[edit] Music video

The promotional video to accompany the single was directed by Jonnie Ross.[2] The video premiered in the United Kingdom on the 16 March 2007 at around 11:50pm on Channel 4. It can now be seen at the band's official website.[3]

The music video features the band playing though an "it's a small world" type ride that goes through the events of the history of the world. The video makes references to the September 11, 2001 attacks and evolution throughout the different time periods. The video ends with all the events coming together with giant robots with multiple rows of teeth destroying buildings and UFOs swarming the city, with the humans fighting back. The conclusion of the video features two simple looking cavemen era humans watching the band as they exit the tunnel of the ride and a large set of doors closes behind them.

The song's length in the video is shorter than both the radio edit and the album version, lasting 4:30.
