This is a retrospective of JB's career, minus several MB's of credits, so:
Thanks Brian McArthur (since dec'd) for many of the clips, and everyone at the old jonathanbrandis.org - (no this is NOT a commercial.) I was forced to 'audio-swap' the soundtrack, which took weeks to synch, but, since
SONY got huffy about the SAME track on another video,
I'll be happy that the piece (which is beautiful,
Mahler's
5th Symphony,
Adagio), can be used here and fits - more or less, (about eight seconds too long), though it's a sight more somber than the music originally featured. (Thanks
WMG - holder of one of the copyrights, clearly cited in the original message here.)
Jonathan was a closet
Classical music lover, and he was familiar with Mahler, so I think he'd approve.
Okay, so the episode of "
Full House" is mislabeled as "
Who's The Boss" - same year, about a month apart. A
FEW things are missing, (mostly earlier work) but that was the nature of the game in
2005 when I actually MADE this tribute.
Someone told me that my software program couldn't handle more than eight clips. SOMEONE wanted this to be done, then, because there are something like 39 of them here.
Thirteen years and two hundred thousand + views later, the message is still there, kid.
You mattered.
You STILL matter.
Your are not defeated, and you are not diminished.
We remember.
Rest in peace, now and always.
Be aware that WMG (and YouTube) completely removed the original soundtrack, though JB worked for them (and he made them a tidy profit.)
Yet another example of corporate greed destroying creativity
. Next someone will walk through graveyards and chisel off the poetry quoted there as 'copyright infringement'. This video was done for purely EDUCATIONAL purposes, as a MEMORIAL to a friend, and had NO purpose of self-aggrandizement, advertisement or profit (my name isn't even in it anywhere at all), nor was it intended to lessen the profits of any corporation or decrease the number of CD's an old 90's group might still sell.
The music used (that WAS used) herein was all content the
Eponymous enjoyed and would have probably liked linked to his memory (without controversy,) including ORIGINAL compositions. One of the points of the video was to allow people to
HEAR JB's voice - which is now totally gone from the piece.
Enjoy the pictures, anyway, until Viacom, or some other corporate amoeba finishes destroying the content.
If you're dropping by to dump your intolerance, nonsensical rumors and ignorance on someone who can't fight back, congratulations, you're banned and removed (for good) and may all the karmic merits that you so richly deserve come to you in abundance.
(Because THIS one is QUITE alive and CAN fight back
...)
