YES! FINALLY FOUND IT!!!

[rusty_armour]

I made the mistake of watching a certain Rupert Graves songvid and found I had "People Are Strange" (the Infected Mushroom Remix) stuck in my head all day. That was when I became obsessed with the need to have that song. I thought I would be able to find it easily on iTunes, but I had no luck there. In fact, I ended up searching for a couple of hours before I finally found an MP3 I could download. I'm sorry, jackycomelately. If you can find the song on iTunes (or anywhere else I can purchase it) then I will happily buy it. Really.

The sad thing is that the vid in which I first heard the song isn't that great. I mean, I like a lot of the V for Vendetta material, but the clips from Maurice (and those quick flashes from Sherlock) don't make any sense to me. It's as if the vidder just threw them in for kicks. Or maybe there's a story I'm just not following. I got the impression that maybe Maurice had turned into V, and the Maurice clips were meant to be flashbacks to a shared past between Dominic and V. However, most of the clips at the end of the vid have nothing to do with this possible love story, so I don't know. Still, I LOVE the song -- and Rupert, of course. *g*

"" (Watch on YouTube)

Besides, my, uh, questionable morals, Rupert is responsible for making me want to say things like "Despaireth!" and "Damn your eyes!" and "A plague on all our houses!" Okay, I'll admit that it might not have been a good idea to watch A Waste of Shame twice in the space of about four days -- after finishing the Sonnets, which I had to read after watching A Waste of Shame the first time. All the same, Mr. Graves has much to answer for.

I hadn't listened to People are Strange for a long time. I like this remix.

I've just watched a couple of Maurice videos on Youtube. I can understand your obsession with the boathouse and with Rupert Graves!

questionable morals Who's questioning them?!

I think "Damn your eyes!" and "A plague on all your houses!" are good things to say in everyday conversation. :o)

Oh, good! I'm glad I'm not the only person who likes the song as I can't stop listening to it. I'm not kidding. Okay, I can go for fairly long stretches of time (e.g. hours) without hearing it, but then I can't hold out any longer. *g*

*Produces a high-pitched squeal that only dogs can hear* Woo hoo! I'm happy you can understand my obsession with the boathouse and Rupert Graves after watching those vids on YouTube! For some reason, Maurice is extremely popular with Rupert Graves fans. I can't possibly think why... *g*

If you ever need some more Maurice, you might enjoy fengirl88's Lestrade/Maurice series. Here's her Maurice tag (http://fengirl88.livejournal.com/?skip=10&tag=maurice) that includes all these stories and a couple of other Maurice-related goodies. Oh, and here's a Maurice story (http://geoviki.livejournal.com/71479.html) I found on crack_van that I absolutely loved.

Uh, sorry. I get a bit carried away sometimes. You may have noticed. ;-)

LOL! Well, surprisingly, no one lately. Not that I know of, anyway. *g* In this case, I was referring to the song I downloaded for free.

Yes, I think they would be extremely useful in everyday conversation. I'm also very fond of "A pox on you!" and "heavens forefend!"
