Yahtzee doing a Dan Bull style reply to this would cause so much awesome that the world would explode.
Rebecca Mayes Muses: Love Song for Yahtzee

Sometimes I wonder if I am in the same world as everyone else.
Chances of Yahtzee commenting on this at all in any form during a video, especially with song, is pretty much zero. Your best hope is in his post-video columns, and even then you're likely to see just one sentence about it.
Some seem to be expecting some sort of 'retaliation' in which case it shows they don't really understand Mayes or Yahtzee at all, or at least not this video. There was nothing to retaliate against, it is meant to be interpreted and many singer song writers give their songs the possiblity of multiple meanings. Even if there was something to retaliate against Yahtzee is not that way; he'd ignore it and continue doing whatever the hell he wants.
My interpretation:
A mix of impressing with insults and probably a reaction to a comment/sequence of comments made in his Sims 3 review exagerated for the sake of comedy.
My own reaction/comments:
Song was good, not sure why you choose to do Yahtzee's drawing board effects badly unless there is a reason they needed to be slightly different with a little bit of pixelated white around the edges of objects. Would love to see what the actual video portion would look like cleaned up slightly. Also when Mayes was wearing the/a hat did you just crop yahtzee's hat and use paint's inversion thing? That's what it looks like.

Unforunately this style of music isn't for me. Nevertheless she is clever.
If you have a moderate voice and a moderate look, which in turn leaves you with next-to-no chance of making it big, then where better a place to plug yourself?
Yup. A community filled with nerdy, female deprived guys! You can't go wrong! Go a bit punk with a hint of goth; claim you like computer games and you'll have every guy thinking your attainable! WIN!

Wow, either she was trying to find a way to permanently repel Yahtzee, or was trying to appeal to his 'unique' sense of humour.
Either way it was an impressive video.

I kinda liked it, good work, miss, thumbs up for your good looks and cuteness too.
Hope Yahtzee will strike back, that has awesome potential
.
But she IS into him, that much I'm sure of.
WTG Yahtzee for making women everywhere wet

.I'm guessing it's for the "it's a trap!" effect, like get him too drunk and then stab him while sleeping, but not before having one wild night with. Would need a bigger screwdriver, tho, since Yazthee's The Man.NickIsCool said:

The song is okay, nothing special. I never did think her music was all that great. However whats more fun than watching Rebecca Mayes try to be funny in a music video love/hating Yahtzee...watching all this fanboy drama unfold on the forums. LOL you people are taking this much to seriously.
Ah its okay, I know your not trying to start an arguement, its just a bunch of opinions on a forum for video games anyway in the long runKarathos said:if you've already established from past videos that you don't like her material - why do you tune in and comment?
Not trying to start a flamewar or nothing (just happen to be up at five in the morning and struck by boredom, silly Finnish summer
Anyway, the only reason I clicked on it for was because of the Yahtzee mention, and I thought "Perhaps I might have been wrong, i'll give this a listen to" which i'm sure a lot of other people clicked for, the yahtzee mention.
I would rather stab myself in the eye than go out with your mosigynist mind.NickIsCool said:awesome song as always
i loved all the references to ZP
whats with the screwdriver at the end though?
i guess love is a crazy thing, isnt it
I'm not sure I agree that Yahtzee is a misogynist. He does frequently make 'tit' and menstruation jokes, but not anymore often than he makes 'dick' jokes, and otherwise mocks hyper-masculinity -- we might not want to confuse a very explicit sense of humor with sexism.
And specifically on the female front, Yahtzee seems to go out of his way to highlight when a game is being misogynistic, and actually takes offense when games like Bayonetta try to appeal to 'his' demographic through blatant objectification of women as sex objects.
Good troll, though.

Look, if any of you think you can predict the actions of Yahtzee... you can't. Let's keep in mind that this is all endorsed by the Escapist. For all we know, they've been dating for two months and have two kids on the way and a puppy named Vladimir. This little exchange is probably just for appearances.
Thought the lyrics were awkward, title was puzzling, but what disturbs me most are the clueless or mystified comments from the audience... maybe I'm just too old... but no.
