Music video

The video starts out with Brown driving her car down a road singing the intro and scenes of a house with a couple kissing. The first chorus starts as Brown gets out of her car. As the song progresses, she walks through the house singing the song with scenes of three couples kissing and then an unseen blinding light appears and the woman in each couple knock something over (e.i. a glass of wine, a bowl of doughnuts, a beer bottle). The video ends with Brown and her boyfriend kissing on a bed and a bright light flashing. The video was shot and directed by Martin Weisz in November 2000. According to Brown, the video was originally scheduled to be shot in the Mojave Desert, which was where the album photoshoots were taken, but the idea was scrapped due to a heavy amount of rain.
