I just thought I'd share this neat clip as it blew me away. The ending in particular.

Soud on is a must!

Yes, I've seen that and it's super. The song is "Wizards in Winter" by Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Their album "The Lost Christmas" is possibly the best ever Christmas album I've heard.

(assuming it's the video with crazy Christmas lights, the link isn't working anymore.)

If it's the same one thinking of, yes... amazing stuff.

I actually downloaded it at work and just looped it for hours to listen to the music. I'd love to get ahold of an mp3 or something of it.

There's a "part 2" as well but... I really didn't like it as much because the music is a rather jazzy version of Jingle Bells which I found hard to listen to.

From what I understand, there's some nifty MIDI synchronization doodad that was used.  I shudder to think what would result if it fell into the wrong hands (mine).

Best video ever. I was amazed when i first saw it a couple of weeks ago, and still watch the first one. (I get goosebumps for some reason). I didn't like the second vid due to the craptastic music.  I agree, that Wizards in Winter is an amazing song. I listen to it all of the time on Napster now.

I have both vids on my computer. You can download them from ebaums world if you'd like to have them for future viewing pleasure.

Great stuff.

WOW! :o IMO the first link by jaz was better than the second link by Kinoko. The music in the second link was a bit weird and kind of took away from the display, where-as in the first link the music was great to listen to.
