My First Suns Mix

Right. So I've always been in awe of the thousands of skifull mixmakers out there on youtube etc, and thought I'd give it a crack. Having taken my time going through Suns vids on nba.com and Suns.com with a few other random sources of varying quality (apologies for some of the blurry amateur porn quality vids), I thought I'd give it a crack and meh, it ain't too bad I don't think. Brings a smile to my face watching it as it attempts to put a positive spin on the actual team and how supporting the Suns is 'More Than a Feeling' - ironically by Boston...

If you know anything about me, you'll know I hate rap, so the song was never going to be a rap song! So those who like rap might wanna mute my song and put their own on in the background - though some of the drums/beat goes along in unison to some of the plays...
I was going to go for some metal, some old school Metallica but didn't think many would appreciate it :wordyo:

Mainly it's meant to be a 'nice' look back at what was a hell of a hectic 2007-2008 season. All I got to use is Windows movie maker and even then I haven't mastered/figured out how to use it properly yet. I've gotten my feet wet though and will do an Amare one soon cos there are a hell of a lot of his dunks etc available.

Anyway, enjoy, and bring on '09!!

Not too shabby there MACE. So if the Marion thing was in there on purpose, which I figured, I suppose having Iggy dunk on my boy GH was on purpose as well??? :x :lol:

I also, noted that at some point there was a blown layup in there, was that on purpose? It may be, as I am unaware of the lyrics to that song, do like it though. All it all it is pretty awesome as it is a shipload better than anything I could come up with to this stage.

Yeah I thought I'd have a 'down' period in there, with some stuff ups/missed shots/anger/guys being dunked on etc, thought it'd build a better ending somewhat

I was putting it together and never really remembered he sings 'I see my Marianne (Marion duh) walking away...' - went perfectly haha

3 things:

1. Great job! Although it still just pains me to see the Diaw/Marion alley-oop. It worked SO well... and they almost never used it.
2. Where'd you get your footage?
3. You know what other song would be great? U2's Window in the Skies. It's just the right mix of sentiment, I think (and they got this across with their music video, as well).

Dam, makes me think... Phoenix Suns mixes without Marion in it, that's just gonna look weird

For some reason I can't download it :( "Sorry, the free service is at full capacity" is what it reports, maybe waiting for a few minutes could help but you must put it on you tube :wink:

PS: Its working now, I'll report later!

OH MARION.. THE MATRIX.. or the GAY-TRIX (i loved his playing style, but since the trade and figuring out that he was the cancer in our locker room, ive hated his personality. Still give him credit for playing through "stabs at him," but lets not get in to all that).. I still miss the guy. He did all the dirty work on the floor and the sun's need a guy like that. Trade shaq for marion and a resigned jason williams :D

Oh about the mix, i hope you make many more because its not bad at all. The song on the other hand.. But the video just brought back good Marion memories, and i loved the Tucker OOP lol. I thought someone would make a suns mix with shaq falling into the fans, and the next time the bench clearing when he ran for the ball in it sometime, guess still to be done on these boards :D
