So I'm driving and I'm thinking: I need a song about Clark Kent. Actually, I thought this because I put in a CD mix that Dawn had made and "Learning to Fly" was the first song on it and it made me think about my current "to-vid" list and I realized that Clark is my first fandom crush in a while that came without his own song.
I have no vid in my head for Clark. None of the songs on
heres_luck's latest CD Mix (It's Bigger Than Hip-hop) will work. At least, I don't i>think any are about Clark ::mental note to relisten with Clark in mind::.
It isn't like I am just gonna start vidding Smallville tomorrow or anything - but I just feel like Clark should be on the list. George from "Dead Like Me" is on the list. Malcolm Reynolds - hell, he is on the list multiple times. Aeryn Sun is even on the list. I have a Highlander vid in my head that I love and what I haven't seen of Highlander is pretty much the complete series. I even have a "Jeremiah" vid in my head - and actually, I should probably send that song to
killabeez 'cause it is a great song and should most likely become a real, live vid and not just live in my head.
It's not as if I'm gonna make every vid song I have. I know this is impossible - but a long list is comforting. I know that I have ideas and even if I *can't* vid due to whatever kinda malaise I am experiencing at any given time - I still have ideas and there is something very calming about that. I hoard things. I am a packrat. Having stuff makes me feel more relaxed. This is just an extension of that.
So, I'm thinking that I probably already know this song - the song that will be about Clark and won't be "Learning to Fly" and I should just wait and it'll be there. But I don't like to wait. Microwave popcorn takes an eternity and I die a thousand deaths during hiatus and I will never know the virtue of patience. I will know the virtue of not throwing away Entertainment Weeklys from 1996 - just not patience.
So instead of waiting, I'm thinking the song I have for Connor would work for Clark as well. It could be about Clark - except Connor has lost so much and now I am gonna take his song and give it to the nice farmboy over there? That doesn't seem fair at all. Poor Connor. You know - I bet Clark could have saved him. Er...actually, probably not - but at least Clark could have contained him. Although, Angel did a good job with that - got to give him credit for containment. Yeah, Connor would have shown up in Smallville and it would have only been a matter of time before he'd start stalking Lana.
Although - it would be much more in character if he was stalking Martha. Yeah. Connor would so go for some Martha Kent. Also, someone could refer to her as a "hot Mom" and it would make me happy 'cause - according to The Boy - that is just one of the most embarrassing things ever.
And I ramble.
