We first see a black man greeting Lewis in various languages in a party. Then, Lewis is blocked by fans until he sees a girl in a silver dress (portrayed by
Keely Shaye Smith , famous from her current husband, ex-James Bond actor,Pierce Brosnan ). The two fell in love and attempt to escape the party by boat. When their boat capsized, they were drifted into an island. Unknown to them, they went to explore this mysterious place. Lewis' band members also traveled to the island by water transportation, such as jet skis. As Lewis and the girl tried to survive, they suddenly saw a mob of people dancing. In the end, the girl rows the boat while Lewis rests and the band members are playing their instruments on the water.Chart performance
