Received First Place in Liz's (TheLizzard) December challenge!
Well, there's a reason for reading it this time, as this video is a bit different than anything I've done, and it's also a bit different than many other videos that I've seen. The clips that I've put to this song are NOT meant to match up with the actual lyrics of the song (that is, the words you're hearing), but rather to my version of the lyrics. Let me explain.
For the December Monthly Challenge on MuggleNet Fan Fiction (http://fanfiction.mugglenet.com), I had a sudden spurt of inspiration to write for the second challenge, a.k.a, the challenge for making a parody of a Christmas song. (And this was sudden, as I got the idea, wrote it, and submitted it in the final 24 hours before the deadline.) They are located below in this description. PLEASE READ THE LYRICS! The video will, while still hopefully look nice, not make much sense without them.
This video is about Lily and Harry, really, and ... well ... like the title says, did she know what her son would go through and everything?
As a final note, please forgive the repeating of clips that I had to do. I didn't want to use any other movies to get a Lily or a baby Harry, and the Harry Potter films are vastly limited on scenes using Lily. (In other words, the Mirror of Erised images are used quite often, though I tried to mix it up with other images of Harry.)
Oh, and another thing, this video actually has credits at the end, so they're not posted below like I usually have them. Rather, the lyrics to the parody have taken their place. (The list of casting and clips, however, are still posted.)

Song Parody Lyrics (Lily, Did You Know):
Lily, did you know
That your baby boy
Would some day conquer evil?
Lily, did you know
That your baby boy
Survives because of your love?
Did you know
That your baby boy
Is called the "Chosen One"?
This child that you believe in,
Soon everyone will too.
Lily, did you know
That your baby boy
Will defeat the Dark Lord?
Lily, did you know
That your baby boy
Will save all of magic kind?
Did you know
That your baby boy
Will soar through the skies?
And when you look upon your child,
You've seen a brave hero.
Oh, Lily, did you know?
Oh, Lily, did you know?
Oh . . .
The start'll be hard;
The path, trying;
But friends will help him through.
With Ron, Ginny,
And Hermione too,
Your son cannot fail.
Oh, Lily, did you know
That your baby boy
Would suffer 'fore he succeeds?
Oh, Lily, did you know
That your baby boy
Will be depended on by all?
Did you know --
Did you know --
That your baby boy
Will always need you near?
The sleeping child you're holding
Is the world's last hope.
Oh, Lily . . .
Lily, did you know?
Lily, did you know?
