"Yule Log Medley Collab" is a high quality collaboration released by the SiIvaGunner team. The video is a medley featuring dozens of video game references in a span of 18 minutes. All of the music for this holiday collab were purposefully picked for originally not having anything to do with Christmas, the holidays, or winter, but are given new arrangements inspired by holiday classics. Many songs are from levels with the exact opposite theming, like "At Doom's Gate", "Gerudo Valley", "Vampire Killer", and "Delfino Plaza".
Its visuals consist entirely of a looping video of a fireplace. The concept of this video is a reference to the Yule Log, which was conceived by New York television station WPIX in the 1960s and whose format has been copied by many networks since then.

- Many arrangements were inspired by existing holiday music. "Beware the Forest's Mushrooms" with "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy", "Grasslands 1" with "All I Want For Christmas Is You", "Gourmet Race" with "Frosty The Snowman", "Green Hill Zone" with "Christmas Time Is Here" (from A Charlie Brown Christmas), "Delfino Plaza" with "The Snow Miser Song", "Vampire Killer" with "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch", "Song of Storms" with "Happy Xmas (War Is Over)", and "Super Mario Bros. 2 Overworld" with "Snow halation".
