For this week's Fandom post it's The Safety Dance!

The offical video has, since Games of Thrones, often been referred to as "Jaime Lannister, Cersei and Tyrion in happier times" with a laughing emoji.

It's a fun, upbeat 80s track by Men Without Hats that has found its way into many fanvids. Below the cut are links to fanvids using it for Miranda (BBC - featuring Lucifer's Tom Ellis), Wednesday Addams, a Glee cover version, a metal cover version and a random Hugh Jackman clip.

The classic:

That doesn't seem to work outside the UK but you could try this Vimeo link or these other links youtube alternate; extended version

Miranda (BBC comedy with Miranda Hart)

Wednesday (not such much a fanvid as the famous dance scene with Safety Dance as the soundtrack. It fits really well and there's just one minor moment where a bit of editing would have lined it up better)

Glee

Metal cover by Leo Moracchioli (While this isn't my fave cover of his, Moracchioli is my fave metal cover artist, a talented musician who plays a lot of different instruments and must have to film himself over and over to cut all his vids together showing him playing each instrument and in various costumes. Check out his "Ghostbusters" cover where his daughter joins in!)

Hugh Jackman

I bet Jona Lewie was surprised it became a Christmas hit, even though it has made him very popular 😅
