Master of the Universe Tribute Song

So 'Master of the Universe' by Snowqueens Icedragon had its anniversary. Here's my own little tribute to it. "Fifty Shades", a MotU theme song of sorts. Enjoy.

(MP3 Download available HERE)

Quick to be angered

Hard to please

Hot and cold and bittersweet

Everything about him

Makes me weak in the knees

And yet I'm still on my feet

Cuz when he shifts his way

From bright to moody

It's just one of the fifty shades

Of his Beauty

Some call him master

Some call him a mess

Sometimes it hurts

Sometimes I want it faster

Sometimes I want less

Love comes in spurts (little spurts)

Because the gift he makes me

Is a treasure

He gives me fifty shades

Of pleasure

Doubt swiftly fades

Here's my confession:

(Goddess to god, inner goddess calling)

I crave his fifty shades

Of love and passion

Fifty shades of love...

I haz a new blog...

...cuz it was about time. I did so many banners and illustrations for fan fics, contests and original stories. So I needed a place to collect them.

Here's the new gallery. And yes - I still barter!! You'll find the rules there too. Enjoy!

...and now the moon...

(UPDATE 8/9/2010: Andnowthemoon's ffnet pages are currently unavailable, but will return soon. I'll let you know then!)

"have you noticed you can make the name renesmee from the letters in stephenie meyer? you're left with hepity and piyeth. imagine if renesmee had had sisters..."

The above is the, uhm... 'summary' of the one-shot Gossip Gurl by the amazingly talented andnowthemoon, who has written 49 (!) stories for Twilight, Star Trek: 2009, and Merlin - and that is only under THIS penname. (yep - there are others)

I just noticed that most of her other stories' summaries just say: "Please read." I strongly second that!! STRONGLY!!!

PLEASE READ!

Never, NEVER AGAIN, do I want to hear anyone whine about what fic to read next, or about desperately needing recc's. Just go to this girl's profile and read away.

I'll just recommend 2 out of 49 here, k?

The Life Stealer
One-shot written for the Black Balloon Contest.
A masterpiece of angst, beautifully written. You will feel it.... all of it - the love, the joy, the fear, the loss... don't be scared to let this story go under your skin and take you back to when you were young and ruled by your heart.

Baby You Can Drive My Car
Entertaining AH Bella x Edward multi-chapter fic,
with some fuckhawt Jasper thrown in for good measurement. 19 chapters so far, easy to catch up – and you won't be disappointed by naugty Popstar Bella and astute SweetWard. And yeah, it's about music.

Speaking of...

Andnowthemoon is a songwriter/musician/singer too!!!

And though that talent of hers seems to run a bit under the radar (internet-wise, at least), I'm happy to make her shine here on my blog with the utterly enchanting song "Your Own Rainbow". She wrote it, inspired by my own story "Your True Colors" (GASP! IKR?? How lucky am I???), and recorded it and sent it to me.

How could I not make a video for it to show andnowthemoon's awesomeness??

And psssst... you might find some more of her original songs and recordings on her myspace, just saying... yes she is girltaminglions, too. Also on twitter...
