Oh Princess of Babylon, how I love thee...

[xie_xie_xie]

I had extreme PTSD when I discovered that the Princess of Babylon site had gone down.

When I first started watching QAF on DVD in December of 2005, one of the first things I did was Google "Queer as Folk music" so I could find out what some of the songs were. And POB was the first "fandom" site I ever saw, even though I barely understood that fandom existed, let alone what it was.

That site meant the world to me and when it was gone I felt all sad and miserable and lost. But it's back!!!!

*clutches Princess of Babylon to heaving bosom and kisses it many times*

So I just wanted to post this little love note about it, in case any of the new fans on my list weren't aware of this wonderful resource.

Also, the Princess of Babylon, hot4gale, made the first fan vid I ever saw. Called "Brian Remembers: Three little words," it was set to Sarah McLachlan's "I Love You." I adore this vid.

It's on YouTube and I'll embed it here, but if you want to download it or any of her other vids, she has them all here -- in better quality than on YouTube, too.

I hadn't realized that this site was gone. I used it extensively when I was making my disks. Goodbye old friend.

No idea where 1st reply went - so,
xiexie ni. This video is wonderful, the best Brian-Justin video I've seen. The clips are put together so effectively and so well linked to the song.
And, Sarah McLachlan - big sigh. I love her voice and her songs with B-J videos.
Thanks so much for the video and the link.

Brian and Justin

It was the first vid I ever saw too, and I was on dial-up at the time so it took forever to download, but I still rate it as the best ever made. Thank you for letting us know the site is back up again.
