At sunset, he navigates the song's titular district, past busy restaurants and supermarkets, as the music video's director, Charlie Lightening zooms around with his camera.
The music video was directed by Charlie Lightening and produced by Daniel Lightening. The music video currently has over 5 million views on YouTube.
