Doctor Who vid recs - My favourites.

[starrylizard]

I haven't recced anything for ages, so have some Doctor Who recs. It's more than likely I've recced several or all of these at some time in the past, but I like them all that much that I really don't care! :)

Scattered by di_br
Song: "Map of the problematique" by Muse
This has been my number one favourite vid for ages. Just the sheer amount of work that would have gone into all the billion-ty clips. I have never seen such an amazingly fast paced vid that is so amazingly well times to the beat and also meaningful. There aren't really any fancy effects here, just perfectly timed fades, which, to me, makes it all the more awesome. I guess it's angsty action and it's wonderful!

Second to None by ageless_aislynn
Song: "Second to None" by Styles of Beyond featuring Mike Shinoda
This is one of my favourite vids and always makes me nostalgic for Nine and the original gang (Mickey, rose and Jack). It cheers me up when I'm feeling crappy and it is so nicely timed to the beat, but in a gorgeously silly way. (I think I friend-ed Ais over this very vid. Good times!) Wander over and make yourself smile. You won't regret it! :)

Handlebars by flummery
Song: "Handlebars" by Flobots
This vid is such a perfect character study of The Doctor (Ten). It goes from the light-hearted, care free side of the Doctor down into all the darkness in his life and way of living and how people get hurt. I don't know how to describe it, really, but it just works so well. It's like the lyrics were made for him and yet I doubt it ever would have occurred to me if I'd just heard the song. Genius! I've watched it at least ten times since I found it last week. :)

Prelude to War by hollywoodgrrl
Song: Drum music form the BSG Soundtrack by Bear McCreary
Of all the vids I've seen made for the series 3 finale, this (in my opinion) is the best one. I love it. And it's all of 30 seconds! The Master and his never ending drumbeat. :)

Pretty Woman by humansrsuperior
Song: "Pretty woman" by Roy Orbison
Best Donna vid ever! Perfect! :)

They by fahrbotdrusilla
Song: "They" by Jem
A wonderful episodic for Human Nature/Family of Blood to a song I love. The music has such a complicated beat to it and half the time I can't figure out how she hits it, but she does, which is just cool.

You're totally welcome! I really do love that one. The fast cuts and the voice over... It's aces! :)

Eeeeeee! Not only am I totally thrilled to get recced, I'm so tickled that it's for "Second To None" (which seemed to fall into the "I don't really know what to do with this" category for a lot of people, lol ;) ) AND I'm having a total "I'm not worthy!" [/Wayne's World] moment when I'm looking at the company you've got me in with! So a huge thank you all the way around! \o/

Aw, I believe you're right, that that was the first time we officially "met!" :D Yay for vids bringing people together! ;) :D *hugs* ♥♥♥!!!

Thank you for the awesome vid. Like I said, it always makes me smile and it (and you) are totally worthy of being in MY list. *smish*
