When I watched these as a kid, I never understood how real this song was. I liked the beat and the animation and didn't understand "eight to five, ten an hour" or "product placement." Now that I rewatch this as an adult... I still love it, but it also makes me feel slightly dead inside. I feel like you know a song is good when you can grow up with it and slowly die the more you understand its meaning.

Scubey Jim actually what that quote is about is that if we made our life about the game the White lite of time would be flickering by and we’ll pass it without realizing it
This song is... actually pretty sad and depressing. Especially as you grow up and grow to understand what's actually being said. It's really good and hurts the feels... ;-;
I know this song is supposed to be a silly spoof, but I can actually relate to it. There was a time my life was like that, and this song kind of hits home with me.
*This part of the song is probably the saddest, when I went to school I felt this almost everyday, this song is just amazing. Luckily things change.* 01:47 "And so I’m so confused and find it rather lame, that I am all alone; oh why can’t life be like the game? E-e-e-eight to five, ten an hour, -fast food- embrace the malaise -worthless degree- shut the door and power on for the rest of my d-d-d-d-days. I feel the white light of time, as it flickers by. When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy, whose life ain't like the game."
I played WoW. A lot. I have been clean for over 2 years, and I still believe it to have been the right decision. I still come back here for nostalgia from time to time, though
dont check out turtle wow, a private server with 5000+ players based on vanilla wow with custom content blizzard never implemented (hyjal, quel'thalas, high elf race etc.)
I commented on this video a mere week after it first released, saying that this video was the story of my life. Did it again 3 years later. I'm now back over 6 years later.. and it's the same today. No regrets. Once a gamer - always a gamer.
Eleven years ago I thought this was your worst song because it didn't make me laugh. Now I listen to this song in abject horror, for I have become this.
As being someone who played wow since vanilla (2005) till cata for 5 years I've had a lot of fond memories over those years but in the end I saw this video and it was some of the final nails in the coffin for this game and I would never go back I realized that it was just a game
Even after all this time this song kinda gets me down every time. This text is so on point with its deep meaning. Though not everything about this is necessarily bad, those are thoughts you mustn't ignore either..
Yikes. To this day I still play this song regularly on Spotify, and to this day I can still relate. Minus playing WoW - I gave up that addiction long ago.
during this time i was playing wow, Halo, Yugioh, and had a 7 to 7 job.... and i just got a new German shepherd... i would trade almost anything to relive those days
I commented on this video a mere week after it first released, saying that this video was the story of my life. I'm now back over 3 years later.. and it's the same today. No regrets. Once a gamer - always a gamer.
I woke up somedays ago singing this song after not having heard it for 10 years at least! Luckily I remembered the 12 days of Winterveil song and found your channel once again!
The year is 2019, I thought I started playing WoW about 5 years ago... no. No I did not. The end of Vanilla was *not* 5 years ago. This song has a new meaning and in one sentence, it's: "Oh dear god, what have I done with my life." *replay, put on loop*
One of the most accurate and depressing songs ever :'( Now, this might lead some people to think, this guy is a loser! But let's face it, life would be a lot easier if we could achieve momentous things as easily and as often as we do in game. Also, I'm poor as dirt irl, but rich as Xerxes in games so it's nice to be able to be generous in games and give friends expsensive gifts and so on.
3:18 - 3:46 danm that was deep, especially with the knowledge that such a fantastic machinimator such as Oxhorn will no longer be posting his amazing works. I've watched these videos time and time again and watching them again brings a tragic sense of nostalgia.
13 years later, this song is a testament to the generation that lost itself in front of the screen, the generation that "shut the door and toured on to the rest of its days". Some of the lyrics in this song are beautiful, and I'm endlessly grateful for this song.
Don't be hard on yourselves, guys. Plenty of people (IRL) are something somewhere, but no where else. A good worker in the office? A terrible spouse at home and a loser with no friends. A singer-songwriter? Maybe they're liked by fans but no one in their personal lives. We all have spaces where we're heroes, but that doesn't always extend outside of that space. Gaming is NO different! GAME ON AND BE THE AWESOME PERSON YOU KNOW YOU ARE
me as a teenager "heh, lame, won't ever be me, great song though!" Me as a 27year old who has acomplished very little outside of video games: "oh this hurts... great song though..."
This song in particular hits home for an inordinate amount of people. It’s catchy and fun, but the story it tells is one so many of us have lived, and it’s quite depressing.
This was the theme of my childhood right here. 8 years old, blasting this shit as I leveled my worgen warrior on Skywall with my dad’s dwarf hunter. Know that you essentially made the theme song of my childhood, Ox. Thanks man
Oxhorn. My name! In my own song, Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah. I have 300 mounts. 5 tiers of raiding gear, I have more pets than you or anyone from there to here. You can’t compete with me, so don’t you even try. I gank 10 dwarves a day and punt gnomes until they fly! My guild does ICC and all the toughest raids. If we played Starcraft 2 we’d one-shot the Queen of Blades. And so I’m so confused despite the elves I maim, in real life I’m a n00b; oh why can’t life be like the game!? I feel the white light of time as it flickers by. When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy, who’s life aint like the game. I have 5000 gold and all achievement points. You want the violet drake? Then earn it blit, lik-like, muh-muh-mEEE! I am the faction king, earned exalted rewards, including Ravenholdt and Hydraxian Waterlords. I’ve invested my time and built myself a life. I’m sure my pwning skills could earn me a girlfriend or wife. And so I’m so confused and find it rather lame, that I am all alone; oh why can’t life be like the game? E-e-e-eight to five, ten an hour, -fast food- embrace the malaise -worthless degree- shut the door and power on for the rest of my d-d-d-d-days. I feel the white light of time, as it flickers by. When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy, whose life aint like the game. Dance girl, shake your thick tail. Dance girl, shake your thick tail! Come on girl, ride my epic mount and then shake your thick tail! I’m every player’s fantasy, with skills seen only in your dreams. I’ll take you on five at a time, ’cuz I’m my own arena team! Pwning, punting, casting, fearing, camping corpses, laughing jeering, mining, crafting, buying, selling, ninja-looting legendaries. Driving, working, eating, sleeping, coughing, sneezing, wheezing, breathing, every day is just the same oh why can’t life be like the game!? Hello darling. Will you be my girl? I’ll shard your purples and let you ride my rocket mount. I lesser-than-three you, my sweet. Save a spot in the raid for me, and I’ll place a gem in your sockets. Day-in, day-out, going without, social graces, friendly faces, new achievements, grinding faction, hoarding badges, CG action. I feel the white light of time, as it flickers by. When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy, whose life aint like the game.
This song woke me up all those years ago. A harsh dose of reality, disguised as a machinima. A threat of failure if no action is taken. Genius. Even if it was not meant in this way, I am still thankful, Oxhorn.
The song was a bit of an eye-opener and surprisingly deep. And as TheBridgy4eva said a couple months ago, kind of sad. (As in it was saddening.) Why _can't_ life be like a game? Maybe not all the time... Just once in a while.
I know that's probably not Oxhorn's intention but, dude, seriously thanks for the wake-up call! I quit the game when I realize just how many years of "white light" has "flickered by" before I realized I actually had goals in the real world to accomplish. Grinding rep at work instead of online. Achieving sales goals instead of quest goals. Advancing through the levels of my company instead of through a guild. It's nice. Every now and again I come back to this song and just lament how long it took me to cotton on to the real world. At least I'm not one of those people who STILL play and has played since vanilla.
Hunter Gathering doesn't work. Back in those days, infant mortality rates where through the roof. It's not predictable and it's not survivable. "Lets walk over there, Hope to find some food that....HOPE to find, oh there might be another tribe there too"...
Today I woke up and this song was playing in my head. It feels really strange because I don't play WoW anymore. Last time when I logged in with my char there's an list of offline for years friends I don't know. I miss the time when we were playing together. And when I was young and believed that life became better Oh why can't life be like the game..
Just like so many people here point out; loved it as a kid playing WOTLK, but now that I hear it as a 24yo that's quit WoW a long time ago but still plays videogames and met many bumps in the road, some thanks to gaming... Damn. Real shit. Life is more than gaming.

This is really the culmination of talent of every video you have made before. I am extremely impressed and envious of your command of the model viewer and the various rendering programs this takes. Just awesome!
When I watched these as a kid, I never understood how real this song was. I liked the beat and the animation and didn't understand "eight to five, ten an hour" or "product placement." Now that I rewatch this as an adult... I still love it, but it also makes me feel slightly dead inside. I feel like you know a song is good when you can grow up with it and slowly die the more you understand its meaning.

"I feel the white light of time as it flickers by"
Some depressing shit right there.
Scubey Jim It evokes strong feelings, has rhyme and meter.
That makes it good poetry.
But yes, very depressing....or revealing, depending.

Don't worry, as long as no one gets unplugged you don't need to think about it.
Best. Oxhorn song. Ever.
Best. Song. Ever*
"I have 5000 Gold..."
Oh,the nostalgia! Oh,the inflation...
right now it's hardly even pocket change
Bolek Lolek
Back then:
"Hey,can I have 1 Gold?"
Today:
"Hey,can I have 100 Gold?"
+Brain_dead More like 500 gold
Highlord Ynot
Even looking back at my pre-Legion-comment seems...weird. Gold is worth NOTHING by now XD
Hahaha, oh yeah. Those where the days. Trying to get enough gold for flying at 80 XD
This song is... actually pretty sad and depressing.
Especially as you grow up and grow to understand what's actually being said.
It's really good and hurts the feels... ;-;
yeah....
I was vibing to it when I was young, now... I just feel what he wanted to say.
This song spoke to me.
I know this song is supposed to be a silly spoof, but I can actually relate to it. There was a time my life was like that, and this song kind of hits home with me.
Take the whole "I'm awesome" part out of it and this song could be my biography.
I don't think this song is supposed to be a silly spoof. It has really good lyrics with a lot of depth.
@@enlightenedterrestrial Yes but what I mean is, it's poking fun at the lifestyle. But at the same time, it has some really good points.
2:52 this whole thing here just make you feel sad in comparison to how real life is to our digital lives
I'm afraid I caught a severe case of ''the feels''
Patrick Mark So many feels.
How are you feeling today? Did you recover safely from "the feels"?
@@mathiassvendsen9788 Was coming here to say the same, LOL. The nostalgia
This song will always hit so hard. The amount of truth just fucking hurts, but can't help but love it.
it's been 7 years, and only now do i realize how much i relate to the meaning behind this song
*This part of the song is probably the saddest, when I went to school I felt this almost everyday, this song is just amazing. Luckily things change.*
01:47
"And so I’m so confused
and find it rather lame,
that I am all alone;
oh why can’t life be like the game?
E-e-e-eight to five, ten an hour,
-fast food-
embrace the malaise
-worthless degree-
shut the door and power on
for the rest of my d-d-d-d-days.
I feel the white light of time,
as it flickers by.
When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy,
whose life ain't like the game."
+MeNotyouxD those were the days in school wow from 2-10 everyday
This song is ironic cause he met his wife in wow.
Oh cool people still watch this in 2020 too lol
Oh man, I'm so happy people still watch this, even now
I played WoW. A lot. I have been clean for over 2 years, and I still believe it to have been the right decision. I still come back here for nostalgia from time to time, though
dont check out turtle wow, a private server with 5000+ players based on vanilla wow with custom content blizzard never implemented (hyjal, quel'thalas, high elf race etc.)
I've watched this so much that I can sing it from memory, including the lesson on music at the end... god I miss old WoW
God I miss being a child at 2am being a crackhead sneaking on TH-cam to watch oxhorn lol
Don't
We
All
Nostalgia is a powerful thing. Never thought oxhorn would make me cry, not laugh.
2:12 is the most satisfying thing ever
😍😍😍😍😍
it's hypnotic
I commented on this video a mere week after it first released, saying that this video was the story of my life. Did it again 3 years later.
I'm now back over 6 years later.. and it's the same today.
No regrets. Once a gamer - always a gamer.
Yo is it still like that? :(
The nostalgia is very cry
Dude I might cry because of how much I loved this channel and how they stopped.
FotemoreProductions IKR. Terrible ;c
Maybe in the future...
***** Hopefully
I lesser than three this.
The feels man. The feels
Eleven years ago I thought this was your worst song because it didn't make me laugh.
Now I listen to this song in abject horror, for I have become this.
I really miss Oxhorn and his great films... Hope he enjoying his life, becouse he is good man. My life got sad when he left TH-cam.
He's still on YT...just not making WoW machinima any more. Doing a great job with lore from the Fallout series of games, though. :-)
MightyKin his live streams are really good but I understand
As being someone who played wow since vanilla (2005) till cata for 5 years I've had a lot of fond memories over those years but in the end I saw this video and it was some of the final nails in the coffin for this game and I would never go back I realized that it was just a game
Even after all this time this song kinda gets me down every time. This text is so on point with its deep meaning.
Though not everything about this is necessarily bad, those are thoughts you mustn't ignore either..
2:45 is depressing
Yikes. To this day I still play this song regularly on Spotify, and to this day I can still relate. Minus playing WoW - I gave up that addiction long ago.
This song kept me playing through Cata idk why, and now I’m watching all of Oxhorn’s videos for classic. Loved this channel back in the day
during this time i was playing wow, Halo, Yugioh, and had a 7 to 7 job.... and i just got a new German shepherd... i would trade almost anything to relive those days
I know this song is suppose to be a mockery of pop music.
But it's really good, sorta like ME! ME! ME!
Y'know the same message
+Greg Holland well ME! ME! ME! is a mockery of something different but i get your point
+bookplate they both mock getting addicted to things, and not wanting to live in the real world
Greg Holland true.
+Greg Holland if you listen to the English dub version you'd realize wht its actually about

+Carl Herkommer GAMERS FOR LIFE!
So whats the story 3 more years later?
To this day, it's still my favourite pop song xD Love you Oxhorn, hope you're getting by well!
I woke up somedays ago singing this song after not having heard it for 10 years at least! Luckily I remembered the 12 days of Winterveil song and found your channel once again!
Welcome back, brother!
man how epic was this, how we took this quality content for granted.
This is one hollywood type of budget Machinima :o
it's still good... after all of these years... it's still one of my favorite...
Always will be!
I grew up watching oxhorn he's what got me into wow watching this brings back so much nostalgic
The year is 2019, I thought I started playing WoW about 5 years ago... no. No I did not. The end of Vanilla was *not* 5 years ago. This song has a new meaning and in one sentence, it's:
"Oh dear god, what have I done with my life."
*replay, put on loop*
fuck, 28 and still rocking this
bruh fr
hell yeah, brother
Another trip down this nostalgia train. 10 years already :'(
One of the most accurate and depressing songs ever :'(
Now, this might lead some people to think, this guy is a loser! But let's face it, life would be a lot easier if we could achieve momentous things as easily and as often as we do in game.

im starting to feel old :/

me as a teenager "heh, lame, won't ever be me, great song though!"

Despair
This song in particular hits home for an inordinate amount of people. It’s catchy and fun, but the story it tells is one so many of us have lived, and it’s quite depressing.
This song is still the best thing to ever grace us humans.
This was the theme of my childhood right here. 8 years old, blasting this shit as I leveled my worgen warrior on Skywall with my dad’s dwarf hunter. Know that you essentially made the theme song of my childhood, Ox. Thanks man
this song always makes me feel so sad! :C
LIEK DIES EF YU CRAI EFRYTIEM
Oxhorn.
My name!
In my own song,
Oh yeah, oh yeah,
oh yeah, oh yeah.
I have 300 mounts.
5 tiers of raiding gear,
I have more pets than you
or anyone from there to here.
You can’t compete with me,
so don’t you even try.
I gank 10 dwarves a day
and punt gnomes until they fly!
My guild does ICC
and all the toughest raids.
If we played Starcraft 2
we’d one-shot the Queen of Blades.
And so I’m so confused
despite the elves I maim,
in real life I’m a n00b;
oh why can’t life be like the game!?
I feel the white light of time
as it flickers by.
When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy,
who’s life aint like the game.
I have 5000 gold
and all achievement points.
You want the violet drake?
Then earn it blit, lik-like, muh-muh-mEEE!
I am the faction king,
earned exalted rewards,
including Ravenholdt and
Hydraxian Waterlords.
I’ve invested my time
and built myself a life.
I’m sure my pwning skills could
earn me a girlfriend or wife.
And so I’m so confused
and find it rather lame,
that I am all alone;
oh why can’t life be like the game?
E-e-e-eight to five, ten an hour,
-fast food-
embrace the malaise
-worthless degree-
shut the door and power on
for the rest of my d-d-d-d-days.
I feel the white light of time,
as it flickers by.
When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy,
whose life aint like the game.
Dance girl, shake your thick tail.
Dance girl, shake your thick tail!
Come on girl, ride my epic mount
and then shake your thick tail!
I’m every player’s fantasy,
with skills seen only in your dreams.
I’ll take you on five at a time,
’cuz I’m my own arena team!
Pwning, punting, casting, fearing,
camping corpses, laughing jeering,
mining, crafting, buying, selling,
ninja-looting legendaries.
Driving, working, eating, sleeping,
coughing, sneezing, wheezing, breathing,
every day is just the same
oh why can’t life be like the game!?
Hello darling. Will you be my girl?
I’ll shard your purples and let you ride my rocket mount.
I lesser-than-three you, my sweet.
Save a spot in the raid for me,
and I’ll place a gem in your sockets.
Day-in, day-out, going without,
social graces, friendly faces,
new achievements, grinding faction,
hoarding badges, CG action.
I feel the white light of time,
as it flickers by.
When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy,
whose life aint like the game.
This song woke me up all those years ago. A harsh dose of reality, disguised as a machinima. A threat of failure if no action is taken. Genius. Even if it was not meant in this way, I am still thankful, Oxhorn.
Write him this in one of the current scotch and smokes, so he reads it
11 years and im still watching this wow
Funny, i used to laugh cause i love this song, Now....It actually hits closer to home than it should....
I can't believe it's been so long since this came out.
Do you believe it now?
strangely enough i think this song may make me feel more sad than songs made to make you sad... :(
damn! 8 years later and this is still absolutely amazing. so impressed by the songwriting
1:55 the nostalgia hits so hard I watched this in like 3rd grade now I'm in highschool
I miss your videos and character stories so much. ; w ;
The song was a bit of an eye-opener and surprisingly deep. And as TheBridgy4eva said a couple months ago, kind of sad. (As in it was saddening.) Why _can't_ life be like a game? Maybe not all the time... Just once in a while.
shed a tear to this song
"I feel the white light of time, as it flickers by" 0w0 that shit was deep...
This beat is still fire as I'm listening to it 9 years later
Still here nearing 2024!!!!
Still an absolutely amazing song. Well done
i find this song really sad
Well.he was right, this song got him a wife after all... hehehe
It really is a sad song, it have so much general truth in it. Classic Song, Loving it just as much as back then.
Dear god, it's been ten years, really? Ooooh, that hurts my soul somewhat. And yet the song is as great as I remember.
I still come back to this masta piece
I know that's probably not Oxhorn's intention but, dude, seriously thanks for the wake-up call! I quit the game when I realize just how many years of "white light" has "flickered by" before I realized I actually had goals in the real world to accomplish. Grinding rep at work instead of online. Achieving sales goals instead of quest goals. Advancing through the levels of my company instead of through a guild. It's nice. Every now and again I come back to this song and just lament how long it took me to cotton on to the real world. At least I'm not one of those people who STILL play and has played since vanilla.
Civilization is what's messed up. MMOs are more like hunting & gathering, how humans are supposed to live.
this is the most backwards thing ive heard in a long time
Hunter Gathering doesn't work. Back in those days, infant mortality rates where through the roof. It's not predictable and it's not survivable. "Lets walk over there, Hope to find some food that....HOPE to find, oh there might be another tribe there too"...
*sigh* Mort is the reason noone else can ever get number 1 in arenas.
i like the happy but sad sound it has its always been my favorite of oxhorn's
Still listen to this. Such a great song.
We miss ya Oxhorn.
All rise for the Warcrafters National Anthem!
Now that I'm playing FFXIV I feel sad that this song use to perfectly describe my life lol. Oh well.. Time to do the same here
Ha, gotta love the days when 5000 gold was good.
I'm still listening to this song...
It's one of my all time favorites...
also: Gnomes in Gimp-Gear!
Coming back to this ever year for nostalgic memories of vanilla wow🖤
I miss you Oxhorn! :(
we all do, buddy.
Idky but I love the Professor Evil part
I love this part! 3:13
It seems it's not just me then! "New achievements, grinding faction, hoarding badges, ZG action!"
Still amazing banger 11 years later, god damn i love ur vids
It warms my heart to see comments on these videos, even today.
Anyone here in 2019? Still, Oxhorn is still the best WoW Machinima maker ever!
This song reminds me, that i wasted 9 fucking years of my life playing WoW, doing the same shit. Kinda' sad.
You needed nine years of gaming for a big revelation. Some people need an entire life of meditation and asceticism for that.
germanvisitor2 The new buy to lvl 90 thing really just proves how Blizzard begins to want money over gameplay
Tobias Kanstrup
I got that feeling when the opening of ICC introduced aoe dmg as the one and only way to play.
Tobias Kanstrup Think before you speak.
Zvane Sunfist I'm just stating my opinion
No lady gagas were hurt in the making of this video.
Today I woke up and this song was playing in my head. It feels really strange because I don't play WoW anymore. Last time when I logged in with my char there's an list of offline for years friends
I don't know. I miss the time when we were playing together. And when I was young and believed that life became better
Oh why can't life be like the game..
10 years later and this song is still as amazing as i remember it
It's a shame that Ox makes no Videos anymore :/
He still has his own weekly thingy.
Still not the same tho
LufiXx he has another channel
Craaaaft^_^
Craftelchen
this is so sad
You're sad. I have been watching oxhorn ever since I was ten I'm 18 now... Why'd you have to quit making machinima's oxhorn.... WHY!!!!!
Just like so many people here point out; loved it as a kid playing WOTLK, but now that I hear it as a 24yo that's quit WoW a long time ago but still plays videogames and met many bumps in the road, some thanks to gaming... Damn. Real shit. Life is more than gaming.
To me, this song just SCREAMS nostalgia. Oh how i miss the past.
Lirycs?
Oxhorn.
My name!
In my own song,
Oh yeah, oh yeah,
oh yeah, oh yeah.
I have 300 mounts.
5 tiers of raiding gear,
I have more pets than you
or anyone from there to here.
You can’t compete with me,
so don’t you even try.
I gank 10 dwarves a day
and punt gnomes until they fly!
My guild does ICC
and all the toughest raids.
If we played Starcraft 2
we’d one-shot the Queen of Blades.
And so I’m so confused
despite the elves I maim,
in real life I’m a n00b;
oh why can’t life be like the game!?
I feel the white light of time
as it flickers by.
When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy,
who’s life aint like the game.
I have 5000 gold
and all achievement points.
You want the violet drake?
Then earn it blit, lik-like, muh-muh-mEEE!
I am the faction king,
earned exalted rewards,
including Ravenholdt and
Hydraxian Waterlords.
I’ve invested my time
and built myself a life.
I’m sure my pwning skills could
earn me a girlfriend or wife.
And so I’m so confused
and find it rather lame,
that I am all alone;
oh why can’t life be like the game?
E-e-e-eight to five, ten an hour,
-fast food-
embrace the malaise
-worthless degree-
shut the door and power on
for the rest of my d-d-d-d-days.
I feel the white light of time,
as it flickers by.
When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy,
whose life aint like the game.
Dance girl, shake your thick tail.
Dance girl, shake your thick tail!
Come on girl, ride my epic mount
and then shake your thick tail!
I’m every player’s fantasy,
with skills seen only in your dreams.
I’ll take you on five at a time,
’cuz I’m my own arena team!
Pwning, punting, casting, fearing,
camping corpses, laughing jeering,
mining, crafting, buying, selling,
ninja-looting legendaries.
Driving, working, eating, sleeping,
coughing, sneezing, wheezing, breathing,
every day is just the same
oh why can’t life be like the game!?
Hello darling. Will you be my girl?
I’ll shard your purples and let you ride my rocket mount.
I lesser-than-three you, my sweet.
Save a spot in the raid for me,
and I’ll place a gem in your sockets.
Day-in, day-out, going without,
social graces, friendly faces,
new achievements, grinding faction,
hoarding badges, CG action.
I feel the white light of time,
as it flickers by.
When I’m unplugged I’m just a guy,
whose life aint like the game.

Happy Now :P
2024 anyone
yes sir, just for nostalgia
Transcendental...
This is one of the most awesome World of warcraft vid I've ever seen.
You are a genious
This is really the culmination of talent of every video you have made before. I am extremely impressed and envious of your command of the model viewer and the various rendering programs this takes. Just awesome!
