Music video

The video features the same three women as in the Pretty Green Eyes video, and they are at Blackpool beach. Ultrabeat also star in it, like in the Pretty Green Eyes video.

The three girls walk about the promenade and walk past Ultrabeat, then they start dancing. They move on to the beach where they start taking pictures of each other. They then go into a nearby cafe where Ultrabeat are already sitting down. They put on make-up and then they start laughing with Ultrabeat.

They go stand on the promenade again and watch the sea with Ultrabeat. The three girls then start riding on a carousel and they play on a claw machine and win a stuffed monkey. They play with the monkey and then place it down on a chair. They then run off and the video ends.
