The video is another great achievement in originality.

Who drew the storyboards?

So funny. So good. And the song is an ass-kicking delight.

So great.

The reason they don't do top music video lists is probably because Tom would just take all the spots.

Loved it! The concept, the storyboards, Patton at the beginning and the band were all fantastic.  Plus, the song is pretty great.  Congrats.

Should not be long until Tom gets this sort of treatment:

The SPIN blurb credits Zack Soto:

Top notch, absolutely great in every way.  Here are three ways in which this video has changed my life after one viewing:

1) I will buy the Ettes disc;

2) If Tom credits ABBA's videos among his inspiration, I hereby renounce any and all anti-ABBA sentiments;

3) Having had it brought to my attention, I will now steal some ideas from Zack Soto's work.

Symmetrical features, youthful energy, expert lighting, flattering green backdrop.
