[edit] Music Video
The Black Coffee video featured 3D computer generated movement based on video still which was state of the art at the time, emphasizing the lyric: "Freeze The Moment".
This video follows a couple that had been constantly fighting, despite the song's lyrics suggesting they are doing well and that the woman will not break up with him, and it forms a part of good memory. It is main based in an apartment flat, and the roof on that building.
