The original, in case it's not spotted below:

Scotch whiskey isn't bad, but I prefer Irish whiskey instead. It's always triple-distilled for extra smoothness, and it doesn't have that smoky taste that scotch has. Now some people really like a smoky taste in their whiskey, and that usually makes them scotch and/or bourbon drinkers. But I prefer the original whiskey flavor that came from the Emerald Isle.

The Scots are fond of saying that the Irish may have invented whiskey, but the Scots perfected it. No offense Scotland, but you are wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, WRONG!

EDIT: But I know Scotch connoisseur Ron Burgundy would beg to differ. In fact he might fight me. That's no lie.

There's a good payoff at the end: watch what happens a few seconds after 1:15 - that might have clinched it for this guy.

I was tempted to make a blog post about this (and if this video does poorly - I'd say 50-50 odds, I just might send it there for that purpose), but I thought it was interesting to note that Toronto radio station 102.1 The Edge (CFNY) has yet another contest on their morning show (typical obnoxious morning show thing) - as long as listeners/contestants put the Edge 102.1 the logo somewhere in the vid (this one's just at the end), anything qualifies. Whatever the hosts enjoy most wins the $1000 weekly prize. There's a final grand prize of $5000. Technically anyone on Videosift can participate too.

Check out their contest site for details.

Returning to the topic of this video (the week two winner), they chose it for various reasons, not limited to the fact that the juxtaposition of "Afternoon Delight" with a 'vicious' beating was amusing, and that the guy managed to keep that cigarette in his mouth throughout the entire 'fight'. And he was doing it on a snowy deck too.

What I also found interesting was that overt "viral vids" - like this music vid - didn't win. I'd argue that inserting the station promo and logo repeatedly into the vid definitely hurt it. Sort of refreshing to see the "make free ads for us" aspect minimized, in favour of something more, I dunno, original? Or at least minimally commercial

Another phenomenon, I found while going through a few of the vids is that there are people with accomplished vids (say, a funny re-cut of a movie), who spliced in a 2 second clip of the station logo and then entered the contest. Worth a shot at free cash I suppose - would it be considered selling out though?

I hated Gary and his music in the 70s (I was a punk snob), but I've grown fond of this over the past few years.

(Rest assured, NOTHING will ever make me like Afternoon Delight. NOTHING. I have standards.)
