Agent Carter - Welcome to New York from shinyjenni on Vimeo.

(password: newyork)

Walking through a crowd, the village is aglow
Kaleidoscope of loud, heartbeats under coats
Everybody here wanted something more
Searching for a sound we hadn't heard before
And it said
Welcome to New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
It's a new soundtrack, I could dance to this beat, beat
Forever more
The lights are so bright but they never blind me, me
Welcome to New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York

When we first dropped our bags on apartment floors
Took our broken hearts, put them in a drawer
Everybody here was someone else before
And you can want who you want
Boys and boys and girls and girls
Welcome to New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
It's a new soundtrack, I could dance to this beat, beat
Forever more
The lights are so bright but they never blind me, me
Welcome to New York (New York)
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York

Like any great love it keeps you guessing
Like any real love it's ever changing
Like any true love it drives you crazy
But you know you wouldn't change anything anything
Anything
Welcome to New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York

It's a new soundtrack, I could dance to this beat
The lights are so bright but they never blind me
Welcome to New York
New soundtrack
It's been waiting for you
Welcome to New York
The lights are so bright but they never blind me
Welcome to New York
So bright
They never blind me
Welcome to New York
Welcome to New York

AAAAAAAAAAAAAH JENNI!!!!!! This is WONDERFUL!!! And SO VERY FUCKING CATHARTIC. I started grinning right from the very start, with that glorious opening montage of Peggy "big damn hero" Carter beating up all the men on the beat. And there was SO MUCH beating up all the men!! *dreamy sigh*.

aaaah it's just perfect. I think on a first watch my favourite part (other than the beating up the men) was that really heartwrenching verse "Everybody here was someone else before / And you can want who you want". Such perfect, wow.

Also it had all the dynamism and movement you're always so good at. How do you do that???

Also also: her face.

Thank you! :D There are so many terrible men in need of beating up and Peggy is ON IT. <3

[alwaystheocean]

Eeee, you finished it! It's WONDERFUL and so nice to see it all with no gaps! <3 I'm seriously so pleased! :D (Also it's inspirational, I wanna do mine now! ;D)

Also it's been ages since I listened to this song, it's so great, and such a good choice for Peggy, and look at all that gorgeous movement and punching on the beat!

Thank you! (And yay! :D)

I finally caught this in my forgotten tabs--so great! I love the intercutting of Peggy punching people and her faaaace. :D

[usuallyhats]

Great work! The stretch over took our broken hearts, put them in a drawer
Everybody here was someone else before
And you can want who you want
Boys and boys and girls and girls made me super emotional - Peggy's grief over Steve and then shots of her from First Avenger looking so brave and amazing and arrgh then all of my Peggy/Steve and Peggy/Angie feelings. I love that you went for the funny, WANT moment of Peggy putting her hand on Steve's chest (as opposed to them having a ~meaningful ~moment) there.
