WoWFlix is a new weekly column featuring videos from around the web related to World of Warcraft. If you find something you'd like to be featured, leave a comment or send a tweet to @Heartbourne.
The cast and creators behind The Guild, including the widely popular Felicia Day of Dr. Horrible fame, have released a new, poppy song and accompanying music video entitled "Do You Want to Date My Avatar?". While The Guild isn't specifically WoW-related, the innuendos will be familiar to any WoW fanatic.
Felicia Day did an amazing job with the lyrics, and the costumes are fantastic. Its one of the few times that I look at cosplayers and am actually impressed. Even the people who are supposed to be intentionally silly and awkward come off so well. The whole cast of The Guild crew show up in the video: Bladezz gives the camera some love, Clara sings some backup vocals, and Vork and Zaboo spit some fresh rhymes. The song is addicting and will stay in my geeky playlist.
If you haven't checked out The Guild, be sure to go to their website and check out their Youtube channel.
You can grab the song from Amazon, the video from iTunes, or both of them on Xbox Live/Zune Marketplace.
Lyrics:
Hang with me in my MMO
So many places we can go
You’ll never see my actual face
Our love, our love will be in a virtual space
I’m craving to emote with you
So many animations I can do
Be anything you want me to be
Come on, come on, share a potion with me
CHORUS:
Do you wanna date my Avatar
She’s a star
And she’s hotter than reality by far
Wanna date my Avatar?
You can type commands
I’ve got slots for what I hold in my hands
Don’t care what’s in your character bank
How ‘bout, How ‘bout a little tank and spank
Grab your mouse and stroke the keys
In cyberspace there’s no disease
Pick a time, send a tell to me
Just pay, just pay a small subscription fee
CHORUS
Single white human,
Looking for group
My stats so high
Don’t be out of the loop
Got an uber-leet staff
That you can equip
Close your mouths ladies
This is pure nerd-nip
I’m a pixel-based fantasy
A man who is stoic
I hack and slash
Who the heck’s more heroic?
Check me out:
Cloth armor
Fits me like a glove
Just twitta a time
And I’m ready for love
Hang with me in my MMO
So many places we can go
I’m better than a real world quest
You’ll touch, my plus 5 to dexterity vest
What role do you wanna play
I’m just a click away night or day
And if you think I’m not the one
Log off, Log off and we’ll be done
