Ha ha! This dance party was definitely big enough for "inspired by Holmes" cousins like House and Wilson and Daryl Zero! :) Also, I hope it's not weird to say it, but I spent many happy years lurking in House fandom and I remember you, and all the other members of black_cigarette, with great fondness and admiration :) How lovely to meet you here!

I'm so happy you enjoyed this one -- sanspatronymic gives the best prompts, I can never resist swiping them for the treats section :) Also, *adored* both your vids this round!!!

It's been a pleasure to meet you through Holmestice! House MD was the first fandom I threw myself wholly into and will always be the fandom of my heart, but the Sherlock Holmes fandom is very pleasant as well.

I miss Nightdog and Blackmare so much, but am happily still in touch with Perspi and PWCorgigirl, and very good friends with Bironic. I've tried to pull them into Sherlock Holmes (oh, that John Watson) but they're busy with, you know, life :)

Omg my two favourite things in a vid: multiple Holmesian sources and good ol' trashy pop songs! (Not to say Gaga is actually trashy pop, she has a fantastic voice, clearly has classical training, this is just how I refer to the genre as a whole, and I LOVE the genre as a whole.)

YOU INCLUDED THE FROGWARES DANCE SCENE I AM SO HAPPY.

Love this so much, thank you for gifting it to sanspatronymic!

Hee hee, those are two of my favorite things, too! I was driving on the freeway the day after reading sanspatronymic's sign up post when this song came on the radio and I was like: This is such a damn bop!! Wait...could I???? Should I??????? And then I did, lol!

THE TRUE STRUGGLE WAS NOT TO MAKE THE FROGWARES DANCE SCENE THE ENTIRE VID.

So happy you enjoyed this! Sanspatronymic's prompt brought me joy, and I wanted to make something that lived up to its sense of fun :)

Good god! I love this! It's so campy and everything fits so perfectly with the song. I love that you included Jeremy doing his fancy boxing footwork.

Ahahaha, Jeremy in that scene is so Extra! Spin that record, babe!!!

I'm so happy you enjoyed the campiness and the visual jokes, that was 100% its whole reason for existence :) Thanks so much for your lovely comment!

Firstly, how dare you?? Secondly, i am forever in your debt. Thirdly, I watched this in the bath, which i strongly recommend for other viewers to try as well. And lastly, a brief, very incomplete list of things that made me cackle like an absolute fiend:

-“what’s going on on the floor”. Literally lost it. Water sloshed from the tub, fairly sure the neighbors now think a malevolent witch lives next door.

-perfect amount of Ratigan

-fencing montage

-all of the Queen of Mystery clips. I haven’t watched it and this vid has made me resolved to change that.

I COULDN'T HELP IT!?? YOUR PROMPT WAS IRRESISTIBLE!!!!

Hee hee, I'm so happy to have enlivened your bath experience with this vid's terribly literal jokes, I feel very proud! :)

Ratigan Supremacy 2021. Be the change you want to see in the world.

There is so much bad fencing and bad boxing in the Holmesian oeuvre crying out for montages, it's a gift <33333

all of the Queen of Mystery clips. I haven’t watched it and this vid has made me resolved to change that.

Yaaaaassss, I'm thrilled to hear that!! I genuinely think you'll love it. Yoo Seol Ok is a wonderful, *wonderful* Holmes.

Thank you, it cheered me up to make this and to share it! So glad you enjoyed it :)

[*INSERT MANY EXCLAMATORY SWEAR WORDS HERE*]

This is incredible. I mean, it just goes on and on, so many different holmeses and watsons and characters based very loudly on them, and every clip is a perfect match to the words and the rhythm and the energy of the music. Which is one of my favorite songs. It even made me want to go back and watch some Sherlock again.

YAY!!! *INSERT GLEEFUL CACKLING HERE*

Thank you so much, I'm so happy you got a kick out of all the Holmeses and Watsons (and close cousins) in this one! There are sooooo many of these goofballs to choose from, lol! This song is such a bop, it came on the radio when I was driving one day shortly after Holmestice sign-ups had begun and I thought...oh no! this would be too fun to vid! And then it was :P Thanks so much for watching, I'm delighted you enjoyed it :)
