Cuomo felt very strongly about keeping his videos gimmick-free during the promotion for ''Pinkerton''. His reaction to the huge success of the [[Buddy Holly#Music video|Buddy Holly music video]] was one of fear that people loved the geeky gimmicks of the video, and weren't appreciating his songwriting. He wanted "El Scorcho" to be very straight-forward. During the editing of the video for El Scorcho, Cuomo and the director, [[Mark Romanek]], got into a disagreement about the way the video was to be made, which led to Romanek removing his name from the directing credit. Two versions came out of this dispute, a "Director's Cut" edition (Romanek's version) and a second, which is said to have been edited under Cuomo's supervision. The "Director's Cut" version is shown below. | Cuomo felt very strongly about keeping his videos gimmick-free during the promotion for ''Pinkerton''.
