[edit] Music videos
When the song was first released in Europe, a video was issued with it, featuring 'N Sync in a space station. The video features many high-tech effects, while the plot is the boys trying to contact the girl of the song. It includes the same basic dance routine, and a surprise for US viewers—a clean-shaven Fatone.
This version was directed by Alan Calzatti.
When released in the US, a new video came out. This one was shot partially in black and white and focused more on introducing the personalities of the members, showing them playing pool and driving together. A small flashback to the plot is made when Chasez sings his verse, and a highlight for fans in this version is the sight of Kirkpatrick dragging Chasez across the room during the pool game.
This version was directed by Jesse Vaughn and Doug Biro, and received a Billboard Music Award in 1998. [1]
