Elijah Wood tweeted the link to this video yesterday and I've been meaning to post it: The joy of books.
This is truly magical. :-)

Dear Murray Gold,
you are clearly awesome. And also, please record the piano version sometime, okay? And I love your dorky face.
I kind of always figured was much older though and less...dorky O.o

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. (No, really)
This was posted yesterday. Yesterday. Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levit performing a song together. My life, it is complete at last.
YESTERDAY. And OMG, I love Zooey and her music anyway but I had no idea Joseph Gordon-Levitt had such a lovely voice (and mad guitar skills)!!! I wish they'd record something. Their voices go so well together. OMG. I'm in love.
(And thanks for The Man Of the Hour, namely my brother, who found this and sent me the link instantly :D )

Happy Holidays!
Thank you to every one who wrote me Christmas cards--it is all very appreciated and put lots of smiles on my face. As every year, with my job being particularly stressful around this time of the year, I failed to send out cards again and I'm very sorry for that. But I love you all, and I hope you have a very lovely Christmas.

OH. MY. GOD.
OH. MY. GOD. OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD.
I LITERALLY SAT THERE GOING "OH GOOOOOOD!" AND YELLING AT MY SCREEN EVERY OTHER SECOND WHILE WATCHING THIS. OH MY GOD. BILBO! AND IT'S MY BILBO AND MARTIN IS PERFECT AS BILBO JUST LIKE I THOUGHT AND THORIN IS FANTASTIC AND...EVERYTHING!!! AND THE DWARF SONG WHICH IS SO DARK AND GLOOMY AND SO DIFFERENT FROM THE HOBBIT AND ELVEN STUFF WE'VE HEARD IN THE OTHER FILMS. THE SCENERY. GANDALF. THE DWARVES. ELVES. RIVENDELL. THE MUSIC. OH MY GOD
I...I don't even. I was actually tearing up while watching this. I'M COMING HOME TO MIDDLE-EARTH!
(THERE AREN'T ENOUGH CAPSLOCK AND EXCLAMATION MARKS IN THE WORLD TO EXPRESS HOW HAPPY THIS TRAILER MAKES ME.)

Every time someone mentions Thanksgiving to me, this is the first thing I think of.
One of these days I will watch past 2x10 or whatever episode I last saw. *nods firmly*

Awesomecakes.
(Thank you roadrunner1896 for linking me to this :p Did you see? There's a bit of Russel Tovey in it!)
This is win on more levels than I can currently count :-) Doctor Who really has the most adorable cast and crew. Bless them.
My brother still needs to get caught up with season three and four, so after seeing this video I actually watched 3x11 with him yesterday, even though season three is my least favourite by far (except for the final episodes which have the genius hat is John Simm).
I even have a Ten & Donna icon still. W00t.

The Steps of St. Paul's - Talis Kimberley
When I read these lyrics for the first time a few days ago, I went, "Whoa." Since then Talis has made a recording of the song and it has been put on YT and I do hope that somehow, it will spread. I normally don't voice my opinion on politics as it always feels that though I do try to keep up I know too little to allow myself an "open" opinion, but this song really struck a chord with me..
This song is directed to England which is why I've been hesitant to share these lyrics, brilliant as they may be, because as much as I love Britain, I'm not a Brit. Having listened to the song quite a few times now, though, I feel like in this case "England" could easily be substituted with a Western country of your choice and that really, this song concerns us all.
Lyrics & Free Download. I also hear that the "Dah-dit-dit" bit is morse code for "BBC".

Look! The film that Spielberg is only making for me has a new trailer out! This time with bonus Benedict Cumberbatch and stuff!
See, my head is telling me, "That is one cheesy trailer." Or that's what it would be telling me if my inner seven-year old wasn't yelling FLAWLESS FLAWLESS FLAWLESS FLAWLESS HORSES MUSIC BOY AND HIS HORSE BAWL BAWL BAWL at me. That trailer pushes so many of my buttons I don't even. It's like they combined Lassie Come Home and Black Beauty and sprinkled Seabiscuit all over it. In other words: I choked up just watching that trailer and will probably be a complete mess once I've actually seen the whole thing. The trailer looks just beautiful. The cinematography. The music. It's so very old-school Spielberg.

The Darkest Hour
The BBC has put up this trailer for the season premiere which is tomorrow (!!!). Alas, I'll have to wait until Sunday evening until I can watch it because I'm at FilkCON but I do loooove this teaser. Which will make the wait even worse. Curses :)
I love this show. I can't help it. :-) ( OMG SPOILER )
In other news: my nose remains stuffed and my throat sore. Yay. NOT.

Random Post.
Alan Menken has created quite a few wonderful tunes for Disney in his career, but I think this piece from Tangled is one of my absolute favourites. Particularly the bit that starts around min 1:05. It just makes me want to get up and dance, which I guess is the point, so well done, Sir :-)

Return to Downton Abbey
Downton Abbey season two trailer.
The show returns in less than two weeks! I'm so looking forward to it; I would probably watch this for the cast alone. Luckily, it's a really excellent show, too :D
The song used in this is Scala's lovely cover of With Or Without You, by the way. I'm usually not a big fan of covers, but Scala's rather quiet and subtle choir arrangements are just lovely. It's such an amazing choice of music for the trailer, too.

SHERLOCK SEASON 2 CLIPS.
OMG. JUST BRIEF ONES. BUT. BUT.
I'm mildly confused, though. I thought season two was moved to 2012? And usually the BBC doesn't release previews or trailers until like, the last possible moment O.o So what's this?
In any case. OMG. CAN'T WAIT.
(Thanks toroadrunner1896 for the heads-up.)

"It's just the way we feel"
For some reason, I thought "Fascination" was at least twenty years old. Turns out it's actually from 2008. Oops. I just saw the video for the first time; it's so sweet and colourful.
Anyways. I love this song. It always makes me want to get up and dance. If you're not tapping your feet by the time the chorus sets in, there's possibly something wrong with you.
Speaking of dancing,charmax used this song for her brilliant Billy Elliot fanvid. It's actually where I first heard it.
