It's always irked me that fanvideos are predominately made using modern pop songs. Where's the Cab Calloway dammit! I think the only exception I've found recently was a Niles Crane fanvid (such things exist) to the tune of "I feel Pretty" from West Side Story. That was hilarious.
Otherwise it all sounds like techno-babble to me. And no I'm not an old man on a porch, just an archaic wanker...
Buster Keaton fanvids are quite good. I've seen a few with Iggy Pop, Radiohead and whatnot. Radiohead also seems to pop up a lot in Shenny fanfiction...Most of OK Computer album seems to fit quite well.
Karma Police! With Sheldon running the hell away from a driverless car carrying a beige, normalised future!
(Edit - Interesting song and a good find though! Just being cranky in the morning...)
Well, it also contains the line "Better to be hated than loved for what you're not" which IMO is pretty applicable to the canon ships.
The song that I associate with Howard is "Strange Magic", by ELO. For obvious reasons
ETA: I love old music from the '30s and '40s, too.
