Music video[edit]

Two versions of the video have been released. The first, the 'Las Vegas' version directed by Derek Pike, shows Blacc walking alone along a highway in Nevada, and then hitching a ride to Las Vegas, where he finds a dollar coin on the casino floor, uses it to play a slot machine, and wins.

The second (used for the international release), the 'New York' version, features the screen being split in half. The right side shows Blacc singing inside an apartment while the left side shows a man walking through the streets of New York. Once Aloe enters the left side after the line 'Maybe it's inside the bottle' and performs at a bar, the song changes to 'So Hard'.
