"All These Things I've Done" is a The Professionals vid by ci5mates.

Vidder's Summary: "The nature of ci5 work means that Bodie and Doyle have done the hard yards. The things they have done makes them hard yet they are still vulnerable. How could anyone remain unaffected by the things they have done? They deal with it it in their quiet moments and live life to the full knowing that there are no guarantees in their world.

Reactions/Reviews

  • "I love this for the song and the way the vidder has fitted the action into it, and especially for the slow-motion technique used in parts. This is Bodie and Doyle against the world, and the world is winning. It’s a merciless world that they inhabit but they keep struggling, because it’s all they can do."[1]
  • "The song isn't one I'm instantly drawn to, I know it and have never actually disliked it, just never felt moved by it. But I like all the battered lads - and anything with Bodie running gets my vote :0) - so good rec - made me think - made me try something new - all the rec good stuff :0)" [2]
  • "Oh nice - I don't know this one, but I liked it. As you say, nice timing and nice matching of the lyrics to what we know of our lads. I'm finding that I really do prefer vids I can see as slash to gen/het vids, but this is just about on the edge for me. If I reeeeally stretch I could imagine the lads find comfort in each other at the end of all this... *g* Thank you!" [3]
  • "I didn't think of this as being either slash or het (if I close my eyes through the scenes from Hiding To Nothing and Fall Girl) but more about the job they do; in a sense it's more episode-based than telling a new story. In any event I'm glad it worked for you. (and I can see them tumbling into bed together after Cowley's chewed them out at the end, too....)" [4]
  • Good choice! I love the synchronicity of Bodie running to I need direction to perfection, no no no no Also the grey moleskins. :-)"
  • "I like the vid and the lyrics of the song much more than the music." [5]
  • "I'm more generally a fan of 'relationship' vids, but this is a nicely put-together vid of the action-duo variety, and while I'm not a fan per se, I don't object to a little Killers music in my life. Thanks for the reminder." [6]
  • "1:11 -the image of Doyle's lovely face, -this I shall take to bed with me tonight in the small hours, -to keep me warm within my dreams. I love your choice of clips ci5; -you have my favourite *Blind Run* -(I could watch THAT patch all day long and never get tired of it!) - and the wonderful slo-mo,.... oh,...my!!! (Love your write-up too! A perfect accompaniment to a perfect vid!)"[7]
  • "Hey, well finally. Excellent, love Doyle running at the beginning, love Bodie right at the end. Love Doyle in sunnies chewing gum, it all fit together very well. You worry way too much mate. oh and the sliding gold capri wasn't bad either LOL. Do another one now." [8]
