VID REC: Sherlock Holmes - Song Title: Bad Day

[periwinkle27.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I didn't realize vid day was yesterday. I've been comatose in bed with an illness and didn't read my live journal. However, if the mods will allow it, I'd like to do a rec in memory of Jeremy Brett, the most recent Holmes, who passed away in 1995.

Vidder: STSGirl
Musical artist: Daniel Powter
Pairing: Holmes/Watson
Vidder on LJ: unknown
Vidder's website: N/A (look on YouTube for more videos)
Why this vid kicks ass:
It's hard to find a Sherlock Holmes video that does the actors and the series justice. Most of the vids are either replays of the TV show or tributes to Jeremy Brett for his brilliant portrayal of Holmes. This one, however, focuses on the friendship of the two men and Watson's concern when things don't go right for Holmes.

Thank you! I wanted something that showed Brett as Holmes, but I ddn't want to lose track of the partnershio. Most of the videos cover Brett's entire career and not just Holmes. And I like romantic stuff, and I know you do too.
Thanks for the feedback.
Oh, nice icon, btw.

You chose really well.

Oh, yes, romance is good.

You're welcome. In one respect H/W were my 'first' ever pairing, even though I had no idea that slash existed and I thought I was 'odd' to be having these very innocent really ideas about them being in love. It just came to me from reading the books, even though I knew that a lot of their behaviour (the arm-in-arm walking) the sharing rooms, the 'my dear Watson' was off the period, they just seemed 'right'.

I've really liked Holmes, in books or TV/film ever since.

Thank you. When I did my 12_stories challenge, H/W were one of the 12 pairings I wrote a story for; hence I made myself an icon for each pairing.

Wow, that was really lovely! It surprised me, some of the choices she made with the song, but it really worked.

I think some of the choices may have been based on what she had available.

If you are interested, she has a second Holmes video on You Tube
