"I" came first, and "Imitosis" is the expansion on it. Ditto for "Skin" and "Skin Is, My" -- Andrew Bird likes to return to songs and play with them some more a couple of albums later. But although I like "Imitosis" better as a song, I think you chose the perfect version of the song for this video.
(And now that I've figured out you may or may not be familiar with Bird's whole oeuvre, I'm linking you to this to explain what I meant in my other comment about the awesome intensity of "Why".)
