Yep HD - I know what you mean. Sadly,those kind of little brain blips happen to me a lot more often than I'd like.
I'm not going to be around tonight when the voting ends, so I have to vote earlier than I'd like. Since this round is still up for grabs, I can't vote strategically. So I'm gonna try to help seal the deal ...
I cast my vote for For My Wedding.

Voting for Round Six begins now.
Darn on For My Wedding. I thought it was a cute video. Darn. I broke my streak.
For I'm voting Not Enough Love In the World.
I don't know why I don't like it. Don is soo handsome in this video, but I don't like the video.
So, I'm thinking of voting for NELITW, but it has a great moment where Don pulls a lady (his then-girlfriend) in for a kiss - and I find it so romantic. I also like the inventive camerawork - the way that it slowly pans ceilings and walls to reveal the stage, Don, the stage seats... very cool. The theater setting is interesting, as is "Don the Actor." I always like story videos where the singer plays something other than a version of himself. The downside is I don't really get what the purpose of fighting couple and the kids is. At first I thought it was flashback but if the woman is Maren (it's kind of hard to tell because she's wearing a scarf) then that can't be right. Maybe the fight is because the guy found out she was cheating with Don! Still, like I said, that camerawork is fantastic.
I'm also thinking of voting for Taking You Home, but it has all those absolutely adorable moments with Don and his real-life family sprinkled in amongst the extras. It was filmed in East Texas, too, which adds a really homey element to it. So sweet! Still, the parts where he's singing in a room into a microphone are a little dull.
ASWTDID is kinda seedy but it fits the song very well. The "disco in the midst of a Colombian drug den" is a setup that's just as tongue-in-cheek as the song itself. The set has a lot of great nuances too, like the jeep stuck in the ceiling. The problem comes with you have jarringly disturbing moments inserted into the campiness, like the creepy guy grabbing the girl, and her spitting into his face. I was afraid he was going to hit her (yes, I know it's not real, but still). Impoverished children and Kootch lurching around like he's just gotten electric shock treatments... the girl alone and sad at the end... I think they should have decided on a tone and stuck with it.
Still not sure. Thoughts?
TYH is such a cute video. Its nice to see his wife and children in the video. Too bad it was the first and only time we see them ever in public or in a video. Didn't I read somewhere that the song was about him taking home his first child home from the hospital. I think it was the Storytellers special. Plus. The TYH video goes along with the song. He got it right this time. This video didn't make me scratch me head.
ASWTDID: A video where it actually makes sense with the song. Plus Don is not that bad looking either in the video.
NELITW: Its just something about the video I don't get. I might go watch it again.
