Music Video
The music video is set in a luxury apartment and on the rooftop of the apartment during the night. A young couple argue with each other in their apartment with each Saint appearing beside them at various points throughout - completely invisible to the couple. The video cuts between the couple arguing and the girls singing on the rooftop of the apartment, with the city skyline visible in the background. The video uses a special effect very similar to the Bullet Time effect used in The Matrix . The overally mood of the video created by the setting, lighting and colour reflect the mood and lyrics of the song itself to a very high degree. Unlike previous videos from All Saints, none of the girls appear together during this video because they weren't speaking to each other at the time. It was directed by Johan Renck.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or video:
“The music is in minors.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident. In the place of traditional, sometimes ancient childhood games that were still popular a generation ago, in the place of fantasy and make- believe play . . . today’s children have substituted television viewing and, most recently, video games.”
—Marie Winn (20th century)
