Im assuming it would be more like Amish Paradise or White & Nerdy. Sunshine shining and he'd be running around doing things in stores and restaurants, and at home with this girl he's singing too. So many possibilities!

Well, in a perfect world, yes, but I'm afraid their probably isn't a budget for that.

When I said stores, I mean like at the laundromat, or a corner store. McDonalds of course, and riding the bus would have to be an occurence. I would think he has plenty of money to shoot videos.

It'd be great if a song about having no budget gets high budget video
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?

Most music videos are made with a budget of over $100,000. As much as I'd love to see one, I really don't think that Al has oodles of cash to spend on a full-budget video for a 4-year old song.

That would be great! The definition of irony right there!

I wonder why he didn't bother with creating a video for this song when it was on Internet Leaks. It would have been a great push for the album, but it might have exhausted too many resources for a simple EP. Oh well, the past is the past. I just hope this video is as good as I'm expecting, hopefully even better.

I think the whole point of WYL was to see how quickly he could conceive a parody, get permission for it, record, and then release it. Al seemed to have taken a great bit of pride in going through that whole process while the T.I. song was still #1, so he probably thought that waiting for a video to be produced--even a low-budget quickie--would have taken too much time for the purpose of this experiment.

what would be hilarious would be, since the song is about the economy and falling on financial hard times.. is if he played it out as if the video fell on hard times, and they released it on VHS cause that was all they could afford to do :lol:

It would actually be far more expensive to release the video on VHS than it would to release it digitally.
