Probably nothing y'all haven't seen a million times, but I'm enjoying my newest fandom thoroughly! Also, a slight warning: this vids are pretty much all using the exact same footage. Personally, I don't care a bit - I could watch those boys flirt and kiss all day long - but it might get a bit repetitive if you watch them all at once.

Oblivious - Really nicely done, perfect song. Jack really IS oblivious sometimes.

Mr. Wonderful - I heart this song! It pretty perfectly describes my feelings toward John (ooh look, we're on a first name basis! That's like the second base of fangirling!).

Naked - This vid takes the footage and infuses it with even MORE sex than it originally had in the show, and that's no small feat!

Mr. Jones and Me - OMG what a perfect song! *loves*

Also, when I was browsing vids, I TOTALLY got spoiled for a scene in a late S2 episode I haven't watched yet, and all I can say is...HOLY FUCK I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY LET THAT AIR, BUT THANK YOU FOREVER TO WHOEVER DID! I literally DID NOT BELIEVE IT WAS A REAL SCENE...until I watched it about a dozen times over. Yep. It's real!

And now for my musing:

I feel like I always am attracted to a fandom or pairing because of the gorgeous, flashy, cocky one: Dean, Jack, House. And I do love those characters - I really, really do. But over time, I end up falling just as hard for their other halves, the quieter ones who turn out to be just as interesting and awesome and pretty as - and often even MORE complex than - their louder counterparts: Sam, Ianto, Wilson. I bet I could come up with other examples as well if I wasn't so damn tired. Interesting parallelism, no?

It makes me glad that Sam'n'Dean get pretty equal screen time, because I'm always pining for more Ianto and Wilson. *sigh*

ETA: TORCHWOOD IS PROVING TO BE VERY BAD FOR MY WRITING. IF I LOSE NANO, I'M LAYING THE BLAME DIRECTLY ON FANDOM. HOW THE FUCK IS IT FIVE AM ALREADY?

Made with Windows Movie Maker

Notes:

There's totally a story that goes with this vid, but I've decided to keep it to myself for now. Suffice it to say that the vid is somewhat AU and I used a rather broad definition of the word "alone." The process was really fun, and I'll definitely be trying it again!

Also...as much as I tried to clean it up, there are a few extra frames here and there in between shots. I apologize for those. I'll have to give myself a little more wiggle room next time - damn WMM!

Yay!

I am making a fanvideo. This is really incredibly exciting. For the longest time, Windows Movie Maker wouldn't open on my computer. A few months ago, I had to do a complete system restore, and when I got everything up again, WMM was suddenly working. I know it's about the worst video editing software out there, but I'm not going to spend money on a hobby I haven't even tried out yet.

I hadn't really been inspired to give vidding a try until my awesome friend [livejournal.com profile] chez_amanda burned me a copy of a J2 fanmix she made. It had "Alone" by Heart on it. I couldn't stop listening. The song is just awesome, and I love it for the boys. So, finally, I decided that a vid needed to be made.

It was a HUGE pain in the ass getting everything downloaded, installed, and set up so I could rip, convert, and edit clips from my SPN DVDs. But, at long last, it works! I have successfully created 33 seconds of a fanvid! Yeah, WMM does indeed suck, and yeah, it's going to take me an age and a day to get through all the hours of SPN I want to take clips from. But I am SO DAMN HAPPY right now that it doesn't even matter.

Fandom is AWESOME, and getting to contribute to it in a whole new way is ESPECIALLY awesome!

I'm almost embarrassed to be making this list, but I'm going to do it anyway.

Sometimes, when I've had a bad day, I like to go on YouTube and listen to the craziest music I can find. It's usually accompanying anime fanvids, which really only makes it better. There no pick-me-up better than some good crack!

And thus, for future reference, my list of crazy, cracked-out, feel-good music - now with links!

31 songs under the cut... )

I'm even weirder than you thought, right? Yeah. I know.
