Fanvid: Unusual Way

[lindenharp]

Title: Unusual Way
Artist: lindenharp
Challenge: Winter Companion Summer Holidays 2
Prompt: oddity
Rating: PG
Pairing: Jack/Nine, Jack/Ten
Spoilers/Warnings: Spoilers for The Empty Child, The Doctor Dances, Boom Town, The Parting of the Ways, Utopia, The Sound of Drums, Last of the Time Lords, The Stolen Earth, Journey's End, The End of Time, Everything Changes. Warning for scenes of (temporary) death.
A/N: This is my first (completed) fanvid.  I did it for the July challenge at Winter Companions.  Now that the challenge is over, I can post it here.  The song is from John Barrowman's newest album, and I think it perfectly describes Jack's feelings about the Doctor.  Even if that isn't your 'Ship, it's worth listening to just to enjoy a beautiful song and JB's amazing voice.

Just wanted to say, even after seeing it for the umpteenth time, this video blows me away.

beautiful song and gorgeous video

for me that song can be equally applied to Jack/Ianto - I'm not good at videos, I did a little song fic and yeah, I can see how this works for the Doctor and Jack

I can see that. In fact, when I did a test search on Google Videos to make sure my vid was public, I came across two other fanvids that used that song. One was Jack/Ianto. The other was Doctor/Jack, which was an annoying discovery, but (she said modestly) I think mine is better.

I didn't watch the J/I vid, as I don't 'ship that pairing. I like both characters, I read and enjoy fic about them, I accept their relationship as canon, but it isn't a focus for me as it is for other people... like you! And that's okay. :-)

I have this sudden vision for an icon: a picture of our beloved omnisexual Captain looking very sad, and the caption: "Shipping wars make Jack Harkness cry".

Can't have Jack crying! and I can see the attraction of Jack/Doctor but it's not where my heart lies

Variety is the spice of life as I see it (that said I ignore Jack/Gwen fics/anything)

I don't 'ship' doctor/jack but for some reason in the absence of Rose I kind of think it would be good for jack and the doctor to be together whether it be in a romantic situation or not. This was a lovely vid and the song beautiful

Thank you! I'd never heard this song before I bought JB's album, but it is very moving and beautifully performed.
