Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice 2001
The song features a lead vocal by American funk musician Bootsy Collins. On the album version, Collins's normal vocals are heard through the right audio channel; the same vocals, distorted to a much deeper pitch, are heard through the left. The song features a prominent sample of Sly & the Family Stone's 1968 song "Into My Own Thing", as well as samples from "All Strung Out Over You" by The Chambers Brothers and "Word Play" by The X-Ecutioners. The lines "Walk without rhythm/and it won't attract the worm" quote the science fiction novel Dune, while the line "tone of my voice" may be the titular weapon, as used by some of the book's characters. The line "halfway between the gutter and the stars" refers to a line in Oscar Wilde's play Lady Windermere's Fan: "We are all of us in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars", and was also used as the album title.
The music video features actor Christopher Walken Dancen dancing around a deserted hotel lobby. It won the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Music Video, six awards at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards, and Christopher Walken was awarded one of MTV's Moonmen for Best Choreography.
I think it's safe to say that the video is one of the truly greatest music videos ever made, and needs to be watched by everybody. Your whole life will be vastly improved by having this video in your life. Check it out now, funk soul brothers.

Walk without rhythm It won't attract the worm Walk without rhythm And it won't attract the worm Walk without rhythm And it won't attract the worm If you walk without rhythm Ah, you never learn, yeah
In honor of Dune Part II releasing today, I give you the best moment of hilarity in hindsight in the history of the world.

Defining moment in that set for Nick and I was that he played Camisra, Let Me Show You. And that was the track we used in Spaced. We and Nick, "We love this" blah, blah, blah, and we started jumping up and down and dancing, and whoever was with us turned and said, "He's playing this for you". I mean, Nick and I couldn't have been more wreathed in giant smiles. It was this perfect night. And everything was perfect, the vibe and the music. And then, the superstar DJ on the stage was playing a track just for me and Nick as we were there. It just doesn't get much better than that.

You didn't like either song very much in the polls but the videos made a much bigger impact. "Weapon of Choice" and "Coffee & TV" are two of the greatest music videos ever made but which one was the best? Voting lasts for 24 hours and is just a silly little filler poll for fun. <3
Fight!

I enjoyed Dune 2 more than the first installment but boy was that recurring Fatboy Slim reference distracting.

Listen to both songs before voting, and define "better" any way you wish!
