Criminal Intent - Hands Up (video)

The idea of a "hands" video started over a year ago for Tjara's birthday when I made her a mini-vid which you can see here.  Unfortunately, the song I used for her video is by Simple Plan and I've had two other full length videos (two of my best!) using Simple Plan songs banned by YouTube.  I think I've learned my lesson.

When Hedley came out with this song, my opportunity arrived and I've had a blast making this video.  A BIG thanks to the cimusers who told me where to find specific clips from episodes I couldn't remember and for suggesting some favourite "hand" clips.  Now crank up the volume and enjoy!

This is my first HD video and is best viewed *full SCREEN* on YouTube rather than smaller.



YouTube has banned this video in Germany, so here it is on Vimeo (it plays better small on Vimeo than YouTube).

Hands Up – Hedley

Oh my god, something is wrong
I'm floating down a river
Where I don't belong without you
Cause if I fall without you

Now I see, it's all clear to me
I can do a lot of things
But I could never be without you
Cause if I fall without you

PRE-CHORUS
And you pick me up when I am down (pick me up)
And you make me smile

CHORUS
So hands up, take it all away
If I got you, then I'll be okay
I know now everybody say,
"If I got you I like it that way."

Oh my god, nothing is fine
I go a little crazy
Cause I'm losing my mind without you
Cause if I fall without you (if I fall)

Come what may, all I gotta say
I could have a lot of fun
But I don't wanna play without you
Cause if I fall without you (woo)

PRE-CHORUS
You pick me up when I am down (pick me up now)
And you make me smile

CHORUS
So hands up, take it all away
If I got you, then I'll be okay
I know now everybody say,
"If I got you I like it that way."

Without you I don't have a reason
Without you I don't have a song
Cause all my days I live to praise you
Make me want to scream and shout it out
It's all I gotta say

CHORUS
Hands up, take it all away
If I got you, then I'll be okay
I know now everybody say,
"If I got you I like it that way."

Hands up, take it all away
If I got you, then I'll be okay
I know now everybody say,
"If I got you I like it that way."
If I got you, then I'll be okay
"If I got you I like it that way."

(Like it that way, like it that way,
like it that way, like it that way,
like it that way, like it that way,
like it that way)
