Music video

The music video is choreographed around breakdancing and parkour with a comedic aspect. It features Daniel Ilabaca and various members of 3RUN. The clip starts with two young men playing basketball while two women walk past. One of each of the two notice each other and are obviously infatuated. They walk up to the cage between them and when their hands touch they begin to dance intensely. They continue to dance energetically and spontaneously until they touched someone else, at which time the "energy" would transfer to them and that person would start to dance while the person who touched them stopped.
