The Film clip for his single featured Melissa in a number of guises. She is seen in hot pink lingerie, and also in a leather Jacket, corvorting with a large block of ice and at the conclusion of the clip performs a dance routeen with a group of male dancers in an industrial warehous
In 2005, Tkautz, relaunched her music career with the album Lost And Found and included two new versions of Sexy (Is The Word). These were contemporary remixes where new vocals were recorded, and whilst not released as a single, the song received much attention in nightclubs around Australia. There was a film clip released with this track to clubs which was basically a re-edited version of the original, made so that it would match the faster paced 2005 version.
