Music video

The music video features the band in a 1973/74 Dodge Charger traveling through a rural setting and at one point stopping at a roadside cafe. Various locations in Hartlepool are featured, including the horseshoe tunnel in Steetley, although much of the previously industrial area has been redeveloped into housing since the video was shot. The video contains a mix of colored as well as black and white footage. The video ends with the car fading as it moves on down the open road. This Dodge Charger was destroyed at the Heinegone Banger Race in King's Lynn on 13 June 2015.
