[edit] Music Video

There are two music videos for "What Have You Done".

In the first video, Sharon den Adel is a spy. Keith Caputo is an FBI agent who has been assigned the task of capturing Adel. They were formerly lovers, but an unconfirmed issue rose between them, causing them to separate. Caputo searches the world for Adel before finally locating her singing with the band in a bar in Thailand; however, he is thrown out by the bouncer and is refused re-entry. Adel stands behind the bouncer, grinning suspiciously. She makes her way through a jungle in the next scene, with Caputo following her. After reaching a cliff with no escape, Adel faces Caputo and whispers "I love you". She turns and jumps off the cliff. Although Caputo is under the impression that Adel did not survive the fall, at the end she is lying on rocks, smiling.

In the alternative video, Adel seems to be leaving an abusive partner. Her partner is left behind in a hotel room, and trashes it, smashing mirrors and vases. This video has a more sinister and dark atmosphere present.
