The music video shows Tina in the first scene sitting on a bed in an apartment. Later she wears a long coat, standing in front of a revolving door and walking down a street while it is raining. After she was looking for shelter in a telephone cabin, she changes her clothes and performs on stage in a nightclub.

As a special bonus, Tina produced also a „Hollywood“ version, in which she represents different characters. In this version, she don’t perform in a nightclub, but standing alone on stage of a big concert hall, wearing a beautiful white long dress.

Both videos were originally released on the What You See Is What You Get home video on VHS. In 2022, remastered versions have been included into the Break Every Rule (Deluxe Edition) on DVD.
