Music video

The video itself was filmed in a paternoster lift in Haus des Rundfunks, Berlin.[1] The constant movement of the lift and one’s inability to stop it represent the constant flow of life. The hat Melua wears in the video was made by a milliner called Piers Atkinson.[2]

In an interview with the Sun Melua explained with regards to the video: "It was about finding peace within yourself no matter how much life is flowing in the right or wrong direction."[3]
