The Benny Hill theme tune was a pretty unfortunate choice of background music, not sure if that's the impression they wanted to make (maybe it was, not sure).
The tech community tends to be a bit dour and pompous. We tend to overblow every tiny announcement into some world-changing event. Look at Apple's recent announcement video for their $300 book for a particularly gratuitous example.
It's healthy for Tesla to retain a sense of self-deprecating humour. Self-driving cars are massively important, but they're also a bit silly and strange. There's no harm in acknowledging the absurdity of a car that drives itself. There's no harm in bursting your own bubble.
When the last video came out, there were quite a few people saying "wait, that video's sped up, right? It doesn't seem to be taking turns at a safe speed."
I expect Tesla got feedback indicating that some people didn't notice that the last video was sped up, so they decided to make this video a lot more obvious by speeding it up even more and adding the music. I agree, it's not really a good choice, but I can see how they might have come to that decision.
