I watch fanvids for a lot more fandoms than I read fanfic for, and one of the things I like to do is compare how vidders from different fandoms use the same song. Sometimes it's quite similar; other times amazingly different. See the two Umbrella vids below for an especially diametrically opposite approach!

I thought it might be fun to make a little list of vids I know from different fandoms that are set to the same song. This is by no means a complete list of vids for each song, let alone of songs that have vids from multiple fandoms! However, these are all vids I enjoyed enough to rec, and some are recent or even all-time favorites. It's going to be heavy on Cdrama fandoms since they're what I'm watching the most right now.

⚠ vids may contain spoilers, canon-typical violence and blood, major character death, and other content warnings, as well as potential visual triggers such as rapid or stutter cuts and flashing lights. If you're familiar with the canon, you'll have a pretty good idea of potential warnings, and if you want to watch fandom-blind, feel free to ask and I can provide specifics.

( On to the vids! )

I've never read that much fanfic for Battlestar Galactica, but it's one of the fandoms for which I've saved the most fanvids. There's just so many amazing BSG vids! I'll have to do a longer rec post to share more sometime (edit: done), but since I mentioned them in my Yuri on Ice vid recs yesterday, here are my favorite fanvids combining footage from Battlestar Galactica (reboot version) with music by P!nk. It's an iconic match.

Unfortunately most of these are older vids and were never re-uploaded to current streaming services, but the links to download them are still working as of the publication of this post.

⚠ for spoilers, canon-typical violence, blood, and potential visual triggers in these vids

They do not contain voice or sound clips from the source material.

• God is a DJ - first in dualbunny's classic trio of Kara vids set to P!nk
• Cuz I Can - Kara-centric, second in dualbunny's trio (extra ⚠ for child abuse and child harm)
• I'm Not Dead - Kara-centric, third in dualbunny's trio
• Raise Your Glass - Kara and the pilots drink it up, by taragel
• So What - Kara tries not to give a fuck, by taragel (Kara/Lee and Kara/Sam)
• Who Knew? - as a Kara/Lee shipper, this one (also by dualbunny) really puts me through the emotional wringer, and ties with the equally heart-wrenching Some Time Around Midnight for my favorite vid about the two of them
