Vid bunnies gnawing at me

[valarltd]

So, I'm working on my premiere vid for VividCon. It's definitely going in the "stupid, braindead idiot" category. There is no metaphor. There are no layers. It's just a pretty straightforward 1:1 song:movie matchup. I'm just going for the humor. I feel like I shot my wad on the SIX FREAKIN MINUTE Mad Max vid for Club Vivid.

Then, as I drive to work, listening to my mp3 disc, it hits me:
The All Mad-Mark vid should not be to "Veteran of the Psychic Wars" but to "Boys of Bedlam."



Boys of bedlam

For to see mad Tom of Bedlam
Ten thousand miles I'd travel
Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes
For to save her shoes from gravel

Chorus
Still I sing bonnie boys, bonnie mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonnie,
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money

(this would be very similar to Veteran of the Psychic Wars, giving us Arkham Asylum, and possibly going all anime, using Harley as Mad Maudlin and Mr. J as Tom o' Bedlam...)

The Slipstream verse
I went down to Satan's kitchen--the glider-stop diner
For to get me food one morning--Byron
And there I got souls piping hot--fight scenes
All on the spit a-turning--firest enclave

Still I sing bonnie boys, bonnie mad boys--second enclave
Bedlam boys are bonnie, --third enclave
For they all go bare and they live by the air (fight in glider)
And they want no drink nor money (Kablooey)

The Midnight Ride verse

Me staff has murdered giants--polaroid and puppy eyes
And me bag a long knife carries--havoc
For to cut mince pies from children's thighs--more havoc
With which to feed the fairies--the keychain eye

Chorus
Still I sing bonnie boys, bonnie mad boys--the ambulance
Bedlam boys are bonnie,--the shock treatment
For they all go bare and they live by the air--the fight
And they want no drink nor money--the elevator


The Body Bags verse
This spirit's white as lightning--est. religiousity
Would on me travels guide me--accident, new eye
The moon would shake and the stars would quake--nightmare Twiggy
When ever they espied me--images of the dead

Chorus
Still I sing bonnie boys, bonnie mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonnie,
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money --messy death

The RotJ verse
And when that I have murdered
The man in the moon to a powder
His staff I'll break and his dog I'll shake
And there'll howl no demon louder--kablooey

Chorus
Still I sing bonnie boys, bonnie mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonnie,
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money --yanked away from visions

(musical interlude)--various clips

The Trickster verse
For to see mad Tom of Bedlam
Ten thousand years I'd travel
Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes
For to save her shoes from gravel

(Ends with straight jacket.)




Now THAT would make a great premiere vid.
But I need to see if I can still capture VHS source.

Bunny has gotten me watching Winx Club, and I'm really enjoying it.
Alfea is the girls' school for fairies. Red Fountain is the boys' school for heroes. Cloud Tower is the girls' school for witches. Riven is the bad boy of Red Fountain. I mentally slash him with Prince Sky (who is our heroine, Bloom's, boyfriend). Of couse, there's the Musa/Flora girl thing. And the Icy/Darcy/Stormy OT3

Bunny want to dress as Icy for the next con. Not having much luck finding a good google pic. Since it was Icy or Stella, we opted for the one without wings.
