Saw this on Geoffrey Knight’s blog and just had to share. It’s 10,000 Maniacs when they performed “Because The Night” on MTV Unplugged.
Natalie Merchant’s voice always moves me. Still does. There’s just something so sensual and sexy about it. “Because the night belongs to lovers…” Enjoy!
This video is a teaser for an online soap opera-style series called Venice. Venice follows the life of a gay female interior designer. I just started watching the show this weekend.
I love this song. Not sure why, but it puts me in a gushy, romantic mood every time I hear it.

I just finished re-watching both seasons of The Magnificent Seven TV series on DVD, so I thought I would share a video. This series ran from 1998 to 2000 and was inspired by the film of the same name.
This show was a fav of mine back in the day. Gorgeous men willing to put their lives on the line to save innocent people…and each other. So much slashy goodness. The one and only fan fiction slash I’ve ever read (about any characters) was a short love scene between Ezra and Vin. I can’t recall who write it, but it was delicious.
Enjoy the video. It’s a compilation of Vin, Ezra, and Buck set to “Blaze of Glory” by Jon Bon Jovi. It’s a bit long and the quality’s not the best, but the guys are still great to watch.

Anyone else watch the show? Who was your favorite pairing? Come on, I know you all had dreams about these guys. Share.

The 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics are almost here, so I thought I’d share this video which combines Sarah McLachlan and figure skating. McLachlan (a Vancouver native) wrote “One Dream” to be use for the Olympics.
I admire these athletes. Amazing talent and beauty and they do it all on ice…which hurts like crazy if you fall on it, trust me.
I love the lyrics…
“And you know that you can make it
You’ve got the whole world in your hands
And you’ve spent a lifetime working for this moment
And you are shining
You’re all that you wanted to be”
Motivation for anyone with a dream. Beautiful song. Beautiful skating. Enjoy!

Have a great week!

Today I have two videos I wanted to share. They are both from Playing for Change. If you haven’t seen them yet, take a look. Very inspiring. I LOVE the concept, the music, the inspiration of it all. Here’s what the website says:
“Playing for Change is a multimedia movement created to inspire, connect, and bring peace to the world through music. The idea for this project arose from a common belief that music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people. No matter whether people come from different geographic, political, economic, spiritual or ideological backgrounds, music has the universal power to transcend and unite us as one human race. And with this truth firmly fixed in our minds, we set out to share it with the world.”

Have a good one,
