Music Video

A music video for 'Love Like Woe' was released on March 31, 2010. It has received over 18 million hits on YouTube. It takes place in the middle of the woods where Jordan and a group of people are having a party in a shack. Outside, zombies try to enter the party with little success.

A second video was made entitled Love Like Woe (International Version). It features Jordan getting ready to impress a girl when he drives up to her mother's house.
