So wondygal did the original fic version of this meme, which I had been planning to do for a while, but kept putting off because it is REALLY, REALLY difficult (I still plan to do it! Eventually!). But then I saw a fanvid-inspired variation, and wanted to occupy myself while HIMYM and Gossip Girl download. I - can't imagine anyone will want to read my crazy love-fueled vid rambling, but whatever, I ENJOY TALKING ABOUT THESE THINGS.

Pick your five ten all-time favourite fanvids, the ones which made you laugh or cry or kicked you in the guts, that inspired you to offer the vidder internets and first born sons, and tell us why you loved them. Any fandom, any pairing, any genre - the only requirement is they stood out from the crowd. Also, links or it didn't happen.

( Vid reccing magic! Vaguely in order of importance, but actually not really, because then it got too difficult and I got lazy. ALL OF THESE VIDS ARE EQUAL BUT SOME ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS. )


WELL THAT WAS EXTREMELY TIME CONSUMING. But fun! If any of you decide to do this, definitely link me in the comments, so I can check it out (I have given up on checking my f-list. IT IS LIKE DROWNING). ♥

Title: The Heart Was Rejected By the Host
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing: Doctor/Master
Spoilers/Warnings (if any): General series spoilers up to 3x13 "Last of the Time Lords".
Notes: bornbackwards requested a Doctor/Master mix, so here it is (er, I'm not really sure what's going on with the cover art. IT SEEMED LIKE A GOOD IDEA AT THE TIME)! The mix starts from when the Doctor and the Master were at the Academy on Gallifrey, and stretches to the S3 finale. Happy Christmas, Sheena. ♥ Enjoy! Comment if you download, and feel free to drop me a note if you only want one or two songs and I'll upload them for you ASAP.

(Also, my view on the Doctor and Master's youth was largely shaped by the ton of fanfic I consumed back when my Doctor Who obsession was at its prime, so I present to you what's basically morphed into my entire personal canon on the issue: the naming of things by ariastar. It's very, very lovely and totally worth a read even if you're not downloading this thing.)



( 16 songs in a .zip file + artwork and track listing under the cut )

sophieisgod, dollsome, AND, thisissirius have all requested music lately, and since sitting around and rifling through my iPod is one of my lame hobbies, I HAVE OBLIGED. Only, I never have any idea WHAT to upload for people, so this is basically just me going "HERE, HAVE SOME RANDOM LINKS, GUYS!!"

Albums
I listen pretty exclusively to female artists, but I know a lot of people on my f-list listen pretty exclusively to male artists SO THIS WORKS OUT PERFECTLY. Also, two OSTs I loved so much that I am sharing them too.

Made of Bricks - Kate Nash
My December - Kelly Clarkson
Little Voice - Sara Bareilles
Speak for Yourself - Imogen Heap

Once More With Feeling (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) OST
Torchwood OST

My Fanmixes
I always feel totally shameful pimping out my own stuff, but I love my mix playlists like PIE. And if there's an artist on there you particularly like, you can come and tackle me and I'll upload what I have of theirs!

I Will Be The Answer (At The End Of The Line) - Arthur/Merlin
She'll Steal Your Heart (To Save Her Skin) - Jenny Humphrey

~SUPER SPECIAL BONUS~
REMEMBER THIS? Um, I made a playlist just to give myself inspiration as I write, but I ended up turning it into a semi-ficmix (it's not exactly written around songs, so MAYBE IT IS JUST A FIC-BASED FANMIX?).

THAT'S RIGHT, I ENDED UP MAKING A MIX FOR A FIC THAT IS HALF UNWRITTEN, FOR A PAIRING I MADE UP. I AM RIDICULOUS. AS IS THIS MIX.

Dirty Mind - Jethro/Ben

( Track listing under the cut, though no art since my manip skillz are non-existent )

MY EPIC REVIEW OF DIS/CONNECTED. I'm typing as I watch, so there will probably be massive CAPSLOCK contained within.

( Dis/Connected - serious thoughts of seriousness ahead )

I HAVE TO WRITE JETHRO/BEN NOW. IT'S INEVITABLE.

ETA: Does anyone want me to upload this thing to MegaUpload? IT IS WORTH IT FOR THE FACES, GUYS. DONE.

OH, AND WHO HAS TWO THUMBS AND HER COMMENT NOTIFICATIONS BACK? THIS GIRL.

I would probably have a coronary if there was a US remake of Doctor Who or Torchwood, but I was bored in the wee hours of the morning and this was spawned. I HIGHLY ENCOURAGE YOU ALL TO MAKE YOUR OWN VARIATION.
Doctor Who/Torchwood Ladies US Recasting
(New Series)


( i should really be writing my history paper )

( Bones: Pilot )
( Doctor Who: Smith and Jones - The Shakespeare Code )
( Torchwood: Something Borrowed )

ETA: Point me to good Bones icon makers, please? THE ICONS, I WANTS THEM.

How is it that whenever I decide that I don't like Rose anymore she goes and does something completely and totally awesome and I fall in love with her all over again? WHY MUST YOU DO THIS TO ME ROSE? WHY? LET ME MAKE UP MY MIND ABOUT YOU ALREADY.

( mini rose tyler picspam from 'the idiot's lantern' - i wouldn't exactly call this spoilery, unless you really don't want to know what outfit rose is wearing )

Despite this being the longest picspam I've ever done, I actually don't ship Ten/Reinette. I just really love Sophia Myles. And also, the black and white coloring I did makes the episode look like an old B-movie. It's kind of fantastic.
