Information

The first music video of the era to not be filmed in a studio environment, and, as such, likely doesn't follow the narrative of the other three music videos. It includes a compliation of the band performing live during the Will of the People Summer Festivals Tour 2022. It is the first music video to be based and feature live footage in 10 years, since Follow Me and Resistance.

It's possible that the reason why the video comprised of purely live footage was that Muse didn't originally plan to release the song as a single so thus didn't film a traditional music video like the previous three singles. However, due to the song's popularity live and fan efforts for the studio version to be released, the band decided to release it as a single and create a music video comprised purely of live footage so it could coincide with the single's release.

The music video was released on July 21st, 2022, together with the song itself, and is directed and edited by Ben Lowe with mini cameras operated by Andy Henderson and Mark Hughes, and additional footage from Dan Lancaster, Rachel Wilkinson and "Isle of Wight Festival Multicam CC-Lab".
