  1. Does anyone know if this was considered for the soundtrack where Bella goes through the seasons in retreat and despair--rather than the song 'Tell me when my heart stops' ?

  2. Oh, I agree, this one would have been soooo much better!

  3. Ok after reading the tags I'm not gonna look at this now. I'm not crying today, I've done enough of that in the last while. I'll watch it another day but from the sounds of it it's a good vid! :-)

  5. Truly touching... I really cried...

    I've loved this song since forever. It's so emotional and beautiful. And it goes really well with the sad parts of Edward and Bella's story. Great work!
    Thanks for posting it!

  6. Sniffle. Need a tissue! Such a beautiful video---and the singer is perfect. Always loved this song too. Wow, goosebumps here too, Goz!

    Mean Edward. Boys are mean. Just want to give Bella a hug now.

    ; )

  7. Oh my gosh! What a powerful video. Tingles and tears. It made me see Kristen in a whole new light though. Really well done!

  8. I downloaded the song and I'm playing it on repeat! AMAZING. I wish it was on the New Moon soundtrack...

    Still have goosebumps all over...

  9. I have goosebumps too...This was beautiful and really moving.
    I used to listen to this song by Roxette a few years ago when my "edward" left me... Turned out to be my best friend a few years later but it hurt and sometimes my heart remembers....
    This was beautiful...

  10. This was stunning!!!! This is an old Roxette song but beautifully done by the singer on this video, very emotionally charged!!!

    ReplyDelete
  11. Tears are still on my cheeks and it's been a half hour. :-( I've never heard this song before; am wondering if it is old and therefore not considered for the soundtrack.

    BTW Gozde--how goes it for the interviews? May much success come your way!

  13. The original of this song was from Roxette and it was on Pretty Woman"s soundtrack (1990) twenty years ago I think, so it's old... really old... LOL...

    ReplyDelete
  14. Thats the song off of Pretty Woman. Every womans heartbreak anthem. I sang this song after I broke up with ALL my boyfriends. then I sang "Hit me with your Best Shot!" by Pat Benatar. or "Bump and Grind" by R kelly.

  15. Powerful Vid. Thanks for posting.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Thank You Solas :) I got a call back from one of the interviews. I'm going on Wednesday, so keep me in your prayers :)

    And yes, the original is by Roxette but this version is just so haunting! I love it!

    Who can forget Julia Roberts in the limo on her way to the airport, Roxette playing on the background?

    ReplyDelete
  17. Ahh, ok--thanks. I guess that imght explain why they did not use it even though it fits so beautifully; they wanted all new music for the New Moon soundtrack.

    I don't think I was listening to music or watching movies in that time period (1990). And I don't like Julia Roberts at all, and don't like the movie premise/description either, so I haven't seen Pretty Woman.

    ReplyDelete
  18. sigh. can't see from work, unless there is a myspace version or a .wmv somewhere. Just have to wait to get home. Of course, I would much rather cry at home than work. LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  19. CHAGRIN! Solas! You have to see Pretty Woman! I can't believe it. It's a pop culture must and it's so romantic!

    ReplyDelete
  20. That worth it? I really cannot stand Julia Roberts. But Richard Gere is cute. Maybe I will put it on the list.

    ReplyDelete
  21. How do you download the song? I would like to have this on my computer if possible.

    ReplyDelete
  22. @Kate: Hope you´re feeling better soon, love!!!!

    This is one of my favourites songs since I was a teenager! Thanks for posting it, Goz! it was unbelivable beautiful! *Sigh*

    @Goz: will keep my fingers crossed as well :-)

    ReplyDelete
  23. Haven't see PRETTY WOMAN? OMG... This is a must-have-seen movie.
    Julia Roberts was beautiful in it and it's funny, moving...
    I hate Richard Gere but the movie is nice... really nice!

    ReplyDelete
  24. "...I hate Richard Gere but the movie is nice... really nice!"

    LOL I loved him in that movie.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Siss--I didn't see ANY movies in the theatre, except for Raiders of the Lost Ark and old Disney movies that were playing again, from about 1980-1992, and even after that not much. Once I got a VCR I did see some things I missed, just not Pretty Woman. My big sisters loved it, but then they love Julia Roberts.

    Gozde--surely you know by now that I am not in the pop culture! ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  26. oh wow. That was breathtaking and so sad. And what a beautiful version of the song. I feel a little heartbroken too now.

    ReplyDelete
  27. It was amazing...I also tried to find a copy of the song originally done by Roxette - she did an amzing job. Thank you from a 38 year old obsessed fan...

    ReplyDelete
  28. Wow..this makes me proud of Maria Mena, she actually turned a Roxette classic around and made it her OWN. She is from Norway and very talented...she has her own site http://mariamena.blogg.no/ and info about her on Wikipedia too http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Mena

    I do believe she is on twitter too but cannot be 100% sure http://twitter.com/MariaMena

    And no, I am not like a diehard fan or run her fanclub LMAO, I googled her..just proud of ppl liking a Norwegian singer that's all lol.

    I LOVE her version of It Must Have Been love and the fanmade video was stunning!

    ReplyDelete
  29. OMG Gozde you are killing me today. I am sobbing. I loved this song, and this version of it is heartbreaking.

    This video was well done and beautifully edited. Jordana has some crazy skills.

  30. Tried to find this song to download. Couldn't find Maria's version of it (on mp3) but there are other covers at Amazon, including Roxette:

    Sorry for the long link; but I was there anyway. ; ) Sigh. Really like Maria's version!!!

  31. I watched it- I cried- it's very, very beautiful!!

    ReplyDelete
  32. thank you for posting this. loving this site more and more every day.

    liked the roxette version, but really love this one. so much more haunting. so beautifully sad.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Oh Gozde you're killing me... I can't stop crying!

    I downloaded the song and I listen to it again and again but I can't watch the video another time.. it's too emotional..

    I like this version much more than Roxette's. The lyrics are so sad and this version makes it more "real". Maria Mena put a lot of emotion into this song!

    ReplyDelete
  34. where is the download for this version?

    ReplyDelete
  35. Omg!! I started to cry so I like fast forwarded it!! Haha!

    ReplyDelete
  36. If... and only IF.... you want to just go ahead and launch into a crying jag and get all that pent up sorrow out, here's Mena again backing Rachel and Ross. Even if you're not a big Friends fan, this will pull your heart strings...

  37. Loisada - I should have heeded your warning. Awwww Ross and Rach.
    Thanks for the memories :)

    ReplyDelete
  38. WOW, that was great and sad and really, really beautiful!

    They actually should hire some of the fans for completing the remaining movi(es)! Ask a fan and it def. will turn out right!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Can't get this off my mind now! The break-up story and this song struck strong chords with so many women.

    Here's another E&B vid with same song.... with wonderful shot choices and absolutely heart-wrenching sequences.

    ReplyDelete
  54. awww, poor Bella (and poor Edward too). So heartbreaking. Very nicely done Jordana, thank you. A fav song from the NM soundtrack, Roslyn, would be great for a video. It has such an ethereal sound & plucks at my heartstrings whenever I listen to it. Unearthly and sad.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Wow, this was beautiful. Such emotion.

    Thanks, Goz. xo

  58. holy crap! that was so so so good!

    ReplyDelete
  59. So, why wasn't this used on the New Moon soundtrack? Old, Pfffffft. It fits perfectly. Lovely. Thanks.

    My prayers and hugs to both Goz and Kate.

  60. This is awesome. Can anyone send me the link to the song verison Maria sings?

  61. So, this 3 minute video was more sad than the actual movie. They should have done something like this in the movie to make his departure more touching. I didn't cry during the movie.

    ReplyDelete
  62. It is beautiful! Loved the singing.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Too sad. Where are the tissues?

    ReplyDelete
  64. Can someone please send me Maria's version of this song? It would make my bad day today not so bad :(

  65. Beautiful rendition of this song... beautiful video.

    One of my favourite things about seeing the saga translated to film is how much it inspires people to tap into their creativity. it's amazing.

    ReplyDelete
  66. Thank you for sharing that beautiful video and song - I really enjoyed it!

    Maria Mena (didn't know who she was before but now I do) has a beautiful voice! :)

    Loved it!

  71. @solas, did you not like that song in the soundtrack? I love it, and think it so invokes what she is feeling, I get emotional every time I hear it, painful but so appropriate.

    ReplyDelete
  72. P.S. This song would have worked. It is heart wrenching.

    ReplyDelete
  73. Thanks for posting Gozde! She does such an amazing job with her videos-very talented! Here's the link to another awesome Twilight video she made:

    And her version of the RM trailer:

    So wonderful...beyond words.

  74. Wow. Beautiful and heartbreaking!!

    ReplyDelete
  75. Very touching... I like how Maria Mena re-made this song. You can really feel the heart break. =(

    ReplyDelete
  76. @anna please send it to me also...I spent the entire morning trying to find a download version.
