A music video directed by Isaac Rentz was also filmed, in which the band members and some girls and boys play around in several different scenes, diving into a pool fully clothed, playing golf on cars, etc. There are also several close-ups of the band-members singing along to the words of the song throughout the video. There are only three girls because they see the watcher and fans as the fourth one. The video was filmed from the fourth girl's perspective.[4]
