Dude. Wait, what? I think I got a contact high from watching this trippy video. This is Green Tambourine (http://www.wegame.com/watch/Green_Tambourine/) by Demachic (http://www.wow.com/tag/demachic). It seems like we've missed covering it before now, which is a shame. As the story goes, a bored Blood Elf finds a trippy hookah hanging around, and decides to try it out. He's looking to break that boredom and day-to-day life he leads in Silvermoon.
While it might be my inner hippy speaking out, I found this video absolutely gorgeous. The colors are vibrant and beautiful, and Demachic's flair for scenery sets up a great context for the music. All the characters really fit in that 60s and 70s psychadelic genre, and the whole thing just comes together wonderfully.
The song was originally by the Lemon Pipers (http://www.wegame.com/watch/Green_Tambourine/), and it actually reached #1 on the charts in 1968. Demachic's video is a great homage to the song.
Thanks to Stephen for the tip!
