I wanted to get the dead lesbians in without ruining the tone, that rather overwrought part of the song was the perfect place to do that.

Absolutely perfect. And you come right out of it perfectly, too, and back into the fun parts. (:

I showed it to my partner, and he particularly wanted to mention that he loved the way you set up the vid in the beginning with all the pants roles. It's a great way to get the viewer into the proper frame of mind.
