I got chills... this was better than I remembered
@MillionaireDubMind
I remember this now, I knew this was going to be one of those practically forgotten but gem-like singles when it first came out. I still remember how much I practically fell in love with everything about it. The underlying tone, the beat, the simplicity yet awesome feel of it all... so cool. Still in awe actually

Same, bro! 2023

@@kasia1785 YEA so good still
@kjc1000
It blows the mind to think about how this was filmed..
@madhatter0911
@@DanielJohnsonWeddings Two individual shots (probably not at the same time) and some editing up until 1:41. At that point you can see that the two sides fit together perfectly, and they become one frame by removing the one without Cheryl and using the whole frame instead of just half of it. At 2:29 they recorded their first shots individually, but around 3:19 when the frames match, it's edited to show the shot which they recorded together (sitting on the same ottoman). Maybe some green screen was involved. And the rest is just two shots put side by side in a way that they complete/complement each other. But that's just my opinion though, I might be totally off.

Many years after its release, I still find this song addictive. And you don't see a music video like this very often: it's strangely haunting to me.
@reecemccallum9382
This song and music video is incredibly unique! Cheryl's outfit when surrounded by the dancers is so amazing!!
@jes2iica
