Video

“The video is supposed to show a bit how tough the road is in show business and that we are fighting our way out of this little embryo to the people, so to speak, and that it is not that easy to be up there all of a sudden. You actually start very far below and are thrown back again and again. We have experienced that firsthand in recent years. "

- Mandy Capristo, 2010

“The video shoot is a bit combative because we want to show the outside world that we are also fighters. Even if we are women. That we can really do and achieve a lot, no matter what you want. "

- Bahar Kizil, 2010

The music video was shot in Berlin at the beginning of May 2010 under the direction of Thomas Job. The choreography is by Marvin Smith. The video for the single was first released on May 12, 2010 on VIVA Live! after showing it on the band's MySpace page the day before.

The video is divided into three main scenes, each with different costumes. The first scene shows the band members Senna, Mandy and Bahar dancing in small, white tubes. They also wear black catsuits , high heels and shoulder pads with mirrors . In another video three dancers and the friend of the band dive drag queens Olivia O'Hara, Catherrine Leclery and Nani on Labelle. In the following scene, the girl group is dressed in white costumes with large, white shoulder pads on a red ramp and dance together with the dancers and white fluorescent tubes , which they use like lightsabers . The director Thomas Job explains the scene as follows: "After hatching, you have to go out into the fight against the world to get where you want to go." In the last part, the girls dance behind a curtain. In this scene the members wear black leather clothes with silver rivets.
