Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Me too, Betsy. Course, I like the lyrics on, uh, whatever album of his that is I have better than the ones in the covers I've heard.

I will say my favorite vid of all time is the Firefly Out of Gas one to Hallelujah, but on the other hand it was really the first time I'd really paid attention to the song.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Oh, I like Cohen's Hallelujah too--not on Oh So Pretty grounds, but because, understandably, he gets it. Wainwright's just feels pretty to me. Buckley's is, if anything, prettier, but has a desolation about it that works very well.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

John Cale's version is my fave.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I pretty much always think the Leonard Cohen version of his songs is the best version, with the exception of Judy Collins' Suzanne.

Thrive to spite them

Shrift I saw that in your lj, I just forgot to comment.

Thank you so much!

I have downloaded a couple vids as soon as they came up on lj. Including the BSG vid "Proud", which killed me and now I'm going to have to start watching the show.

Also, I need to figure out how to see Jerimiah, because the vids make it look interesting.

I just can't handle Leonard Cohen's voice, I feel bad about saying that because I felt the same way about Jeff Buckley's at first. I bought a cd based on my enjoyment of Evil Angel (after seeing Lum's Darla vid) and Hallelujah, but then at first couldn't listen to the whole thing in one sitting. But now I like his voice. Maybe that will happen with Cohen

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Word word word.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Nods. (Thanks, Theo!)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Hee!

If there were never any more vidding, there would still be one great masterpiece in it that we could point to to show what it could do.
