tellitslant asked for "the song you've always wanted to vid something to and why it's never worked out, OR, the song you want to vid everything to and haven't found the right fandom for, OR, the vid you finally made after having the song for ages?" and I am going to answer ALL OF THEM. :D
the song you've always wanted to vid something to and why it's never worked out
Actually my answer for this bit isn't that good; I don't have a specific song to name, but I do have this problem a fair bit, because when I actually listen to the words of the songs I like, they often turn out to be a) downbeat, b) definitely about romance, c) weirdly specific or d) two or more of the above. And I mostly want to make happy vids about the stuff I think is great, so this is a problem. (Also a lot of the music I like I like because I've already seen a vid to it, which is not a dealbreaker but is definitely non-optimal.)
the song you want to vid everything to and haven't found the right fandom for
Vienna Teng's Level Up, though it's not so much that I can't find the right fandom, more that ALL the fandoms are right. I want all the Level Up vids to exist and I am happy to make at least one of them, I just don't know which one to pick. Buffy, because Buffy? Young Justice, because tiny superheroes? The Steph, Cass and Oracle vid I would totally make if I wasn't scared of vidding comics? Babylon 5? (I really want to make a Babylon 5 vid.) Warehouse 13? Leverage? I CAN'T DECIDE.
the vid you finally made after having the song for ages
Into the Blue. I thought of making it as a vid about the Doctor a couple of years ago, but lack of time and my aged laptop got in the way. But then I got a new laptop and decided I wanted to make a 50th anniversary vid, and remembered about the song. And since it was an anniversary vid, it had to be about EVERYONE, not just the Doctor. Which suited me fine, because, let's be honest, I am much more interested in the companions than the Doctor.
In conclusion, ♥ vidding ♥
