But to be fair, Al doesn't always have titles that sound like the originals.

True, but as I also mentioned, Bermuda said the parody targets would immediately be obvious to us based on the parody titles.

Could that photo of Al with the BB cast be for a video shoot? But would Al make a song about meth?
I think that photo was from when the show was still on the air, well before Al wrote Foil. So, no.

There's also the consideration that why would a Breaking Bad parody be titled "Foil"?

Right. Even if he would go that route, he would call the song something else. Just like "Rotten Here" would have been a stupid title for "Trash Day."

The
live version of "Royals" is a little bit different from the studio version. It'd be cool if the live version of "Foil" tried to emulate this version.
And I demand to see images of Weeping Angels made out of tinfoil on the screen behind the band!

I am also hoping that during live performances, the band does the harmonies rather than relying on backing tracks. I know they are capable of it (See WDTAHTM)

Guys, it's clearly going to be about LARPing (Live Action Role Playing). It will most definitely be a parody of Lorde's "Royals" and the lyrics for that song leave the perfect layout for that subject matter…
"You can call me queen Bee
And baby I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule.
Let me live that fantasy."
"But every song's like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room,
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs/swinging battle-axes in our dreams."
I could be wrong, but you all know I'm oh so right.

Is "foil" a term used in LARPing?
