A happy song about a sad vampire who lost his wife & now is contemplating walking into the sunshine on the next Blue Sunny Day. I hope you m8s are doing better. 💪 'It gets easier. But you have to do it everyday! That's the hard part! But it DOES get easier.' ( _cough cough_ Bojack Horseman - Poison 🖖)
This is the good old days I remember.. When I was just a kid and I was fascinated in WoW and these videos.. I used to constantly look at Spiffworld's videos and it got me into Jonathan Coulton. A great musician, with Spiffworld to make Jonathan's music into awesome videos! The most perfect combination.
One more here. I still listen to JoCo all the time, but I probably would never have learned the genius that is his music if it wasn't for Spiffworld giving me these awesome Machinima's to watch whenever WoW was under maintenance. It's crazy to think that this particular video was one of his newer ones that I got excited to see come out at the time, and it's already over a decade old. I'll drink to the time slipping by bit.
That ending almost always makes me cry. Call me a softie if you like, something about it just hits me. "All at once I've had enough, as if I'm made of sterner stuff I take a breath and open up the door. Dawn breaks hard and falls on me, for just one moment, I can see the pale blue sky. ;_; I close my eyes because the world's so bright and beautiful I have to look away. Braced against the beauty of another perfect day. As I go to pieces and the breeze blows me away, One more blue sunny day, Sunny day......... " For one last, fleeting moment, in his life of darkness, with all his regrets and sadness he has one moment, one glorious moment where he can see the sun again, where he can feel it's warmth, where he perhaps feels happiness again, for one last, fleeting moment before he burns up and is gone. It's sad and beautiful and tragic all at the same time! Brilliantly written AND sung! The video is quite brilliantly done as well, showing the animals and sun and blue sky, all the things he's missed, longed to see, and finally is able to again, for that last wonderful moment, which ultimately means his death. ;_;
This song is brilliantly written! "Several hours later I'm the only one awake. All these streets are empty it's just me and my mistake. (Which could be referring to how he lost his love, OR, it could be referring to how he became a vampire. ) "One by one the stars go out this black sky turns to grey, one more blue, sunny day. " (COULD be referring to the coming dawn, OR it could be referring to millenia, aeons passing as his immortal unlife continues on as the stars literally burn out and die, yet he "lives" on. Brilliant! )
MidniightHorizon's got it right -- that's a split screen showing you the Baron as well as the rising sun. It was intentional. I'm glad you liked some of my other special effects though. It's always gratifying when people notice the hard work that gets put into the videos. Thanks! :)
I was a fan of yours since the first Code Monkey Video.. that was apparently 13 years ago and this video is 10 years old. Fuck it still gets me. Miss you Spiff
yea, this video completely blows it for the genius innuendo of the song. its better if you listen to it for the first time, then given the right context, listen to it again. Then boom, mind blowing awesomeness.
Have you never gone to pieces when you get emotional about something as beautiful as the Baron is seeing? I've sure been blown away by something amazing, and I'll bet the Baron feels the same way about having the morning breeze on his face again. ;) I'm just saying, it's a clever bit of wordplay from Mr. Coulton.
Now I think of this song after I look at anything involved with vampires, and I have it entirely committed to memory. That is with no partial thanks to your video! =D
Blue Sunny Day (and the associated video) is my favorite of Coulton's; I think it's his most musical song, and it's got more replay value than any of his other stuff for me
awesum job, very nicely put together. I didnt catch the double ententra with the word blue till I read the discription after wathcing, I was thinking wow yeah thats right holy crap that just made the song even cooler.
another interpretation of this song is, the guy singing is a depressed young man that just lost recently had his heart broken by someone he loved, and he just thinks that everyone else is happy but him, and that everything around him is mocking him by being so perfect :o
My absolute favorite song by JoCo! I've watched this plenty of times, and I don't think I could do you justice with any sort of compliment! It told an amazing story that was funny, witty, sad, and dramatic, all in one video less than five minutes long! The only mistake I found with the picture in that video was the purple line drawn in the middle of the screen from 2:50 to 2:53. Other than that, it was flawless. You do Joco's songs a great justice, mate. Love your work. :)
@WOWLionblood In Adobe After Effects, you add each element to the shot separately. So the woman is on one layer, the man on another, the vampire on another and the background on another. Then you render the whole thing out as a single clip that goes into your video editor for the final product.
As always, spiffworld, this is a brilliant merger of visual and lyrical storytelling. Your directing/composition is so detailed and artistic, but funny too. And the tiny details are always a treat. I've seen this video many times but only today noticed that at 1:41 - 1:45 when our hero stops by a store window, everything has a reflection except him. (I'm slow!) The best compliment I can give is that your aesthetic perfectly matches and illustrates JoCo's music. Bravo and thanks!
This song makes me sad and happy at the same time. I come to this vid often to listen to it and I really like Spiff's vids I wish he would come back :(
Man, i love your videos so much they fit extremely well with the song and i cant appreciate all the work you put into this enough! Jonathan would be proud ^^
Great work Mike. I just posted your interview as a video response. You'll have to OK it. This is definately one of my favorite videos you've done so far.
Wow, this is a master piece. Very rarely am I impressed at story telling, due to the amount of SHIT out there. But not only does this song match your video so well, your video is a great piece of story telling. Well done! I'll be watching this one again, and again, and again.
i honestly love how your videos have devoloped. I seem to love every new video more than the previous ones, yet they are all still very amazing. Kudos 0_o
@spiffworld You're awsome in video editing. I have loved your videos, even after I stoppede playing WoW. I hope you will continue to make more vidoes like these. (:
Ive seen this video so many times, and only now I just realized the girl isn't someone he pines for, but his passed on wife.. well. that just makes this sad but upbeat song even more sad.. poor vampire.. and especially poow kittycat.
Spiff, wherever you are now, I want you to know that your Wow music videos carried me through my childhood.
I am still here listening! Spiff we love you.
Less goooo
@@aaronpoole5655 I’m so glad people still watch his videos nothing makes me as nostalgic about anything than these videos
Same here haha
Ik been watching em since he first did it and it got me into JoCo who's just a fantastic artist. Love all his songs
When depression slaps me harder than usual, I spend an hour listening to JoCo and having a good cry.
You just perfectly described how I feel right now...Hope you're doing better..!

TheDiadara SAME! So nostalgic
Best machinima song vids ever
word!! back in elementary school coming home to play WoW and listen to JoCo.. the good ol days..
I watched these things since I was 5 or six. Can’t remember exactly.
Its so wild to know this came out 14 years ago. Thank you Spiff, hope you're doing well 💙

I used to relate to this song on a weirdly literal level. I can’t go outside most days because of a sensitivity to sunlight.
FINALLY! I see another person sensitive to the sunlight!

This video is the official music video to this song in my eyes. So much heckin' nostalgia, guys
More than 10 years since the first time I saw this, and I realize now there's an elf at 1:12 doing coke
I absolutely love this song. Sometimes sad songs should be upbeat :)
I love it when people get the jokes. :)
I was a fan of yours since the first Code Monkey Video.. that was apparently 13 years ago and this video is 10 years old. Fuck it still gets me. Miss you Spiff

What a playful yet powerful song.
Still here after all these years
he doesnt hate them, he wants to go outside but hes a vampire, so hes trapped inside the dark
Johnathon Coulton creates another beautiful song and Spiff creates a fantastic piece of art. Three cheers to you both! (and five stars)
Man, this brings me back. I didn't think it was this long ago.
I absolutely love this song and this video is perfect for it.
Have you never gone to pieces when you get emotional about something as beautiful as the Baron is seeing? I've sure been blown away by something amazing, and I'll bet the Baron feels the same way about having the morning breeze on his face again. ;) I'm just saying, it's a clever bit of wordplay from Mr. Coulton.
ahh, My awsome day just got better. My number one, all time favorite JoCo song, and then french Re:Your Brains.
Thank you Spiff, and happy holidays.
I want this to be played at my funeral.
This music video is a masterpiece. Inspired
This song gives the word "Perfect" a new meaning. This is one of the greatest songs i have ever heard!
Keep up the good work:)
Man, i had such an awful day, this was just what i needed, thanks,mate!
3:16 almost a full decade before Thanos snapped!
Mister Stark, I don't feel so good.
Watching this when I was younger, I thought it was just about a vampire.
Goddamn.
Please explain? Isin't it about a vampire ?
@@98gabrius it could be it could also be about depression
Kodiak Joco said it was a vampire, but you gotta admit, it dies have a double meaning.
I live this! They played this after an episode of Rifftrax Live on Pluto.❤️💋
This video is fits the song SOOOOOO well, im not even kidding. Your use of characters, lyrical cues, and settings is amazing. Great Job!
I Love the work that went into this video
OMG!!! This must be the first video Spiff EVER have made which ends happy! :D
Now I think of this song after I look at anything involved with vampires, and I have it entirely committed to memory. That is with no partial thanks to your video! =D
Mr spiff, you were my childhood. Thank you, man. You even replied to my channel comment back in the day, when those were a thing.
Thanks for enjoying my stuff. :)

My absolute favorite song by JoCo!

You do Joco's songs a great justice, mate. Love your work. :)
Is it weird that I felt something sad after watching this?
I'm literally crying so no you're good
this song always pulls my heart strings very saddening ....
Aww, a sad ending, but a cool song and a great video Spiff. The cat was just adorable. ^.^

Sad, but wonderful. Spiff... i love your videos. Good luck with what ur doing these days. Your talents. Thats clear to all of us... k. thx. bye ;).

loled at Re: your brains at the end =)
Wow, great job on the video! JoCo for every win!
Lovely song and a fantastic video to visually represent it! Good job, dude!
LOL I love this song! It's got a definite 60's vibe to it. Reminds me of something Brian Wilson might write. Catchy as all get out.
Brilliant! As always!
it's about time this vid became the first one when you search this song
Beautiful work as always.

Me too. I prefer clouds, and I like rain! \o/
Great work Mike. I just posted your interview as a video response. You'll have to OK it. This is definately one of my favorite videos you've done so far.
Another amazing vid 5/5
Love the french version of Eat your brains =)
Mike your so awesome, ive seen all your vids and none of them disappoint :D
Wow, this is a master piece. Very rarely am I impressed at story telling, due to the amount of SHIT out there. But not only does this song match your video so well, your video is a great piece of story telling. Well done! I'll be watching this one again, and again, and again.

beautiful, just beautiful
damn good job with this one spiff! this one and future soon are my favorites :> keep it up
His French is... umm.. interesting. But I loved the video! Wonderful as always Spiff :)
It's a common misconception. You see, some people mistake the vampire's body bursting into flames as sparkles.
Love it, Spiff!
Jonathan Coulton has the most soothing voice.
nice job with the machinima, and oooh french version of eat your brains =)
Really great... as everytime.
I love the scene at 1:55. :)
you're so right
time flies : s
@spiffworld You're awsome in video editing. I have loved your videos, even after I stoppede playing WoW. I hope you will continue to make more vidoes like these. (:
