Music video
The official music video was filmed in the Maan Studios (Romania) by Iulian Moga (brother to Marius Moga) and was posted on YouTube on 27. September, where it already gained over 7.000.000 clicks. The video's first scene shows Alexandra Stan in sepia, being pictured by a male photographer, in a Cafė. After she's seducing him, she is leaving the bar. The thema is changing to colour, Stan's at a swimming-pool party, where she is dancing among other female and male dancers, wearing a dress made of mini-balloons. After she is seen shortly in a dark room with an old-fashioned TV, Alexandra is in a church, among male and female humans, that are wearing long and dark clothing, covering their complete body. Alexandra is also wearing the dark clothes, so only her red lips are seen. She might be the people's "queen". The people are then taking off clothes, wearing only lingerie. The male and female persons are then building love-couples, so they are hugging and kissing. At the end of the video, Alexandra is dating the photographer from the video's first scene. She's starting a fire, when she's letting candles fall over. Stan and the man are, in the video's last scene, dancing around it.
