New Xena Vid: Airplane

[frayadjacent]

Three years later I have a third installment in my Xena/Indigo Girls series! Much thanks to Xena Warrior Podcast for re-igniting my enthusiasm. This was a WIP for way too long.

Title: Airplane
Fandom: Xena Warrior Princess
Song: Airplane (edited for length) by The Indigo Girls
Summary: Travelling with Xena is hard

Content Notes: Comical, show-typical violence. Feel free to ask specific questions about content.

I do not have subtitles available yet for this vid. Lyrics for the edited version of the song under the cut below the embedded vid.

"Gabrielle vs Horses || A Xena Warrior Princess vid" (Watch on YouTube)

 

Up on the airplane
Nearer my god to thee
I start making a deal
Inspired by gravity
If I did wrong I won't do it again
'Cause I can be sweet and good and nice
And if I had enemies their friends
I'll hold to my life with the grip of a vice

And I'm up on the airplane

I never should have read my horoscope
Or the fortune on the bubble strip
Saying what you think won't happen will
A great thing to read before a trip
On an airplane

Pilot says the big blue sky's like a swimming pool
Big fluffy clouds like a feather bed
I'd rather have a real pillow underneath my head
Lying in my bed which is in my hometown
Which is on the ground
Far from an airplane
(My bed my hometown)
Far from an airplane
(On the ground my bed my hometown)
On the airplane
(I'll be making a deal)
(I'll be making a deal)

Will actually watch vid, I promise. Meanwhile, thanks for the podcast tip, not that I have actually listened to it myself, but I linked my Xena friend to it and he is already on the third episode and loving it. *g*

Oh that's great! I've been enjoying it a lot. I'm finally almost caught up to where they are, and now that they've gotten into the really meaty season 3 stuff I'm mostly re-watching along with as well.

Oh my gosh, this is wonderful! So fun and heartwarming! :D

Thank you! And sorry for the long delayed reply -- I was travelling for work and had almost no internet. :)

This is lovely! (the progression of Gabrielle vs horses is particularly fun)

Thank you! I'd originally conceived of the whole vid being only that, but then I realised there wasn't quite enough material (in terms of footage or narrative development) to make a 2 1/2 minute vid out of that. But those are my favourite bits as well. :)
