[edit] Music video

The music video has Bedingfield in a number of locations in London looking for a woman, most notably West India Quay (bridge connecting West India to Canary Wharf) and Canary Wharf Docklands area. He comes inches close whilst traveling on the Docklands Light Railway, and then, at the end eventually meets up with her, again at Canary Wharf! A Canadian director, Little X, directed the video, casting a red haired American dancer named Gina[17]. A second version of the video, also directed by Little X, was created for North America. In the beginning of the North American music video, an acoustic version of the song, "Gotta Get Thru This" is featured and then the D 'n' D radio edit starts playing after.
