My entry to The Song of the Ages. This is "The Longest Time" by Billy Joel.
About this creation
Link to the contest.
Link to the original song.

*Whistling*

Janitor: You gonna be much longer son?
Billy: Nah. Not much longer.

......

Oh, Oh, Oh
For the longest time

Oh, Oh, Oh
For the longest time

If you said goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write

What else could I do, I'm so inspired by you
That hasn't happened for the longest time

Once I thought my innocence was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on

That's where you found me, when you put your arms around me
I haven't been there for the longest time

Oh, Oh, Oh
For the longest time
Oh, Oh, Oh
For the longest time

I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
And the greatest miracle of all

Is how I need you, and how you needed me too
That hasn't happened for the longest time

Maybe this won't last very long

But you feel so right

And I could be wrong

Maybe I've been hoping too hard

But I've gone this far
And it's more than I hoped for

Who knows how much further we'll go on
Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone

I'll take my chances, I forgot how nice romance is
I haven't been there for the longest time

I had second thoughts at the start
I said to myself, hold on to your heart

Now I know the woman that you are
You're wonderful so far
And it's more than I hoped for

I don't care what consequence it brings
I have been a fool for lesser things

I want you so bad, I think you ought to know that
I intend to hold you for the longest time

Oh, Oh, Oh
For the longest time

Oh, Oh, Oh
For the longest time

Oh, Oh, Oh
For the longest time

Oh, Oh, Oh
For the longest time

Oh, Oh, Oh
For the longest time...
4th Wall:
One of my all time favorite songs, when I saw this on the list for the contest, I knew I had to join. I think it turned out pretty well considering my pieces restrictions. I hope you've all enjoyed!
C&C Appreciated.

Originality: 18. Quality: 15. Creativity: 19. Overall interpretation: 20. Compared to the music video, some of your scenes were missing details that would have really made this entry. The scene in the beginning was instantly recognizable and you can tell there was a party. I decided to cut even on the quality score as some scenes had a good amount of details while other scenes lacked. Total score: 72. |

Quality- 16
Creativity- 18
Overall Interpretation- 18

Well done. Your recreation of the music video was quite accurate. However, you were also scored on the quality of the build, which is where I think could have been a bit more detailed, perhaps. Excellent entry, though.
Thank you! :D |

Gotta love the Piano Man! Great work, I really love all of the sets in this; just please tell me the guy with the shades isn't Phipson... ;-) Awesome stuff!
Not. Common misconception. ;) |

in the pic above "Who knows how much further we'll go on Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone" how'd you get the arms to be like that.
It's something similar to this:
