All of the latest Mists of Pandaria newsWoW Moviewatch: End of the World (of Warcraft)

I never usually answer my phone when the number is blocked, but this time, I had a hunch. Swiping across the screen, the gravelly voice immediately came across the line. My eyes narrowed, grip tightening around the metal frame. "We have Gray. You know what we want." This time ... it's personal.
Nymh and Sharm, two of the most prolific machinima voices out there, come together for End of the World (of Warcraft), a parody of R.E.M.'s awesome It's The End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) . The vocals are on par with other Nymh offerings, and I did enjoy the lyrics, giving it a big "A" for effort. Some of the rhymes are there for filler purpose, but is pretty good for an R.E.M. parody. I am enjoying these refreshing reminders that WoW really is changing substantially in less than a month, and sometimes the gravity of that is a little bit lost on me. Enjoy.

It's definitely time to stock up on ammo and canned food if Cranius is in drag.
Nice blue dress, though ;D

Ha, yes... Cranius in a blue dress... nice touch! xD
In case there's anyone who doesn't know what this is a reference to:

Nice song :)
His singing was awefull... But the lyrics were great :) Plus Sharm made up for his bad singing ;)
Though I'll never forget that bitch for making fun of the Draenei XD
Especially seeing the hypocricy as he himself was a "blood elf" :D

Pretty good, but a bit long, and I didn't even realise what song they were covering until the chorus.

I adore Nyhm and always have. I even got the book he wrote for Christmas that was in the vein of Shel Silerstein. So, clearly I'm biased towards his sense of humor. And I loved the slipped in references to the recent dramas in the machinima world lately, such as who would not be appearing in this video (That had to do with the Halloween collaboration drama). The quick throw to Summergale, and mentioning Cranius were fantastic too. And calling Deathwing Leno Dragon killed me. He really does have that chin, doesn't he? ;) Is Nyhm the best singer? Nah. But there's quite a few of singers that sell in the store that can't sing either. I don't think he's the worst, and I think people get overly critical when he's mostly doing it for the comedy aspects, not because he's trying to make a singing career. Overall, I loved it. It was really creative video footage and a great way to approach it all.

I am guessing you are all deaf.... This song was definitely below average. I mean really.... Have you listened to it? It was a nice try though.

The "news report" idea has been done before:

Nyhm should stick to writing, producing and directing these vids (coz he does a great job), but get someone else to sing em. Sharm however, souinds divine as always.
This video with Aergor instead of Nyhm would have been much better.
Just my opinion.
