Farscape amazes people around the world for many reasons, and realistic characters is one of them. What's interesting is the fact that a show about a man lost in space, accompanied by "aliens" and featuring puppets, is successful not because of special effects, but because of solid, believable characters that people can relate to.

One of the most important aspects of the show is the sense of genuine friendship and respect that develops between the characters. Much like real life, the relationships in Farscape didn't develop over night, they weren't always friendly, and they didn't always come without cost. This video brings to music the fact that through it all, the crew of Moya didn't abandon each other, and expresses why fans of the show will never abandon Farscape.

"Don't Give Up" lyrics

We were wanted all along
I was taught to fight, taught to win
I never thought I could fail

No fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
I've changed my face, I've changed my name
But no-one wants you when you lose

Don't give up
'cos you have friends
Don't give up
You're not beaten yet
Don't give up
I know you can make it good


Though I saw it all around
Never thought that I could be affected
Thought that we'd be last to go
It is so strange the way things turn

Drove the night toward my home
The place that I was born, on the lakeside
As daylight broke, I saw the earth
The trees had burned down to the ground

Don't give up
You still have us
Don't give up
We don't need much of anything
Don't give up
'cause somewhere there's a place
Where we belong
Rest your head
You worry too much
It's going to be alright
When times get rough
You can fall back on us
Don't give up
Please don't give up

Got to walk out of here
I can't take any more
Going to stand on that bridge
Keep my eyes down below
Whatever may come
And whatever may go
That river's flowing
That river's flowing

Moved on to another town
Tried hard to settle down
For every job, so many men
So many men no-one needs

Don't give up
'cause you have friends
Don't give up
You're not the only one
Don't give up
No reason to be ashamed
Don't give up
You still have us
Don't give up now
We're proud of who you are
Don't give up
You know its never been easy
Don't give up
'cause I believe there's a place
There's a place where we belong

A great look at all our Farscape favorites. This is a wonderful mix of all the characters. It really captures the feel of the whole series rather than concentrating on a single character or episode. A difficult concept that you pulled off marvelously. Your use of overlays was excellent as usual. They really added to the vid.

Oh.... that was beautiful. I usually try to identify a very poinently expressed scene where the lyrics and scaper moment blend into one, but here I could not. That is not because it lacked them, but rather because every second was such a moment. Thank you for a job well done. Thank you for five minutes and six seconds of hope. Farscape Forever!

I always love your videos (went out and bought the Evanescence dvd after watching "My Immortal") but this is my favorite so far. It lingers, replaying in my head long after the computer is turned off. Very nice.

Well, it downloaded! This song has always been special to me, so it's only right that it's tied with the tv show that is special to me. I loved the clip selection, and the colour to black and white shots were interesting and original. Not only does the song capture the feelings of the crew, but IMO captures the feelings of fans too. Coz I'm never giving up! Once again a fantastic video, thank you!!

JohnsBride	28th March 2004
Bottom line - EXCELLENT. I'll be watching this one many times. Thank you.

Clip selection, and overlay use was BRILL, baby, BRILL. I love Kate Bush's (marry me) and Peter Gabriel's music. Of course Farscape is high on the LoveList. And you blended'em all nicely. Your vids are well done and always enjoyable dude.

I'm glad to see it's finally here. Again, I have to thank you for making this song into a video. This one song that has always had a special place for me whenever I was down to bring up my spirits. *g* You were able to create something truly beautiful with the clips chosen.

Oh. my. god. That is the most beautiful, ethereal vid I've ever seen. I've been waiting for the wmv version to be posted here, and it was so. worth. the wait. From the opening float down Moya's corridors to the color bleed in the second half, with the absolute perfection in scene/clip selection, and the sheer *rightness* of the last two lines 'cause i believe/i believe there's a place where we belong being Moya... simply gorgeous, all the way through. The epitome of what a vid should be. I look forward to seeing it on the big screen at Burbank in the fall.

This video was frelling awsome. I think you used some very good scenes, and I really love this song. It so fits Farscape and the attitudes of so many fans, including yours truly. I also think FRELLING AWESOME should be adding to the ratings link, because so many of the videos fits that category. scaperoo

Kworb	27th March 2004
Very touching, and amazing how the lyrics and clips capture the crews' struggles. Don't give up when making a video, it's bound to be another masterpiece :)

SETI_fan	27th March 2004
Wow. Very moving lyrics and touching clips chosen to match them. Our FS family's come a long way and gone through a lot. The rhythm was a bit...odd, hard to follow, but the video and the lyrics are beautiful, and Peter Gabriel's voice is always great. Thank you Lith and thank you Kazzy for this video. Very nice. And now I'm all teary.
