If I Was Your Girl by Danegen - you know, I really--all that is canon? Really?

*blows out breath* Yeah. That was good for me. Special note for 1:16 on for that very, very, very special sequence of events.

No, really. He watches Arthur that much? And I don't even--with the sword? And the--you know, I don't even know what to do with that. I mean, I know what to do with that, that's why I'm a damned fanfic writer but since QaF, I've had to use a lot more imagination than say, canon events.

Hey, rec me vids? Already drooled over Red (God) and Elemental and Bitch (most. appropriate. ever). More direction, please? I think there were others, but can't remember for sure. I can watch again! I am okay with that!

I haven't gotten into Merlin myself, but

penknife had a list of comms and what to find on them on her journal the other day.

Come to teh dark side. We have canonical soulbonding and Arthur armed a lot.

::watches vid::

Um, dear god.

I've been reading the fic but haven't had a chance to watch the DVDs a friend burned for me. Obviously, that must change as soon as possible.

::re-prioritizes week-end tasks::

::goes to watch vid again::

I HAVE WATCHED TI ALL BUT I DO NOT REMEMBER THAT MUCH ~~STALKING~~ LOOKING YOU KNOW?

And 1:16....

I don't even know what to do with that.

I am slowly being pimped into this, and thus I made

phnelt make with the vid recs and lo, she is very, VERY good at it. Here. (http://phnelt.livejournal.com/10795.html)

Thank you! *bounces*

There's two Bitch vids that I know of. Fabella's early on The Bitch Prince (Angel Undercover Mix) (http://wistful-fever.livejournal.com/202948.html) is the one that inspired my icon.

giandujakiss's Beverly Hills (http://giandujakiss.livejournal.com/647360.html) -- HEE!!!!

Love. So. Much.

My favorite = 10,000 Nights of Thunder (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaDvWxa4WhE)

Seconded!

Maybe you've seen Only in my Mind (http://lightofshadows6.livejournal.com/18263.html) already, but such a delicious mixture of hot and pretty and angst is worth watching more than once!

Those eyes. *fans self*

...just how did I not notice Merlin's like, a legal stalker?

500 Miles (http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=Hdw5pL_ZLOs) by the incomparable

suzvoy is always fun.

I was going to rec you the insane Christmas one with 11 verses of an increasingly insane Arthur and putting up the lights ... but apparently it's been removed. So sad.

Oooh. Thank you!

It's always fun when the only explanation you can possibly come up with for what goes on in canon is, "The two male leads are in love with each other."

And it may be on YouTube, but I'm really very fond of this vid: Everything You Want (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynWHFJthR2U), simply for articulating one of the best bits of Merlin: we have got a talking dragon as the biggest slash fangirl EVER.

Also, there is

cherryice's Unsteady Ground (http://cherryice.livejournal.com/223867.html), which covers much the same topic as Red, but this time from Morgana's POV. It feels--well, as much as it's from Morgana's POV, it feels like it's from us fans as well, all of us hoping desperately that our happy, slashy show does not turn into the tragedy we all know is coming.

Ack, you just beat me to it on Unsteady Ground! That vid is just sdjfhahkjhjd, and it is the entirely necessary coda to Red.

Those poor, poor kids.

Both of nel's vids so far are awesome, but Something in the Wind is PARTICULARLY AWESOME :D :D :D

You can find both of them here (http://nel-ani.livejournal.com/tag/vids).

No, really. He watches Arthur that much?

Not quite, sadly. Some of those shots are just very cleverly cut.

But the sword stuff is canon from what I can tell!

There's two vids I really like that I haven't seen mentioned, both by

solanyxe.

Popular - an AU where Merlin is willing to sleep his way to the top. :-)

and Rescue Me - Arthur finds out about Merlin's magic.

I've saw both these brilliant vids and I thank you for reccing them! :D

I watched that video going oh my GOD Merlin how are you such an ACTUAL CREEP. I loooove it.

GOD I KNOW. I want to set his scariness love to Placebo or Garbage or something. I mean--my God, Merlin.

I, uh, was worrying that perhaps I was the only person who had this...definite a reaction, shall we say. My. Yes indeed. Definitely worth a re-watch or two. Though perhaps not on the Metro on the evening commute. *cough*

ETA: I haven't run across Bitch--would you have a link handy?

Kind of totally rocks, yes?

I LOVE this vid! I've even saved it to my hard drive (which is a big deal cause i normally don't save vids at all)!

And the bedroom scene was brilliant! And the sword fondling and guh!

Do you have the download link?

gweneiriol.livejournal.com - Date: 2009-01-24 10:02 pm (UTC) - expand

... T_T imeem hates me. Is there a download available somewhere??

Also, I definitely need to rec 7 Things (http://voldything.livejournal.com/151969.html), which is much too short but fills my need for quick reminders of how much I love Arthur and how much Merlin does too, Girlfriend (http://simply-luriem.livejournal.com/671.html#cutid1), which is hilarious, and Beverly Hills (http://www.giandujakiss.com/index.php?set=videos&video=113), which I can't even describe the awesome of. =D

Fanvid: Every Fear You've Ever Faced by

the_orange_nin, the only vid, I think, I have watched as much as Red.

In Praise of a Vulnerable Man by

elandrialore , one of my earliest arthur vids, and still one of the most beloved one.
Only second to Red.

All that I am by

brightsidesp, gorgeous song, and even better editing.

So Macho (http://dingogrrl.livejournal.com/495273.html) by

dingogrrl makes me grin wildly:)

*flails* No really, all that is canon? I got half way through and I couldn't take it anymore. I might just have to watch this damn show, and I don't usually go for pretty boys.

Do you have links to those vids?

Go here (http://phnelt.livejournal.com/10795.html?style=mine). I think they are all there, along with the recs in comments here.

YES WATCH THE SHOW. THE DRAGON IS A YENTA. I AM NOT KIDDING. HE TALKS AOBUT THEIR COIN-NESS AND EPIC DESTINY.

It's kind of scary. MERLIN'S MOM TALKS ABOUT THIS, OKAY? MERLIN'S MOM. JUST. MY GOD.

That's why he goes bad, you know -- all the good people hit him on the head or try to shoot him and constantly mistrust him, while there's this vast cohort of minions saying, We wouldn't hurt you, Lex, and we'll give you power and greatness and oh so much sex...

Obi-Wan has a sort of desperate, pathetic patience in this movie. You can just see it in his eyes: "My padawan is a psychopath, and no one will believe me; I'm barely keeping him under control and expect to wake up any night now to find him standing over my bed with a knife!"
