Weapon of Choice (Halfway Between the Gutter and the Stars) - далеко не первый трек, записанный Норманом Куком под псевдонимом Fatboy Slim, однако запомнился этот трек очень многим - во многом благодаря великолепному клипу.

За Weapon of Choice Fatboy Slim получил шесть наград на церемонии MTV Video Awards 2001. Видео признано лучшей режиссёрской и операторской работой года, награждено за лучший монтаж и оформление; кроме того, клип получил приз за лучшую хореографию и назван открытием года.

Сам Норман Кук не задействован в клипе. На протяжении всего видео актер Кристофер Уокен (Christopher Walken) танцует в пустом холле, легко, непринуждённо и с достоинством, присущим его внешности и таланту. Как и во многих других клипах на треки Нормана Кука, движения танцора не похожи на привычные танцы, как будто автор хочет приучить нас не стесняться быть раскрепощёнными.
