Music video

[edit]

The music video was first published through Alex Clare's YouTube channel on 10 November 2010. It is around three minutes in length and it was directed by Blake Claridge.[1]

The video starts with three different people, two men and a girl, who wake up lying on the ground, after having passed out the previous night. Throughout the video, the girl is seen near a swimming pool, one of the men is seen running on a treadmill, and the other is seen playing the drums to the song. The video progresses to show how the three characters' actions led them to the beginning of the video.
