Guitar Hero 3 Made Me Buy A Music Video From iTMS

I have never purchased any videos from the iTunes Store.  All the videos I currently have on my iPod are free offerings that they have offered.  Wait, that's a lie...I did have to do catchup with Heroes Season 1 and picked up a couple of videos.  However, the thought of purchasing a music video made me laugh.  Never would I consider purchasing a music video for my iPod.  Well, on Wednesday I finally did.

So I have spent some time with Guitar Hero 3 completing all the songs on the Hard difficulty and working on the Expert difficulty.  One thing I love about the Guitar Hero series is that they always introduce me to some songs that have flown under the radar.  Muse's Knights of Cydonia is one of those songs.  First time I played it on Hard I laughed.  I thought the song was silly.  Then when I played it on Expert, I realized the fun of the song.

After doing some research, I found the music video for the song and my jaw hit the floor.  The song went from silly to epic.  The video is one of the most amazing videos I have seen in a while.  I loved it so much, I had to buy it and always have it with me on my iPod.  Yeah, I could have done some dastardly downloading and encoded the video for the iPod, but I wanted a quality version of the video.  Now, every time I play this song, I can not help but think of this video and wanting to perform at it's epic standards.
