The Video
The video shows the band working at a service/petrol station. They begin by being rather bored, as the probable lack of customers. 'That Girl' arrives and starts flirting with Danny as he fixes her car. As she leaves, she gives him her phone number. She arrives "three days later" and is seen with another man. Tom, Dougie and Harry cause havoc - Harry overfills the car, Dougie takes parts out of the car that are actually needed for it to work, and Tom destroys his credit card by swiping it repeatedly really fast. At the end of the video, the boys run away seeing as the car crashed after Dougie 'helped' with 'fixing' it. That Girl won Best Video at the 2004 Smash Hits Awards.

Famous quotes containing the word video:
“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)
“These people figured video was the Lord’s preferred means of communicating, the screen itself a kind of perpetually burning bush. “He’s in the de-tails,” Sublett had said once. “You gotta watch for Him close.””
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
