lyrics:

I get high on a buzz then a rush when I'm plugged in you
I connect when I'm flush
You get love when told what to do

Wonderful electric
Wonderful electric
Wonderful electric
Cover me in you

I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love with a strict machine

One of my favorite Goldfrapp songs and one of my favorite characters? YES PLEASE. The lyrics were so perfect! Everything was so perfect!

\o/ WOOT! \o/

Yes yes YES! Awesome River vid. She kicks so much ass, and so do you for highlighting her. *grin*

[themadlurker]

River!! <33333!

[fahrbotdrusilla]

Awesome!

[mareeana.livejournal.com]

This is beautiful!!

[lurkingcat]

This is utterly fantastic, much like River Song :)

[revolutionaryjo]

Ooh, love it! River!

[copracat]

\0/ \0/ That is fabulous and I love the song you've chosen, such a stylish River Song beat. And the splash!

[januar]

That. Is. GREAT.

[chaila]

I will be the gazillionth person to say YAY RIVERRRR!!! <333 I love the sections of various people being bewildered by River, how she pwns anyone who tries to trap her or catch her, and of course especially Team TARDIS's awesome River reaction faces (oh Amy). But mostly I love how meta this is, how it is all about us being utterly in love with River and all the staggeringly awesome things she does that make it impossible for us not to be utterly in love with her. Shooting guns and competence porn and flirting like a boss and jumping off things in evening gowns! She punches the Doctor and then she straightens his bow tie and then she snogs him like she owns him! HOW IS SHE EVEN REAL? :DDD

Fan club! LET'S GET JACKETS.

RIVEEEEEEEER

I love her! I love this! I love you! Just, LOVE ALL AROUND.

(The timing of the splash from her dive into the TARDIS' pool IS PERFECT!!!! :D :D :D )

[amalnahurriyeh]

This is excellent!

[huntress]

HELL YEAH!!!!! I am so happy that people are starting to vid River for real, if I had the time I would do so too but RL is a bitch in regards of time. I love River so much (always had since she was dreamed up by Moffat) and I love, love, love your vid. I can't wait to see more of her. She is simply amazing and I blame it all on Alex Kingston!

Aaaaaaaaaaaah, awesome.

*goes back to the beginning*

[musedepandora]

I don't know if I've said this yet but I couldn't find a comment from myself and I was redirected here by a friend who recommended the vid. I love this vid! I loved it the first time I saw it and I love it again on rewatch. :D

[tearful-eye.livejournal.com]

OMG YES, that was just brilliant <3

[paintedmaypole]

Yay! The world needs more River Song vids. (Also, the world needs to listen to Goldfrapp more, but that's another battle.)

This was heaps of fun, thank you!

[wealhtheow]

I love this so much!

[zahrawithaz]

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Oh, River!
