8daysofhappyI didn't get tagged for eight days of happy, so I think I can make up any rules I like. For each of the next eight days, I'm going to pick a thing that makes me happy and post eight examples of it. These examples are not necessarily the best or my favourite -- etc, etc, disclaim, disclaim -- just the first eight I think of to share with you.
Day One: Fanvids
Oh, oh, fanvids! Pretty, pretty fanvids! In no particular order:
-- Stress by Sandy 'n Rache -- Stargate Atlantis: A deep, sensitive and nuanced character study of Rodney McKay.
-- You Can Call Me by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sdwolfpup -- Due South: This song fits Fraser and his two Rays so, so perfectly. (See this crit by minnow1212 for extra joy.)
-- I'm Your Man bycharmax -- Multifandom: For those of us who love women who love women. (It was so hard for me to pick just one of her vids.)
-- Bad Day bymamoru22 -- Die Hard 4.0: Because yes. Explosions and men looking at each other but not touching. (Talking of people who made it hard for me to pick just one vid.)
-- Wonderboy by Mexx -- Doctor Who: This is the Who I hold in my soul.
-- Circles bylaurashapiro -- The West Wing: But how can you vid The West Wing, Katy? Isn't it all about the snappy, snappy dialogue? How could any song capture the way the show sounds? But how?
-- One Night Fandoms bythingswithwings and eruthros -- Yuletide: I've tried to stick to vids that are accessible to non-fannish eyes, but this is my one nod in the direction of that whole other genre of viddish happy: love-letters to fandom.
-- Kryptonite byjmtorres -- Andromeda: Eight is far too few for all the vids I love, but I couldn't go without mentioning the first vid I ever saw. It still just plain thrills me every time I watch it. *hugs it*
(Grah! So many others I wanted to mention... On the plus side, if I can't think of another seven things that make me happy, I can definitely manage at least one more post of eight vids, probably two.)
