Moonglade Beat

Just what is it about druids? Greyfoo and Brunhila set off to investigate...

Huge thanks to Brunhila for all the backing/spot vocals, it was a blast! -- and at super-short notice too, it's too bad I just can't win at Blizzcon it seems :(

You can find Brunhila at http://www.youtube.com/user/Brunhila

If you're interested in my other songs, you can find an entire album, Spacebar Clown, available at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/greyfoo
Moonglade Beat will be available on a new album sometime soon. ish.

All the kitty-cats in Karazhan
All the druids dancing in the Firelands
All the bears on the Stormwind street
Catch the vibe of this groovy Moonglade beat

All the birds farming herbs they sing
All the trees agree it's a nourishing thing
All the chickens and their laser beams
Take delight in a bite of the Emerald Dream...

Hey Hey -- yeah droods we're okay
The sun and the moon, and the breeze in my hair
So good it's not fair

Don't want your shaman with their totem pole
Don't need a hunter hiding up on a grassy knoll
Don't want a pally with their pretty wings
A druid knows -- the best things in life aint things

Fur or feather, bark or leather,
We'll stick together...
(well at least until we fight over loot)

Hey Hey -- yeah droods we're okay
The sun and the moon, and the breeze in my hair
So good it's not fair...

(meow)

And that's pretty much it - high energy carries the almost nursery-rhyme simplicity along, but (as with most of this style), it's really just about promoting the lead guitar riffs.

The movie was assembled in Sony Vegas Pro, and the in-game footage is all from Doomhammer - with just ONE druid, a still camera, a bazillion takes and some clever masking. Additionals models are FRAPS'd using WoW Model Viewer. Rattling PC fan and blue screens of death sold separately.
