We're still in the grips of Winter Veil hysteria here, with the occasional shout-out to real-life Christmas. Today's video parody is titled Stoney Baby. It's an obvious parody of Santa Baby, aimed right down the barrel at Rich Maloy of Big Crits. Written and performed by Erin Campbell, Stoney Baby has plenty of puns and jokes to mark the time.
I enjoyed the animation in the video, especially, because it looks like it was created nearly entirely from in-game footage. That's rare enough nowadays that it almost feels unique to see videos based on the game itself. So for this holiday season, Stoney Baby has a little bit of it all: a fun song, great voice, and in-game animation. Check it out and let us know what you think.

Rich is one of the top Enhance Theory Crafters out there and hes advice was very helpful back on BigHitBox days and when he penned Totem Talk Enhancement edition.
He taught me to feed my wolves and some many other tricks to boost my output. I do solid dps on my guild and it great part its still because of hes advice.
The lyrics were cute. But the last few days...can anyone who is gonna take the time to put together a video at least learn how to sing on tune or maybe find someone that can to sing for you. Again, nice video but almost unwatchable cause I was cringing the whole time. As least one positive: you tried. Nice job on the video portion of it.

This video is just... just terrible.
The lyrics are bad, and the vocals are bad. It looks like the video was slapped together in windows movie maker too.

Great job, O! Nevermind the critics.

I think it's pretty good, specially when you take into consideration that Oestrus is not a voice actress, just an amazing raider/blogger/priest.

I spent a lot of time reading BigHitBox while learning how to play my Enhance shaman during Wrath. Merry Christmas, Mr. Maloy.

I love a good old-fashioned ingame video :D
Musically though, while the occasional brave amateur is charming, even I'm getting a little overloaded.

Simple challenge to the haters. Go and do better. Oh, you cannot? Well, well. Thought so.

Good lyrics, would be better if Sharm sang it.
