Music video

Two music videos exist for this song. The video directed by Kalle Haglund stars the Hives as giant statues in Stockholm's Liljevalchs konsthall who eventually destroy the museum on the song's final "Boom". In the video, the Hives fashion suits with white dress shoes. The second version is of a staged live performance of the song, part of which was displayed in the Nike / Finish Line commercial.
