The "Foil" video is good and all, but even without live-action Al, the "Word Crimes" video is just so layered with jokes. It's brilliant.

"Foil" was the best. I was surprised by how much it elevated the song for me. I enjoy listening to the song so much more now that I've seen the video.

"Word Crimes" and "Foil" are pretty close competitors, but I voted for "Foil" because it adds so much to the song.

"Foil" is the best video, because it finally gets the point of the song across. "Word Crimes" is the best song/video combo, because they're both just so darn good.

If Al were to have released a first single, I would've been happiest with either Word Crimes or Foil. Those are my top 2 parodies on the album for sure.

Tacky, Foil and Word Crimes are equally brilliant for completely different reasons. Then there's Handy, meh.

Re: What's your favorite video so far?
Foil was the obvious choice because Foil is my favorite song off the album, and the Lorde hair was perfect.

I hate to vote for a video that doesn't even have Al in it, but the Word Crimes video is absolutely brilliant. It's not just hilarious, but visually stimulating and highly rewatchable. It's also the best song on the album, so there's that.
I do love the Tacky and Foil videos quite a lot though.

Foil, as it reminded me of the classic Al music videos (dunno why), but very close runner up is Word Crimes.

So do we know the upcoming videos? Are they Lame Claim to Fame, Mission Statement, and My Own Eyes?
