The concept of this video is the band competing in a battle of the bands with Dappy being one of the judges. The main mise-en-scene is representing a small Caribbean party, which is shown through the props for example the Bajan flag on the wall that we see. The beginning of the video starts with a band in the club just finishing and showing the judges face expressions showing that they did not enjoy this performance, this is when Cover Drive enter. The crowd start to liven up as well as the judges automatically showing that they like this band, making them look better than the previous band who had just performed before them. The lighting is quite dim, however when they are performing the chorus, more lights on stage flash - green and orange, these colours portray the Caribbean feel to the video and mise-en-scene. Amanda is only wearing one costume in this video and wearing a fashionable top and regular jeans with boots. This music video is pretty much about enjoying the music. The editing is reflected by the musical beats as the tempo is fast paced making the video flow easily. There are a lot of long/wide shots to highlight the mise-en-scene and to see the band performing as well as close ups, especially of Amanda to show her costume.
