Fun true coincidences!
Rahm Emmanuel and Stephen Colbert were at Northwestern University the same year (1984-1985), which Rahm/Stephen fandom is *all over*. But this is also, almost certainly, a year when teenage Rodney McKay was there. Where's that fic, pls?
So I left one of my Yuletide novels on the bus yesterday? It's a two-book series; the one I lost is the one I already owned - I had to wait three weeks to get the other one on interlibrary loan. So I went to the local library today, which luckily did have copies of the one I lost, and decided while I was there to check the Goodwill next door, and guess what I found there for $.50? --that's right, a copy of the one I had waited for on interlibrary loan! So now I still own one and have one out from the library, only reversed. Oh, world.
And it's Ben Browder's (and John Kerry's!) birthday, so let's do another set of fandomy songs! These ones are specifically songs *sung* by BSOs, or the actors who play them:
Hugh Laurie - Silent Night.mp3
This is House playing the piano, from, I believe, the season one Christmas episode. (I wanted to get one of Shatner singing on Boston Legal, but none of the bits I could find were Christmassy songs.)
John Barrowman - Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas.mp3
John Barrowman, being a musical theater guy, has a lot of tracks available out there; thing is, all the ones I've been able to grab are Captain Jack Harkness songs. I can put together a Captain Jack playlist using only tracks with him singing. This worries me a bit.
...this one is a slightly-more-cheery (but still fairly good) version of Merry Little Christmas off of his Christmas special.
Robert Downey, Jr. - River.mp3
This was apparently written and sung by RDJ for some sort of Ally McBeal-related album? (Ally McBeal is in Boston Legal continuity, btw, fun fact!) I have no idea why, or how my sister got her hands on the track. But it makes me really, really want fluff fic where Steve drags Tony out ice-skating at Rockefeller center. And there is no angst. At all. About anything. Unlike in this song. Just skating, and colorful themed scarves, and fluff.
Bing Crosby and David Bowie - Little Drummer Boy.mp3
From Bing's last Christmas special. The only version of Little Drummer Boy that doesn't make me want to stab my eardrums out.
And no, David Bowie is not the slashiest one in this duet.
