[edit] The Music Video

The Video is considered Very camp and has similar references to other music videos and styles of the 1980s including Bananaramas Venus, a touch of Michael Jackson towards the end, and even a reference to the Broadway Melody ballet from Singin' in the Rain with Gene Kelly and Cyd Charisse. Parts of the video were shot in black and white as was the style in the late 1980s to make it seem more expensive.
