Normally I don't like the PMVs with heavy special effects because they're usually using them to make up for deficiencies in other areas. This one conveys a story sorta well regardless of that, so thumbs up.
@Kaijyuu See and I kinda like the heavy special effects if they're synced up right. PMV's that are basically just clips taken from the show with music in bg just aren't worth watching to me. It's gotta have some work in it, and more the better. That said, take note, if you're going to try and lip sync stuff it either has to be perfect or not done at all. Pet peeve, but watching the mouth just flap away completely unrelated (but trying to be) just looks terrible.
Omg.. You guys are driving me nuts... AWOLNATION is just one guy! He does it all! Singing, music, the videos to go with them, his album art, and marketing...
The video was great, the song is awesome, but the two of them put together isn't good at all. The song is much darker than anything MLP could ever be. Putting Rainbow Dash with that song is just unfitting at the very least. One of the best parts of the original video for "Sail" was how well it conveyed the song with it's few cryptic lyrics.
Would love to see someone make a good PMV of Voltaire's song 'Riding A Black Unicorn Down The Side Of An Erupting Volcano While Drinking From A Chalice Filled With The Laughter Of Small Children', but at the same time, even with fantastic editing skills, I don't know if thats possible.
Editing was really nice! Though in all honesty I was expecting Setting Sail, Coming Home from the Bastion soundtrack, but regardless I still enjoyed this PMV.
Not a big fan of AWOLNation, but that was awesome. Best editing yet I've seen in a pmv, and the song fit pretty nicely. These just keep getting better and better.
The only other music video of "Sail" that approaches this level of awesomeness would have to be Jeb Corliss wingsuiting off a cliff and coming within four feet of ending his life in "Grinding the Crack". So began my love for AWOLnation.

TEAM AWOLNATION!
Weird I was just listening to this song.Awesome vid though.
Yay! Btw. Just made a twitter acc to get in touch with notch and harass him some (in his main language! :D) but I can't understand a thing...

It was pretty good.

It was going pretty good until that guy started singing.
Personally, I think "Burn It Down" would be a better idea for a PMV
It was well done but I can't say I like the song itself much.

I dunno what you're talking about, AWOLNATION's singer is awesome :P
Once again TommyXe delivers with an awesome PMV.
I love AWOL Nation, but this is honestly my least favorite of their songs. The singing in the is awful and the static background wash is so lame.
Everyone should go look up their awesome song Knights of Shame, a truly epic 11min display of talent.
what's the deal with awolnation and rainbow dash?
anyway I love it
I think the special effects look nice :P I liked the song better before the guy started singing though.
I saw this before it was posted here...
I'm so damn hip.
Well, most of the AWOLNATION PMV's seem to be quite good.
AWOLNATION is best pony.
The 2nd good quality PMV I actually took the time to watch. Both are by AWOLNATION.
Not my type of song, but very good video editing.
DASHIE!!!!!
thats worth saving to the phone
I didn't find it really amazing or anything to be honest. But it's good.
@Dublio
You got this right
Omg.. You guys are driving me nuts... AWOLNATION is just one guy! He does it all! Singing, music, the videos to go with them, his album art, and marketing...
Also, I am in love with Rainbow Sail.

I got into Awolnation through the Kill your heroes PMV...
I love Ponies
I love Awolnation
Today is a good day.

Great PMV right there, didn't like the song, but the epic editing made up for that :D

Instant fav!
Oooooooohhh pretty!
Ah, another pmv by TommyXe. I recommend checking out his PMV 'Ponyvarium'. That's my second favorite PMV by anybody.
Instant fave! I even removed an FPSRussia vid from my fave box to make room for this one, that's how awesome it is!
I don't understand by "check it out after the break" on any of the posts
@Jesus
the 'break' is the point below which you cannot see on the front page. You have to click 'see more' to see anything that is 'after the break'.
GOOD editing
BAD song :/
>Just bought AWOLNATION's CD today
>Thought it was awesome
>Doesn't understand why Sail is their most popular song
Man ALIVE that was epic.
@Aether Dash Wait, Burn it Down by AWOLNation? Or Burn it Down by a different band, 'cause I know like five songs with that title.
@K4RN4GE
By AWOLNATION. I just think it'd be a good song for the likes of Pinkie Pie
Source for pic please? :]
@spencer'sEPICphotos. That is my painting. You can find it in my gallery at http://tsitra360.deviantart.com
@BlackStar03
Haha, you have bad taste.
Video and song owned, although I do agree that Kill Your Heroes was better suited for PMV work. Soul Wars would make a fun video :3
Nice. I had been wondering where all the good amv makers had gone from conventions. This is more proof that they have been making PMVs.
The only other music video of "Sail" that approaches this level of awesomeness would have to be Jeb Corliss wingsuiting off a cliff and coming within four feet of ending his life in "Grinding the Crack". So began my love for AWOLnation.
I see. Definitely worthwhile it is! At Mercurial: I'm sure even that would have a tough time making it to the same league as this.
