I fell hard for the BBC's recent TV adaptation of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell (Bertie Carvel is so fucking good! Who knew Sebastian Wilkes from Sherlock could be so hot?) and Jonathan/Arabella is my OTP. So I made a gothic fanmix.

There's a trilogy of novels by an author called Richard Rider that's based on Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt, a sort of Mighty Boosh AU based on Mint Royale's video clip for Blue Song where Barratt and Fielding play bankrobbers.
The trilogy is called Stockholm Syndrome and it's SO SO GOOD. I've been doing nothing for the past few days but devouring the books, and now I'm in withdrawal, so I've made a fanmix to cope.

What the fuck, sorry, I don't know how to graphics
And I accidentally a second attempt at something of a fanmix
I should get down to work for fuck's sake

So basically I was stuck on R.E.M.'s "Imitation of Life" as Q's character song, and I kind of built a fanmix around that song and the idea of virtuality and computers and the Internet and how the Self is lost in all that and such, they're kind of cliché songs for that particular subject I guess, but I regret nothing (most of the time)
