CosmicCalvalcade has been up to some shenanigans again:
I love this idea! It got me thinking about all sort of incongruent pop song-MM videos. For some reason I kept thinking Lady Gaga's telephone with brass telephone bells and telegraphy gear. Oooh, or Dance with Me by Justin Timberlake with all William's dance fails. But I digress.
I do wish there was less talking head clips and more action clips. Canada Please is still your masterpiece, CC!
Have already written Lucy with a plea for a video forum, so as not to clog the Shipper lanes.

In honor of videos and my favorite constable...

Not a big fan of the particular song, but I have to give some credit for creativity, lol.

OMG that's great!!!! I've never seen it before, either! Thank you!
Great choice of song, too. That mod/historic juxtaposition can be brilliant sometimes. XD

Not a big fan of the particular song, but I have to give some credit for creativity, lol. What song would you choose? XD One of my problems (and I put the stress on *my* problem) with MM videos is they make use of a current whiny hard-country style which I've been on my knees praaaaaaaaaaaaaaying will go away because that music literally gives me a migraine. I much prefer downbeat, relaxing, if not outright acid lounge music. But for some reason earlier 90s pop songs, though they may be inane, don't bother me. And there are a couple that almost always make good fan vids like Haddaways "What is Love?", Alice Cooper's "Poison" or Madonna's "Frozen". Ever see a bad fan vid made with Frozen? Thought not. Don't think it can be done. Brain tangent launched. If anyone wants to do a really moody/creepy MM video, they might try using this: youtu.be/UAXqD9CIzyA - but they would have to cut it so it starts at 1:40 or later because it's just a lot of techno junk before then. But it's Depeche Mode, so it's basically musically constructed with beats to make a good video. I like this version (this particular song has over 9,000 remixes) because it's so utterly soulless. I would call it the "William Just Threw Julia Away and Is Staring at the Ceiling Instead of Getting On the Next Train to Buffalo Remix". |

Found a quirky little tribute to George/Tess:

Haha, love the George and Tess vid! They are so cute together!  Unfortunately, snacky, I'm one of those people with horrid taste...I love country music and have an affinity for swing/big band. So something from one of those genres would be up my alley for an MM video. |

So something from one of those genres would be up my alley for an MM video. I'm not talking about country-country music, though you may like what I'm talking about as well. This is a mix of hard rock and country music, which gets on my last nerve. But mostly when I listen to music I just need to zone out and imbibe aural opium: my Pandora is tuned to the Telepopmusik channel 99.9% of the time. Ps. Though I admire CosmicCavalcade's taste in music, the above is not about taste so much as it's about the way I use music to chill out. XD If I were using music to hook up with guys or to party on, it would be a whole other thing I'm sure. |

When chilling out, the older the music, the better for me. I wonder if/when MM will address pop music during the turn-of-the-century. Sheet music had already created popular songs by that time, and the advance of the phonograph/gramophone was making connections in the music industry that had never before been possible. |

It cracked me up when Ruby dissed Julia's taste in music. I wonder what she listens to. Was ragtime the "it" thing? I'm ready for MM to exploit Yannick's singing voice with something like a Christmas carol. XD I wonder if Julia can sing. Before the coming of the gramophone, and radio of course, the major evening entertainment was gathering around the piano and singing. If Julia can't carry a tune in a bucket, she'd probably go to hilarious lengths to hide it. XD |

Wouldn't it be great if one of our beloved characters secretly had the voice of an angel?!
Maybe Julia would have to pull a "Singing in the Rain" if she tried to hide her voice, lol.

Well we know she can pull off a bowler hat, a la Cabaret. XD I'd really like to see that look come back. In fact, surrealism-wise, I wonder just how much William dreams of being punished by Julia in bowler hat...  |
