[edit] Music Video

The music video, directed by Mark Seliger and Fred Woodward, was shot in Febraury, 1998, in Bahamas, where his mother, Roxie Roker was from. It visually expanded the the reggae influence of the song. Kravitz was shot singing and slightly dancing among the people, also walking and biking along the streets. Another remarkable scene from the video is the one when Kravitz is singing sunk up to his hips in the water. It should be also noticed that Kravitz does not have his dreadlocks anymore since this video.
