Music Video and Promotion
The music video is set on a beach and features clips from The Beach movie. The video was filmed on Holkham beach in Norfolk, England. It featured the girls walking by the beach at night, with various camera effects. Scenes were also filmed in a jungle-esque house with bamboo and trees. On 8 May 2000, the video won the Loaded Award as best single of the year.
The group performed the song at the 2000 MTV Europe Music Awards, and at the World Sports Awards in 2000. It was also performed in Top of the Pops. In 2002, Osymyso sampled the song on his album Intro-Inspection (2002). The band then performed a live version of the song at the BBC Live with Jools Holland Shows. The song was played with just a piano and a drum set.

Famous quotes containing the words music, video and/or promotion:
“If music in general is an imitation of history, opera in particular is an imitation of human willfulness; it is rooted in the fact that we not only have feelings but insist upon having them at whatever cost to ourselves.... The quality common to all the great operatic roles, e.g., Don Giovanni, Norma, Lucia, Tristan, Isolde, Brünnhilde, is that each of them is a passionate and willful state of being. In real life they would all be bores, even Don Giovanni.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
“We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
“Parents can fail to cheer your successes as wildly as you expected, pointing out that you are sharing your Nobel Prize with a couple of other people, or that your Oscar was for supporting actress, not really for a starring role. More subtly, they can cheer your successes too wildly, forcing you into the awkward realization that your achievement of merely graduating or getting the promotion did not warrant the fireworks and brass band.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
