Video

The music video for the song featured the band playing at a wharf in New Orleans (the Louisa Street Wharf), sometimes playing their real instruments but also pretending to play non-existent instruments. The video also features over 50 camera moves, and full choreography by Columbia Records Art & Creative Services. It was reported that on the first day of shooting, there was a cool breeze coming off of the Mississippi River, which the wharf was located next to. This made filming all the more difficult on the band and Perry, who was seen retreating numerous times to his camper on-site to keep warm.
