The CD-ROM track consists of the video of the single, a making-of film and photos.

Music video

The music video was directed by Peter Lindbergh and cinematographed by Darius Khondji. Shot on the Cornish coast, the video consists only of the camera holding on Campino's face, as he sings. At the end of the video Campino morphs into French model (and Lindbergh muse) Marie-Sophie Wilson.
