Music video
editThe video premiered on terrestrial television in August 1997.[citation needed] The video features the band stranded on a beach, attempting to send messages to a lady, in an attempt to get her to rescue them. The video intertwines clips of the band with clips of the wealthy, yet lonely girl, who has been left at home on her birthday by her parents. The girl, being cared for by household staff, seems to have everything except love. The video was partly recorded in the north of Spain, in Santander. The version of the video included on 'N the Mix is adjusted to the remix of the song, which had Justin Timberlake sing the second verse in place of JC Chasez.
