Music video

edit

The music video for the song simply featured the band playing in a derelict room, and it received little airtime on MTV. An alternate version was made showing actors looking back on photographs and memories, reflecting the song's subject matter, though this was very rarely shown. It was the second and final video to feature Atom Willard playing the drums.

DVD appearances

edit

The music video also appears on the Complete Music Video Collection DVD. It was released in 2005.
