoying man and friend all bundled into one. I can't see anyone else dashing up to ruffle his hair like that ;)

This is an excellent vid - I know you felt like you were freewheeling, but it's one long bundle of happy fun, and you should be proud of it.
