We filmed it like an old western movie. (...) I still went there to film some bits with her,but because weirdly Nashville don't have any western sets,they just have fields,so I was like 'I can't do the whole western video in a field dressed like a cowgirl',it just didn't make sense to me,so we found this set in Kent which is a whole town."
