Order | Vid Title | Vidder(s) | Fandom | Artist | Runtime | Why I chose it |
1 | Summer of 69 | Trelkez | Doctor Who | Bryan Adams | 03:05 | Originally a drawer vid that I was convinced to take out and dust off for a con, now one of my favorites. |
2 | 9 to 5 | Trelkez | Supernatural | Dolly Parton | 02:36 | The truest tale of Castiel I could ever tell. |
3 | Papa Don't Preach | Trelkez and Eunice | Doctor Who and Torchwood | Madonna | 03:09 | A lesson from 2008 about what can happen when friends enable one another. |
4 | Shake It Off | Trelkez | Slings & Arrows | Taylor Swift | 02:33 | Haters gonna hate, so love what makes you you. |
5 | Tubthumping | Trelkez and sisabet | Thor | Chumbawamba | 03:18 | In which I ship Steve/Thor, sisabet brings a boatload of Loki, and all of Thor's friends are alive! |
6 | Inside Out | Trelkez | Can't Hardly Wait | Eve 6 | 03:30 | From the music to the cameos, a little slice of 1998. |
7 | Take It Off | Trelkez | Multi | The Donnas | 02:32 | Dominant women asserting themselves and delighting in their own sexual agency. Also, some dudes. |
8 | Bang Bang | Trelkez | Bitch Slap | Jessie J, Ariana Grande, Nicki Minaj | 03:15 | A real celebration of breasts, water fights, and women with enormous weapons. |
9 | Trouble for Me | Trelkez | Haven | Britney Spears | 03:05 | So many slash tropes packed into one pairing! |
10 | Let's Misbehave | Trelkez | White Collar | Elvis Costello | 01:55 | My first OT3 vid! The motion timing in this remains deeply satisfying to me. |
11 | Ask | Trelkez | Starter for Ten | The Smiths | 02:29 | One of James McAvoy's most on point disaster bisexual roles to date, aka that movie where Howard Stark misses the boat on banging Charles Xavier and Rebecca Hall reaps the spoils. |
12 | Emotion | Trelkez | Parks and Recreation | Destiny's Child | 03:03 | "Do you think a depressed person could make this? No!" When a human disaster and a hypercompetitive overachiever fall in love. |
13 | All the Way | Trelkez | Invisible Man | Lou Rawls | 02:08 | Not a LKBV, and yet given the history of the original vid idea by Zen as part of the origin story of LKBV-as-concept, the most purely LKBV vid I will ever make. |
14 | I'll Never Break Your Heart | Trelkez | Merlin | The Backstreet Boys | 02:31 | Gwaine just wants you to give him a CHANCE to be the boyfriend you DESERVE, Merlin. |
15 | What About Love | Trelkez | Youngblood | Heart | 03:31 | "The hockey puck is love! DON'T THROW IT AWAY, ROB LOWE!" - danegen |
16 | It's All Coming Back To Me | Trelkez | Captain America (comics) | Celine Dion | 04:55 | This vid is the wholly earnest contents of my comics fan soul, and I wasn't at all horribly embarrassed when it appeared on io9. (Ahem.) Before the MCU, I angsted terribly over one (1) Marvel OTP. (The credits say "as sung by" because this vid premiered at VividCon Karaoke and I appear to have lost the file without the karaoke credits! sisabet, Cappy, and Pipsqueak are good, but they do not sing this audio file.) |
17 | I Swear | Dualbunny, Trelkez, sweetestdrain, pipsqueaky | Smallville | All4One | 04:19 | A lesson from 2011 about what can happen when it's your friend's birthday and all she wants is for Clark Kent to -- well, if you don't know, I won't spoil it. The con premiere of this vid remains the most surreal experience of my life to date. |
