Fun fact, I'm actually scared of rabbits. Got bit by one as a kid, Donnie Darko at too young an age, and now we're here. Still beautiful.

The Death Cab for Cutie one was really nice and it made me tear up a little, so I'll go with that one.

Well considering "Free" is my nomination, I have to write a few things about it.

While Darwin Deez isn't the most exciting musician (not that I have anything against his music), he has managed to put out (or be a part of anyway) one fun, creative and clever video after another. Also see You Can't Be My Girl from last year, or Radar Detector... Or others.

Now this one, it seems like the song was written specifically for the video, not the other way around. And I just think it's incredibly clever, from the many "how did they do that" moments, to just the general concept of it, showing the monotone and repetitive job by literally repeating the scene over and over, but in the way that the "story" (if you can call it that) progresses with Darwin the character realizing that he's trapped in the cycle (or that he's "not free"), before managing to break out and start a new one. I'm not gonna pretend this has any social commentary or anything like that, I just think it is done in a really clever way.

I honestly dislike both of them, I'm not too sure what's supposed to be special about either. Abstain.

Both are smart (if you note on the Death Cab For cutie video, in the beggining there was coffee and at the end there are not coffee and coins)
I will think a little more and then i vote

Fixed.

Was at 1-1 so hopefully it didn't sway those people.
