[Reply #402 on:]

Since this thread has been going rather slow lately, I thought I'd add some shippy pics for all to enjoy:

Fry/Leela


Kif/Amy


And Xanfor: it's fine, don't worry about it.  No hard feelings 

[Reply #403 on:]

Lately when I listen to Natalie Imbruglia I keep getting reminded of Fry and Leela.  (Of course that could just be my obsession, but bear with me.  )

Like this one song:
 

Natalie Imbruglia - Shiver

I walk a mile with a smile
And I don't know, I don't care where I am
But I know it's alright
Jump the tracks, can't get back
I don't know anyone around here
But I'm safe this time

Cos when you
Tell me, Tell me, Tell me
Stupid things, like you do
Yes, I have to, have to, have to
Change the rules
I can't lose

CHORUS:
Cause I shiver, I just break up
When I'm near you, it all gets out of hand
Yes I shiver, I get bent up
There's no way that I know you'll understand

We talk and talk 'round it all
Who'd have thought we'd end up here?
But I'm feeling fine
In a rush, never trust you'll be there
If I'd only stop and take my time

Cos with you
I'm running, running, running
Somewhere I can't get to
Yes I have to have to have to
Change the rules
I'm with you

[Chorus]

BRIDGE:
What if you get off at the next stop?
Would you just wave as I'm drifting off?
If I never saw you again
Could I (could I) keep all (all) of this (of this)
Inside?

CHORUS repeat to fade

Those pre-choruses especially.

And in the song Counting Down the Days:
 

I wanna travel through time
See your surprise
Hold you so tight
I’m counting down the days tonight
I just wanna be a million miles away from here
I’m counting down the days

Hello! "Time Keeps on Slippin'" anyone? 

[Reply #404 on:]

That does sound a bit like TKOS

[Reply #405 on:]

I have some Lyrics that fit the Fry/Leela ship almost perfectly. Pretend its Leela who singing and Fry hasn't made it clear how much he likes her and its perfect!

Misty's Song[/i]
Out here in the quiet of the night
Beneath the stars, and moon
We both know we've got somethin' on our minds
We won't admit, but it's true

You look at me, I look away

I wanna tell you what I'm feeling,
But I don't know how to start
I wanna tell you, but now
I'm afraid that you might break my heart
Oh why should anything so easy ever
Be so hard to do
I wanna tell you what I'm feeling,
And to say that, I love you

I practice all the things that I would say
Line by line, every word
I tell myself today would be the day
But everytime, I lose my nerve

I look at you, you look away

I wanna tell you what I'm feeling,
But I don't know how to start
I wanna tell you, but now,
I'm afraid that you might break my heart
Oh why should anything so easy ever
Be so hard to do
I wanna tell you what I'm feeling,
And to say that, I love you

Why?
Why do you turn away
It must be, you're afraid like me
I try, but I can't pretend that I,
Don't feel for you, the way I do,
Can't you see

I wanna tell you what I'm feeling,
But I don't know how to start
I wanna tell you, but now,
I'm afraid that you might break my heart
Oh why should anything so easy ever
Be so hard to do,
I wanna tell you what I'm feeling
And to say that, I love you

I wanna tell you what I'm feeling,
But I don't know how to start
I wanna tell you, but now,
I'm afraid that you might break my heart
Oh why should anything so easy ever
Be so hard to do,
I wanna tell you what I'm feeling
And to say that, I love you

A few choice songs from ColdPlay, like Yellow, defines the Fry/Leela ship. Yellow, The Scientist, Clocks, Fix You;, just to name a few

[Reply #407 on:]

Fry to Leela after "The Cryonic Woman"


Ben Folds - "Landed"

We'd hit the bottom,
I thought it was my fault
And in a way I guess it was
I'm just now finding out
What it was all about

Moved to the west coast away from everyone
She never told me that you called
Back when I was still, I was still in love

Till I opened my eyes and walked out the door
And the clouds came tumbling down
And it's bye-bye, goodbye, I tried
And I twisted it wrong just to make it right
Had to leave myself behind
I've been flying high all night
So come pick me up...I've landed

The daily dramas she made from nothing
So nothing ever made them right
She liked to push me and talk me back down
Until I believed I was the crazy one,
and in a way
I guess I was...

But I opened my eyes and walked out the door
And the clouds came tumbling down
And it's bye-bye, goodbye I tried
Treading a sea of a troubled mind
Had to leave myself behind
Singing bye-bye, goodbye I tried

If you wrote me off I'd understand it
Because I've been on some other planet
So come pick me up...
I've landed

And you will be so
happy to know
I've come alone,
it's over

But I opened my eyes and walked out the door
And the clouds came tumbling down
And it's by my goodbye I tried
Down comes the reign of the telephone czar
It's OK to call
Now I'll answer for myself

Come pick me up,
...I've landed

What about Lior's 'This Old Love'?

[Reply #409 on:]

Saw Disney's Hercules in Myth class awhile back.  The song Meg sings - "Won't say I'm in Love" - reminds me of Leela trying to deny her feelings.

The Disgustingly Sappy Futurama Shippers' (Alternate) Anthem
(Tune: ‘Smut,' by Tom Lehrer*)

SHIP!
Oh give me ship and let it rip!
Show me a sappy TV clip,
My heart will skip,
And I'll be chip.........         
...per.

I'm energetic
If it's bathetic;
Schmaltz, sap, and mushy stuff meet my aesthetic.
If I might elaborate on
The genre of my devotion,
To be ship
It must be crip--
--lingly endowed with thick romantic emotion--

Sent.........
...timental episodes torment...
Us as they slyly circumvent
The main event
And leave us spent--!

(Bring on the deep-space cruises, Xmas fear, parasites,         
Insane spaceships, space bees, Devil's bargains!
More, more! I'm STILL not satisfied!!!)

I tend to feel a
Lot for Fry and Leela,
Plots that their romantic fate imply...
Make me sigh!

Amy and her Kiffy,
Also pretty spiffy;
Bender and the Countess had their charm....
(Let's face it, I love smarm!)

All eps, you know, are shippy eps,
Though some can be more blatant;
For ship is in the details,
And the best ship is the latent.
To the learnéd glance,
Everything's romance--
Why, I can find ship in "Clone of My Own"
Or "Crimes of the Hot" when I'm in 'the zone!'

I cheer......
When Venus updates reach our sphere;
I'm also known to shed a tear
When they appear
`Cause they're so peer........
...less!

Who needs a hobby, like football scores or raising bees?
I've got a hobby: rereading Layla's masterpiece.

There's also shippy artwork, and
Each day new shippers rise -
Why Xanfor's brought new fics and threads
Just brimming with the thing we prize.......

(In other words--)

Ship! (I love it!)
Ah, we're all helpless in its grip!

Even JBerges took a sip--
A little nip--
Of tasty Ship--
Hip, hip hooray!

LET'S HEAR IT FOR FUTURAMA! (Alt: LET'S HEAR IT FOR MATT AND DAVID!)

And thank God more Ship’s on the waaaaaayyy!      
   

~~~~~

            
*WARNING:

Show spoiler

The original lyrics to the source-tune of the preceding filksong contain no actual obscenity and could be legally played on U.S. primetime broadcast television; however, the singing of those lyrics by underaged Earthlings is considered vulgar, rude, socially unacceptable and a disturbing sign of psychological pathology by most parents, teachers, principals, counsellors, social workers, Church Ladies, and people who don’t like Futurama. 

Tom Lehrer’s ‘Smut’ could be said to have “mature themes,” if the sentiment expressed in it weren’t so gleefully immature.  In fact, all of Mssr. Lehrer’s lyrics can be highly offensive in the right time and place, despite being completely inoffensive in in language and form. CAUTION is therefore strongly urged before you delve into the world of sharp wit, scathing satire, and just plain silliness of Lehrerian verse.

Good night, and remember to recycle.

Oh, yes, and of course...



So now, I'm gone. Be back soon though, I will be. Smoke me a kipper!

[Reply #411 on:]

Nice pic, Xanfor. The bit with Bender and the Contessa seems to be in higher definition then the rest of it.

[Reply #412 on:]

I was listening to the radio and there was this song on that made me think a bit of F&L. i've been trying to find the lyrics or the song so i can listen to it. All i can remember is that the Chorus went something like "you know i love you - don't you" and that the song was about him loving someone but not saying it.

Anyone think they can help?

[Reply #413 on:]

Happy Easter, friends! I have a very fun idea!

Sometime within this week, in one of my posts, somewhere on PEEL, I will post the following phrase.

 

This is An Easter Egg!

Whoever finds it, alert me in this thread, and I just might start something very shippy...

I'm being honest, the day she left for the first time I cried, it was so sad that they never told eachother how they felt. Then I heard that song and cried even more, oh if only he'd heard they'd be together and she never would've left!

Xanfor, I found it! I found the Golden Ticke- Easter Egg. It's in Death Clock, Time Zone Change fan-fic.

Quoted for proof.

[Reply #421 on:]

I found i... aw, no!  I've been beaten. :P

[Reply #422 on:]

Aww me too

[Reply #423 on:]

Awww. I got excited when i found that  aw well. What very shippi thing might you just start...

[Reply #424 on:]

Even though I posted about it first I forget to quote it so it's probably going to go to Sine Wave. Good job.

[Reply #425 on:]

Has anyone heared the song " cChasing Cars" by Snow Patrol?
It made me think of Fry and Leela's relationship.

[Reply #426 on:]

MrBlonde, the Canadian, found it in only fifty-one minutes. Well, technically, JustNibblin' found it first, but he didn't post about it here, so... And extra credit to Sine Wave for quoting. 

Now, does everyone know what time it is? Prepare yourselves... For the Shippyest Art/Shippy Logo Competition Two Thousand Seven Point Three Three One Five! Yes, that's right, it's back! For those of new to the Wonderful World of The PEEL, here's a basic rundown: Simply post in this thread your submissions of Shippy Art, or Art that you believe would make The Perfect Emblem to Represent The Shippers of PEEL. As before, the rules are simply that the images must be of reasonably small size, and please, no PNGs. Up to three images per person are accepted, and gratuitous nudity may be as well. Then, on a certain date (5/1/07, in this case), a poll will be created in the Fanart forum. This is the current Shippy Logo, here, and is thus automatically entered into the next poll.



This here is TriggerHappyJim's submission, which he made several seconds after the official start of the last poll. So, officially, it belongs in this one.



And, as always, my submission.



Submit away!

[Reply #427 on:]

May this topic never die 

[Reply #428 on:]

Well, it hasn't died yet, so let the 'Leela sweet smile' continue!


(only shippyish pic I could find  )

[Reply #430 on:]

*Squeeee!!!*

That shippy pic made my day Sine Wave!  It so perfect.... 

[Reply #431 on:]

haha, that's great!

[Reply #432 on:]

Sine Wave, as things stand now, you've got my future vote. 

[Reply #433 on:]

OMG sine! that is AMAZING! did you draw that?

[Reply #434 on:]

No, I did not. All credit to Asa B. (name in bottom right corner). It was a random find on TLZ, which I lost, and then scoured through the entire catalog of fanart to find again. Why did I go through in reverse alphabetical order for a drawing by Asa B, why?

[Reply #435 on:]

Then...why did you post it?
This is a contest for who can MAKE the best fan art...not a contest for who can FIND the best fan art!

What's your point? What you quoted doesn't specify either way.

Why would there be a contest to see who could plagiarize the best, though?

[Reply #438 on:]

 

Simply post in this thread your submissions of Shippy Art,

Aka. your own fanart

 

or Art that you believe would make The Perfect Emblem to Represent The Shippers of PEEL.

aka. an awesome shippy pic you find and just have to share with the rest of the shippers.

 

Why would there be a contest to see who could plagiarize the best, though?

It's not plagiarizing if you say who drew it and aren't tying to get credit for it (though I do think Sine Wave should have said who'd done it in his first post).  The contest is just to give shippers wonderful shippy pics. 

[Reply #439 on:]

I vote Sine Wave. Now that I've got a computer with PNG save files, I use them constantly... I sure do hope you have more contests.
