Happy Halloween folks. We’re now onto the recs for fandom creativity that has happened since last year’s buffyversetop5. I’ve noticed a lot of great vids this year, so here’s the first of two 2020 vid posts

Welcome to the Jungle by ethereal. This is a beautifully edited Ensemble vid with an emphasis on Buffy for obvious reasons!

Top 5 YouTube Covers of Buffy Songs in 2020

There has been a ton of Buffy fan music this year. I recommend reading the video descriptions on YouTube as long as you can bear being reminded of the current affairs that inspired some of it. If you cannot bear that today, maybe skip the "Where Do We Go from Here" video -- it could be pretty painful. I also recommend watching the videos, not only listening. The visuals add a lot to the experience.
One of these is not a song originally written for BtVS (though it is part of the Buffy soundtrack, and that's where the singer found it), but the video is so soothing and delightful to me that I couldn't leave it out.

Drum cover by Adam Turner (I like seeing what the drummer is doing)
String quartet version by Bowjangles (don't miss the costumes and faces!)
Doomer cover by CassiniProjekt (atmospheric!)
BtVS and AtS theme piano mashup by Andrew Wu (so impressive!)
BtVS theme in the style of Vulfpeck by Gazzerazz (my favorite, honestly)

Spuffy WIPs posted or updated in 2020

[double_dutchess]

I don't usually read WIPs, but I am making an exception for these ones, because they're just so good or because I know they're going to be good. I may be cheating a bit here, as several of the WIPs in this list were not started in 2020, but since they all got updated this year I think it still counts. To compensate, two of them are REALLY recent.
