Music videos

Seven Days of Lonely

The music video was produced by RockHard Pictures and directed by Ray Kay. The music video consists of many intercuts of Carmen and her band playing inside a dimly lit room. The story starts with Carmen's character laying down and singing with a streak of light on her face. Then she is standing up and finds a note. Then after the first chorus, she is walking down the stairs and finds another note. Then she is singing in front of a mirror in a bathroom and find another note on the sink. After finding a couple of more notes, she starts crying. After that she runs toward the light that shines outside of the front door. When she is about to cross the door, she finds the last note and runs outside. She gets happy and smiles when she gets to a forest full of green plants. Then she starts running, and she stops and starts jumping. She then lies on the floor and finishes up the song. Each note had a day written on it. The first note was Monday and the last Sunday. Each note read:
