[edit] Finnish (Bandit) version - 2003
The Rasmus are yet again performing on a stage, this one resembling a helipad. This time Lauri wears no make-up. The band are out trying to rob a bank when the police arrives unexpectedly. Lauri is almost caught, but manages to grab onto the safe-door, which is being dragged behind the tow-car that the group uses for the robbery, and goes skidding down the road. He falls off and runs into the woods where police dogs find him. Aki then ushers him into the car where Lauri makes his lucky escape and the car drives off. The video was included in the soundtrack of Finnish movie Pahat Pojat and footage from the film was used in the video.

[edit] European (Crow) version - 2003
The Rasmus are placed on a stage in the middle of nowhere and they perform the song. Around them, there are crows flying around and they break through the small rectangular windows. Towards the end, one crow breaks a light on the ceiling with its wings and the band perform in a shower of electricity-particles. In the end, the band transform into feathers.

[edit] US/UK (Mirror) version - 2004
The Rasmus are performing in what looks to be underneath an old building, with lots of fans moshing around them. During the verses, we see a maid who is constantly busy serving the masters of the house. She sees Lauri in mirrors and walls, which causes her to make mistakes and drop trays. Eventually, Lauri tugs her through a mirror to see the band perform.
