One problem with this whole discussion is that the idea of a concept is generally pretty stretchable and subjective, whereas execution is often narrowly defined in technical terms.

In other words, I for one like videos that defy both.
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

so long as you know what your audience wants, execution. concept is overrated. it can make for a great video though.

Execution

Good execution can save a poor idea as it makes a video that is fun to watch even if the idea is basic. Good concept without good execution however often falls flat and results in viewers thinking "Well I see what he was going for but it doesn't come out properly." At which point you are looking at unrealized potential.
