Video 3 - Can You Keep A Secret?

The third music video I subtitled was "Can You Keep A Secret?". This wasn't as hard as "Passion", in terms of its poetical nature, but was still more complex than "Automatic". I managed to translate the majority of this by myself, having to only ask for assistance on one or two lines. To be specific, this verse here:

"かすかな物音 追ってくる movin' shadow
振り切れなくなる影
少しの冒険と 傷付く勇気も あるでしょ"

Which I translated to become:

"A faint sound
The following movin' shadow
That shadow we can't get rid of
It's just a little adventure and some hurt pride"

This video suffered the same problem as "Passion", with the subtitles appearing too small on the screen. However, having learnt from last time, I remedied this before hardsubbing the file. The only other problem was that I experienced some issues with the audio being out of sync with the movie. (A problem with the file I'd gotten ahold of, not one that any of my programs had created.) But, I was able to solve this by using several video editing programs and removing and reattaching the sound.
