I don't suppose there's a vid out there, that heavily features scenes from Not Fade Away, and is set to Closing Time?
I know who I want to take me home. I know who I want to take me home. I know who I want to take me home. Take me home...
Oh! I know this one! 'Slaying entails certain sacrifices, blah blah blahbity blah, I'm so stuffy, gimme a scone.'

Cindy, give it time. The good vidders take weeks or months.
The bad vidders?
Well, let's not go there. A bad vid is as painful to watch as a bad story is to read.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Cindy, the Leonard Closing Time, or some other song with that name?

love's a dream you enter though I shake and shake and shake you
Heh. Cohen's "Closing Time" song is perfect:
I just don't care what happens next
looks like freedom but it feels like death
it's something in between, I guess

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Can we also have a vid to "I'm only happy when it rains"?
Ta, ever so.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
And later has meaningless sex with a bottle-blonde vamp in an alley
I realized recently that this is the image in my head when I think of s.6. This may have been the lowest moment.

Lower than the Bronze sex?

Cindy, the Leonard Closing Time, or some other song with that name?
Green Day. Or possibly Semisonic. Or both. I disremember, and can find both bands cited, but can't find a writing credit. It goes:
Closing time
Open all the doors
And let you out into
The world.
Closing time
Turn off all
The lights on over
Every boy and every girl.
Closing time
One last call for alcohol
So finish your whiskey or beer.
Closing time
You don't have to go home
But you can't stay here.
(CHORUS:) I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home...
take me home.
Closing time
Time for you to go out
To the places
You will be from.
Closing time
This room won't be open till
Your brothers or sisters come.
So gather up your jackets
Move into the exits.
I hope you have found your friend.
Closing time
Every new beginning comes from
Some other beginning's end,
Yeah...
(CHORUS)
Closing time
Time for you to go out to
The places you will leave from.
(CHORUS)
Closing time
Every new beginning comes
From some other beginning's end
I just googled "Closing Time Leonard Cohen" to see what his was (or if he originally wrote the one I was thinking of), and it's different (but ya know, it would also be a pretty interesting Angel vid, especially this bit)
I loved you for your beauty
but that doesn't make a fool of me:
you were in it for your beauty too
and I loved you for your body
there's a voice that sounds like God to me
declaring, declaring, declaring that your body's really you
And I loved you when our love was blessed
and I love you now there's nothing left
but sorrow and a sense of overtime
and I missed you since the place got wrecked
And I just don't care what happens next
looks like freedom but it feels like death
it's something in between, I guess
it's CLOSING TIME
Is there a vid for that?
Cindy, give it time. The good vidders take weeks or months.
I think I'm easy (I haven't watched many, don't have sound hooked up to the PC right now, anyhow). I wish I'd seen your typo.
ION, someone is grilling steaks somewhere nearby and it's making me hungry. We're having pizza, because our grill did not survive the move, and I haven't shopped, and this was a week from hell. Heh. I guess I could set a vid of me sitting idly in my kitchen, refusing to cook, to "Closing Time" too.
