Music video

shot with director Nigel Dick in March 2009. In the video directed by Nigel Dick, a businessman is captured giving away money to those whom he meets on the streets. Two women are also shown handing out jackets with a tag that reads "Do Whatever It Takes" on its back to people. The video certainly emphasizes the ongoing theme of live each day as if it was your last. Also included in the video is a man on the street appearing stressed by work, arguing on the phone with presumably his boss. After the message is shared, he then places his suitcase in the bin and takes off his work jacket, ready to live each day like it were his last. In addition, the song emphasizes that living each day as if it was your last, means live how you like to live, and not how others tell you to live.
