I already mentioned that I found at the official site that Al did indeed direct the video, but then I found this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9bSme47xYA" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
And in the description it confirms that it was shot in one long continuous take.
Well, we already have known for a while that that it was done in one take and he directed it, and I posted that video over a month ago!

Oh man, Some of the comments on that video made me cringe. I noticed he sounds different here I know it's old but still he sounds tired. Poor guy :(

I think he just hadn't gotten a chance to practice singing it enough, and I also wonder if he had trouble hearing the band from backstage. I think his upcoming performance on Craig Ferguson's show should be a lot better.

I just got the "That's what Kanye West keeps telling me" line. I thought it was saying that Kanye drops a lot of names, so the fact that he thinks Al drops names constantly really is saying something.

Whoops.

:lol:
I had to look up what name dropping was, but then it was obvious.
Now I remembered to finally look up what "pixie sticks" and "monsoon" are. Still don't get the latter - if monsoon is a wind, how can you be in a middle of it...?

I thought that a monsoon was a period of really heavy rain?

A Monsoon is a really heavy period of rain. I'd hate to be stuck in one.

I think I missed something. Why are we talking about monsoons and pixie sticks?
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:

"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11

So awesome!
