Music video



This starts with Sarah Brightman running and dancing around the dungeon while the camcorders and lights focus on her dropping on the floor. She next appears as an angel sitting on the side of the bed the friars carry with a background of stars and clouds and puts up a big red and black pennant surrounded by about four torches. She watches Chris Thompson on the big screen and they both are revealed being handcuffed together. She hangs on to a tree blown in the wind that blows away the leaves and the long grass, appears in a red Mandarin dress that sparkles standing underneath the entrance and pulls up the ropes that connect the red rubber with water wearing a latex suit of the same color. She also appears as a construction girl in front of the metal fence and she, except her arms, is still tied up to the chair in ribbons under the light having her face unwrapped while he broadcasts on the radio station inquiring in German. She then appears as a countess holding the English dogs on the leashes with a quick scene where she has been locked up in jail even when she is portrayed an innocent lady. This ends with all scenes cutting rapidly with footages from the 1940s and 1950s, portraying scenes of Stalin's USSR and the Cold War terror.
