Music video The music video was directed by Charles Infante on 17 November 2002 and was shot in Los Angeles. In the city, Melanie C is in the alleyway, singing. She is also near the bridge. A group of people runs through the bridge, passing Melanie over. The group arrives at the alleyway and they climb to the other side of the wall where Melanie is singing. The group again passes Melanie over. Melanie is then seen near the mountains. The same group of people also arrives there. The group finds Melanie and they watch the sunset as the video ends.
