The Simpsons!
This is a clip from one of my favourite simpson episodes; Homer's Phobia. Its when Homer takes Bart to a steel mill in an attempt to make him 'straight' but is confronted with a mill full of flamboyantly gay workers...oh homer, he makes me chuckle.

Just Jack-Starz In Their Eyes
I am currently loving this song. It's just such a cool little take on the music industry and our culture's celebrity obsession in general.

The L Word Season Two Promo Video
This video is really quite adorable, it's a promo for Season Two of The L Word, and it just breaks my heart as Tina ignores Bette...But Carmen coming up from under the covers and snuggling with Shane is just too damn cute!

The Killers, featuring Jezebelle!
The Killers, especially pour moi!
Just got back from seeing The Killers at the Bataclan, Paris.
Brakes were supporting, at first I was a little disappointed that it wasn't Howling Bells, but the singer's attempts to communicate with the french audience were quite sweet, consisting as they did of er, it was very sunny today, beaucoup de soliel! And Porcupine Or Pineapple was a winner.
And The Killers, well, what can I say...
Just amazing.And everything I'd read about Flowers being a shy frontman was completely disproved.
We'd heard that Glamorous Indie Rock and Roll wasn't on the setlist, as they hadn't played it anywhere else on this tour.
Rather unhappy with this state of affairs, me and my mates started singing it in one of the gaps between songs.And Brandon,wonderful Brandon, looked at us, then down at the floor, then went over to his spangly keyboards and played the intro.He stopped after a minute, cos naturally the band didn't have a clue what he was doing.He went over to Ronnie and spoke to him,and this time they played it,just for us!
After the first encore (when they played not one but three songs) we all started chanting "I've got soul but I'm not a soldier" and they came back and played All These Things That I've Done and Exitlude, then as the lights came up and we all stumbled out,What A Wonderful World came over the PA. A perfect night.
And here is that very special song...
More videos will follow soon!
Gravitation!
There are ten reasons why I am putting this up:
One: I'd rather watch youtube than work.
Two: I'm a sad slash freak who gets off on the Yaoi.
Three: I'm never gonna be able to afford Gravi on dvd, so I shall have to make to with the manga and fan-vids...
Four: Its the boys! In full colour! (see above)
Five: Songs about quasi-abusive relationships can be sexy.
Six: The split second shot of Hiro looking up from his yoghurt, to the lyrics "I toss and turn/I can't sleep at night".SEXY.Adds homoerotic undertones to the homoerotic overtones.
Seven: "Don't touch me please" as Yuki backs Shuichi into the corner...brings back all the confusion and frustration from the early tracks.
Eight: Bad Luck on stage! I must search around for that site where you can buy Bad Luck and Nittle Grasper t-shirts...
Nine: I need to get RJ to read the damn books so we can fangirl together.As of now, fangirl can officially be a noun and a verb.See "slag/to slag" and "scout/to be scouted".
Ten: I can't think of a tenth reason, but cummon, this video is great!
