Caves & Cliffs: The Musical

Caves & Cliffs: The Musical is a musical short centered around new features added during the Caves & Cliffs update, initially released during Minecraft Live 2021. The video revolves around Steve and Alex being taught about then-new additions, told to them by song, while various things interrupt the sequence.

Steve and Alex are building a house, when they're suddenly approached by a non-corporeal voice, asking if they've discovered everything in part one of the Caves & Cliffs update. They shrug, triggering an earthquake. They fall into a display of many new features, including candles, glow lichens, and amethyst geodes. While Alex is mining amethyst, she's interrupted by a screaming goat. The song continues, stressing those are only a fraction of the new features, listing off dripleaves, more options for dirt paths, powder snow, copper ore, raw ore, and lightning rods. After announcing that last feature, a wandering trader is electrocuted.

The song moves on to explain oxidation and the use of honeycombs to wax them. The song then establishes blocks of raw copper, but Steve notices a goat and expects it to scream. It doesn't, but a second goat next to them does. The song then introduces axolotls, and them being compatible with buckets, before moving onto glow squids and their ambience, as well as their ink being usable on signs and item frames. The song then mentions dripstone caves and deepslate ores. As Steve and Alex climb up a mountain, using spyglasses, the song concludes by stressing more content is being added, before a goat screams again and Steve falls.
