Workouts, Secret Message to Mustang Sally, Potterdamerung

I slept late, but I managed to wedge the Who workout in. Hopefully, since we're between seasons of Who and before Potterdamerung, I can get through LJ before I have to leave for work.

The Doctor Who Workout Mix
1) Walk of Life (Billie Piper) In addition to the Billie connection, I've always felt that the lyrics really sum up the Doctor's invitation to join Team TARDIS

2) Song for Ten (Murray Gold) This is the short episode clip and not the long piece from the album, as I wanted the mix to come in under 30 minutes.

Those two are fairly slow, but then we ramp into:

3) Don't Bring Me Down (ELO) I don't like Mr Blue Sky, and this has a great beat

4) Integral (Pet Shop Boys) The perfect cyberman song. Yes, I know I just transposed Love & Monsters and Age of Steel, but the beat climbs upward this way

5) Love Don't Roam (Murray Gold) Full album cut

6) UNIT's Theme (Murray Gold) I love this music! I put it here for "UNIT is taking over/since Britain elected an ass."

And then, inevitably:

7) Voodoo Child (Rogue Traders)

8) I Can't Decide (Scissor Sisters) A much-needed cooldown, as Rogue Traders was making my legs cramp!

25 minutes and 25 seconds; 1.34 miles on the treadmill

[Poll #1022966]

People are getting more into spoiler discussions about Harry Potter. Now, everyone on the f-list has been absolutely grand about cutting and spoiler-warning, which I deeply, deeply appreciate. It's just that the urge to click is warring with my noble intentions to abstain and remain pure until Friday midnight (at which point I have every intention of reading the last page by sonic screwdriver light as I walk back to the car, but that's different. Really.)

... although I've never minded spoilers before...

...and with the yard sale (COME TO MY HOUSE NEXT SATURDAY MORNING, GOOD STUFF CHEAP!) and my parents coming down it's not like I can read it in a gulp...

...abstaining, abstaining, abstaining... for now.

Exert self-control on clicking, keep on the treadmill and away from LJ. :)

I may give up reading your LJ until Sunday because of potential spoilers... what time does the yard sales start?

[identity profile] neadods.livejournal.com 2007-07-17 01:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Official sale start is 8am. Unofficial start is as soon as we're upright and people are coming in to set up and I won't stop shopping - probably 6:30-7ish.

If you're planning on coming early, could I sweet-talk you into swinging by Duncan Donuts or something and bringing us starch and coffee? You would be reimbursed from the sale proceeds.

I pledge to not put Harry Potter spoilers up without a cut until next weekend.

1) Walk of Life (Billie Piper) In addition to the Billie connection, I've always felt that the lyrics really sum up the Doctor's invitation to join Team TARDIS

Gosh, that is EXACTLY how I feel about this song... I just loved the lyrics from the first time I heard it. Also, I think it's pretty much the best of Billie's songs. Someone ought to make a fanvid to it someday...

I don't know of any Who vids to it yet, which shocks me to the core. Seriously, the lyrics are *so perfect*!

David Tennant's first screen test

Heeeeee!

How cute is that?

Although I'm surprised that he's not carrying coffee. But he is NAKED!

Coffee would probably be too hot for those little paws. But nekkid as the day he was born!

Potterdammerung

Can I just say I love that word?

[identity profile] neadods.livejournal.com 2007-07-17 06:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I so wish I could claim I thought of it, but I stole it and now don't remember where.

May I inquire were you found the Unit's Theme please?
