Music videos

Regular music video.

Shot in January 2004 in California, the regular music video for "Left Outside Alone" was directed by Bryan Barber. There are actually three music videos for the song. The regular - first - version was for the worldwide market, excluding North America. Image File history File links LeftOutsideAlone. ... Image File history File links LeftOutsideAlone. ...

In the normal version, the video begins showing Anastacia singing the intro to the song on some sort of a bridge. After that, she is walking on a street and you can see a red poster of her on an advertising pillar. Then she gets in a car and drives away. During her drive, she is singing and looking to the car next to her, where she sees 'herself' kissing a man. Throughout the video, cuts of Anastacia in all these scenes are shown too. Later she gets out of the car and notices people dancing to her song on the street. While heading to a club, she opens a curtain, when a mysterious light is shining out.


The alternate version of this video, also known as "the blue-poster version", which is actually a video for the Jason Nevins Global Club Edit of the song, contains some editings, one of them being the fact that this version has a blue poster instead of the red one that is in the regular version also has a different ending.

Anastacia in the American version of the video.

In 2005, a completely new video was released for the American audience. Shot on May 19 and 20, 2005, this version was directed by David Lippman and Charles Mahling, though also being shot in Los Angeles, California. Although this version was recorded specially for the American market, "Left Outside Alone" was never officially released there. In this version, Anastacia is in a kind of castle lying alone in a bed surrounded by candles. She is vested sparely and everything has a romantic atmosphere. You also see her outside in a wood when she lets a dove fly. Image File history File links LeftOutsideAloneUS.JPG‎ Screenshot of the American version of Anastacias Left Outside Alone music video. ...
