Why this vid kicks ass:
My apologies for putting this rec out at the wrong time, but since I won't have internet access at the right time, I figured better early than never.
There is a terrible dearth of MfU vids, a miserable state of affairs that will hopefully change dramatically once the DVDs finally become available (DVDs, yay!), but that doesn't mean that there are none at all in existence. The best one, also by P.R. Zed, is Moscow Drug Club , which has already been recced. "Bohemian Like You" is a bit of a cheat because it's actually a multifandom vid (Starsky and Hutch, Due South, The Professionals and Man From UNCLE) but although Napoleon and Illya have to share screen time with all these other guys, it's still well worth watching because it's so funny and so cleverly done, picking out some absurdly slashy moments from the various shows (I come close to death-by-laughter every time we reach the shot where Hutch cooks Starsky dinner) and stringing them together in a storyline that's also an exercise in Compare & Contrast. One day MfU fandom will have lots and lots of vids all of its own, but until that day comes, it's well worth claiming this one.
This is it from me, folks. I've thoroughly enjoyed this reccing business, and I hope I managed to turn up at least one story you hadn't read before, or reminded you of forgotten loves. Happy holiday!
