Default Contest: 1k Handstand Ode to DaEvils. BBV, You Be the Judge

While waiting for tie53 I offered 1k to the best video of somebody doing a handstand while singing an Ode to DaEvils (DaEvils being my FTP screen name) that gets put on YouTube. I got the following submissions:

1) This guy claimed to bribe a homelesss person (although you can't tell if he's homeless. The Ode is supposed to be:

O dear daevils; Mr. Foxwoods Fiend;
Tie53’s roll-- o’ how its cleaned;
It must be so nice to be rolling in green.

You overshoved the pot with pairs of Kings and Tens
Who knows what tie was hoping for then,
And another hand you rolled tie again,
You shoved with two jacks, he called with 8 Ten;
When tie cracked your aces
With runner runner flush
It wasn’t bad play it was just plain bad luck
Despite his bad call of a big bet on turn,
You kept playing—he just wouldn’t learn

At the end of the day,
Tie just got outplayed
So now I read this ode,
Trying to get paid

Homeless person

2) not a real handstand

3) not really a handstand

4) full handstand

5) good song, bad handstand

No poll: just if you like one of these say which one and I'll go with a scale weighting my own preference heavily and going against it if there's consensus that one of these is best.

Homeless person, terrible video... you can't see what he's doing or understand what he's saying.

Video 2, awesome music, but just weird.

Video 3, George Michaels... NO!

Video 4, weakish, but best so far.

Video 5, nah

Imma gonna go with 4.

I thought the contest was a handstand,

The second guy just sang. Who cares.

I think someone could totally clean house in this competition if they took 2 minutes of planning. So far it's been underwhelming.
