Music video The music video showcases Darren Hayes looking at videos of an actress that he is infatuated with. The video continues with Hayes showing he has allowed his hair to grow, and has dyed it blonde, which is his natural hair colour. Hayes said in a HuffPost piece in 2022 that although US label executives were initially enthusiastic about the song itself, after they were shown a rough cut of the video, they feared Hayes appeared "too gay" for American audiences and wanted to "overhaul" his image "so as not to scare off fans".
