Music video

The video was directed by Dan Kleinman in 1984 and revolves a magician woman who plays tricks on Jack Hues and Nick Feldman throughout the video. Feldman's head is apparently turned into the rose from his jacket. Hues, who has had enough of the woman's tricks violently shakes her while singing the line "what you're doing to me".
