Music video

A music video to accompany the release of "Alone" was first released onto YouTube on 27 February 2014. [2] It was directed by Svenno Koemans. [3] The music video was shot in Los Angeles at the crossroads between Broadway and 8th Street. It shows cars arrested in front of the crossroads. The first is driven by Lauren Evans. The second is driven by a man alongside Armin van Buuren. The others driven by people who are breaking their relationships with their partner. Then an old man faints on the pedestrian crossing. But nobody cares of him. Only Evans and van Buuren try to save him. They ask help to the other passengers who ignore the situation. At the end, the man regains consciousness.
