[edit] Music video

Minogue in a scene from the video.

The accompanying video features Minogue strolling around a city block within the Boulogne suburb of Paris, France. Each time she completes a circuit of the area, a new Minogue emerges from one of the stores (which is in fact the 'old' Minogue, that did the circuit the first time around), and each of the people in the background are also duplicated. By the time the video concludes there are four Minogues and each background extra is also depicted four times. The video ends as a fifth Minogue emerges. The video was directed by Michel Gondry and updated a concept that he had used in Neneh Cherry's "Feel It" music video.

The extra Minogues are not, as some people believe, clones, but past selves. Kylie apparently goes back in time when she completes the circuit, and her past self walks out of the dry cleaner's. The real Minogue can be distinguished by lip synching the words to the song as it plays.

It bears noting that the video is also similar to a past video, "Did It Again", where there were four Minogues.

The video was filmed on September 8, 2002 with 50 extras on hand, including actor Sacha Bourdo. It took over fifteen takes to create the desired effect. Fifteen days were required for the video's special effects.
