Music video

The music video for "Pieces of a Dream" was directed by David Lippman and Charles Mehling, and was filmed in Los Angeles, California between September 17 and September 18, 2005.The video is notable for being shot entirely in black and white. It is mostly set in dark woods, and has no coherent storyline, featuring a series of mysterious images - perhaps to literally interprete the song's title, "Pieces of a Dream". The video depicts Anastacia's descent into madness, and the hallucinations she has, such as a frozen rose and images of herself burning. It is later revealed that Anastacia is being held in a padded cell, and that the video is actually a part of her dream.
