I've mentioned it before and I'll say it again. I have a soft spot for good WoW music, and really enjoy the idea that I can put together a great holiday album of WoW themed Christmas music. theavatards (http://www.theavatards.com/) have posted a great submission to that album on YouTube with All I Want for Christmas is a Blue (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGRMSJ4Xg5w). It is a simple story of a woman who always gets greens, and never gets a blue.
The video itself is fairly easy on the eyes. It's got the singer, of course, and some nice use of surreality when she inspects real-life items for WoW-like quality. There's a little bit of in-game animation to make sure we know what game we're talking about here. The music is really where the piece shines, however. The music is simple and uncomplex, lending all of the song's focus on the singer. The singer does a great job of vocals, performing in a traditional holiday tone and method. This is totally worth checking out, and is already now living on my iPod.
