This thread is for those guys who don't have enough fans on here for their threads to reach their second page. You know, Max Brown, David Tennant, Daniel Radcliffe, Alex Skarsgaard, Keanu Reeves, etc.  I'll go first, and start the thread with the Saddest Spy in the World. Remember when the Spooks used safety gear?    Wow, that's some seriously long eye-lashes.  And here is proof of my theory that Tom's actually a time-traveller: Inspector Reid checking his cell. |

 Newly discovered ODG: Joseph Mawle, who plays the sexy villain in Ripper Street. This is how he looks without dodgy mustache and a whole pot of grease in his hair.  See what I mean? Jed Shine is the Undefeated Champion of Clashing Patterns, and he drinks his tea black. This is an ungushy picture, BTW. They've done their best to make sure he doesn't look too attractive. But he still gets lots of shirtless scenes...  Totally evil and totally ripped (No pun intended). Gisborne vibes, anyone? Shine didn't get killed in the season 2 finale, much to Inspector Reid's dismay (understatement), so I guess he will be back to wreack havoc on Whitechapel again. |

Is there something nefarious about drinking one's tea black? Have I been a villain all these years and not even known it??

 Ressurrecting the thread with this nice picture of Matthew, which I stole from Ripper Street's Facebook page. Why am I the only one posting here? Come on, post miscellaneous men!  |

The " Mandela"-thread had me looking up pictures of Jeff Buckley, who I have to admit I didn't know the first thing about. He's definitely material for this thread, though!    In all seriousness, this guy was Ioan-level good looking. Can't say I care for his music, but I can recognize that he had a great voice. |

Jeff gets to be the focus of yet another post, because today marks 18 years since his fatal swim in the Mississippi. In an attempt to be respectful, I'll post an actual video of him singing, rather than just more pictures of him being pretty. I think this is his best performance of this song. He sings about his own death, which would come only two years later, and the lyrics almost predict the manner of his passing. Strangely, he was singing of love as he went under, and soon after it started raining as well. Several of his other songs also contain imagery of drowning. I hope he really wasn't afraid when the river pulled him under.
Rest in peace, Jeff.

Let's not leave the thread lingering on a sad note, though. (Come on guys! You can post here too! They don't even have to be hot men, just guys you like for some reason. Any reason.) I found this amazing impersonation of Morten Harket on YouTube. You really need to hear this, no matter what you think of A-ha. Morten comes on stage to sing the second verse. Despite the first half being a parody, this is actually a very, very pretty accoustic performance. A lot more from the same guy. I don't think this is the full 35-person thing, but he does Johnny Cash, Bowie, Garth Brooks, RCHP (best one), Meatloaf, Dylan and Springsteen among others. |

I can't see the videos at work, but I know his version of Hallelujah is amazing. (It's one of my favorite songs--I love many singers' interpretations of it.)

I have to hang my head in shame, and admit that I think Kurt Nilsen's Hallelujah cover is the best version. It's simpler and more straight forward, which kind of... suits it.  Who's Kurt, you say? This is Kurt. (Um, not the guy in the preview. That's a businessman who was a guest on the show.) I couldn't find a video of him singing Hallelujah on his own, so instead you get a slightly more respectful Garth Brooks cover than the one Valen did in the previous video. |

I like K.D. Lang's. Can't link while at work, sadly. (We can't see YouTube.)

I had typed up a comment about how I hope you've got internet at home, and that you aren't administrating Horatians as workplace procrastination, but then my own connection spazzed out and I lost it.  |

Eh... hee hee hee hee... heeee... I'm not developing an obsession with a dead man, or anything. Hee hee... Because WM never goes through periodes of weird obsessions. Especially not with things that irrevocably belong to the past. And definitely not with cute boys with clean-cut features and fluffy, dark curls. Neither has ever happened before, so the combination would be really out of character.  Oh, who am I kidding? Yes, more Jeff Buckley.  But you see, this is for science! I've found out something very interesting about him. You know how some people look really different from one picture to the next? Jeff was definitely one of those people, because he apparently looked different from day to day in reality. He was aware of it himself, and joked about it in an interview. His hair, in particular, had a life of its own. He could look all the way from 17 to 35, depending on how his hair was styled, what he wore, how long it had been since he'd last shaved, and exactly how skinny he was at the time. Many of his friends were of the impression that he was actually several people sharing one body. He was a very complex personality, who could swing from one extreme to the other at the snap of fingers. There were also times where he seemed to give off the impression that he wasn't quite... real. The fact that he's become legend, is not just because he was a talented singer who happened to be good looking. Jeff Buckley is mystery.  Exhibit A. This picture is probably from late 1993. He looks like a little boy. The vast majority of professional photos of him are from between 1993-95. Fans are having fun trying to date them by what his hair looks like. In 1993 he went from wearing it short and spikey, to looking like that guy from Ancient Astronauts was giving him fashion advice. Or maybe the ghost of Jeff is influencing the UFO guy.  1994, probably at the start of, or right before, the very long Grace-tour which ended up nearly killing his soul. Still looks really young for a guy who's almost 28.  How attractive he looks, also varies a lot. In many pictures he just comes off as regular good-looking. Then there are ones like this, where he's almost inhumanly beautiful.  This was taken around the same time, maybe a month later. In that time he managed to age 5 years. He still looked great at this point. I only downloaded good pics, LOL! It's very possible to find less flattering ones.  ...wow.  December 1994. This picture strikes me as somewhat creepy. There's something about his eyes that isn't right. (He's stoned?) It doesn't look like the same guy anymore. I mean, you can tell it's him, but...  He morphed into this slightly wild-looking guy by the summer of 1995. Edit: This is from 1996, in Australia. It may have been his last professional photo session. The really funny thing is that his teeth look different between pics and videos. Sometimes they looked kind of straight and perfect, although he had actual fangs! On other occasions, it seemed like they had been chucked into his mouth using a sling shot.  It's easiest to see when he's talking. I managed to find a gif that kind of shows how schnaggled they were. BTW, the pink shirt he's wearing says "Take That". Since this was at the height of their fame, I assume it refers to the band and that he was wearing it ironically. He was a hipster before it was cool.  "Fiiiiiyaaaaaah!" Oh, right. This was science. Uh... well, it's kind of late. I'll make a scientific statement another day. |

Who's Kurt, you say?
