Uhura fanvids
You know, over in the Doctor Who/Torchwood fandom, they have a major character played by an actor who is also a singer. I could name several DW/TW vids to John Barrowman songs. Lots.
So where are all the Star Trek vids made to Nichelle Nichols' songs? Why have I never seen one? I mean, there's a classic vid of Leonard Nimoy singing "Both Sides Now," (and if somebody's done a vid to the Shat's version of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, please don't tell me) so why has nobody done Nichelle, who can actually sing?
Your mission, should you choose to accept it! Is to make a Star Trek fanvid (preferably Uhura-focused, but I'm easy) to one of Nichelle Nichols songs!
(Of course, I get that the reason why is that Barrowman is recording now, and Nichols' two albums were recorded decades ago, but still.)
