Watch: SL Machinima Makes Most Literal Music Video for "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" Ever Made Possible

From Tiara Ashley comes this fun and visually impressive SL machinima music video to The Beatles' hallucinogenic classic "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" (as covered by Elton John). I've seen other music videos which attempt to capture the headtrip lyrics of "Lucy" with abstract or evocative imagery, but because Tiara shot it Second Life, she was able to be incredibly literal with nearly every other line.

So, say, when you hear about being on a boat on the river with tangerine trees and marmalade skies, those skies are literally marmalade,  or about rocking horse people eating marshmallow pies -- you see actual rocking horse people. And yes, for newspaper taxies which appear by the shore...

The taxis. Are literally (virtually) there.

Smashing work by Tiara, who as it turns out, has shot many more SL machinima videos for many other classic songs.

Yeah,if this is the BEST SL machinima music video you've ever seen then this is the only one you've ever seen.

I always thought it went "The girl with colitis goes by." Just as well it's not.
