Music video

The video for the fourth single is a compilation of some concert footage filmed at live gigs and some behind the scenes footage at photo shoots in and around Dublin in July 1996, interspersed with short clips of The Corrs on board an aircraft carrier. There wasn't enough time to make a more complicated video.

Most of the scenes in the video can also be found in the documentary "The Right Time". The scenes on the American aircraft carrier called John F. Kennedy, which was then located in Dublin Bay are also featured in the aforementioned documentary.

Director Ciaran Tanham, who also directed "The Right Time" documentary and was one of the directors of the "Lansdowne Road" concert.
