Also, I really liked what the creator of the video had to say about the anime, song and the video. So bear with me as I post that as well:
"Now as for my personal feelings about this video...Cowboy Bebop is the only anime I have ever liked. This is due to the fact that is a very mature, very film noir story and while there are other anime like it, none have topped it in my eyes. I first saw the series back on its initial run on Adult Swim and I was hooked. I identified with Spike on practically every level. As I grow older I identify with him more and more. The final episode was probably the most emotional ending to a series I can recall.
"I saw every episode many many times over the years and when I learned how to capture and edit video on my computer I immediately set to work to find a suitable song to do this video justice. Watching the final episode again and again for inspiration I decided what better song than Blue, one of the best songs I have ever heard, and one that I thought could do this video justice. I hope you enjoy it for what it is, my personal salute to the best Anime in existence."
Never seen a bluer sky
Yeah I can feel it reaching out
and moving closer
There's something 'bout blue
Asked myself what it's all for
You know the funny thing about it
I couldn't answer
No, I couldn't answer
Things have turned a deeper shade of blue
and images that might be real
may be illusion
Keep flashing off and on
Free...
Wanna be free, Gonna be free
and move among the stars
You know they really aren't so far
Feels so free...
Gotta know free... Please...
Don't wake me from the dream
It's really everything it seemed
I'm so free...
No black and white in the blue
Everything is clearer now
Life is just a dream, you know
that's never ending
I'm ascending
