Music video
editThe official music video was uploaded to YouTube on November 2, 2012, and was directed by Big TV.[2] The music video shows Rob Thomas and the rest of the band performing the song at a fair. In the beginning, you see a young woman getting ready and an older woman also putting on make up. They both meet their "date" at a fair. Throughout the video, you see couples from various time periods enjoy the merry-go-round, games, and go-karts. The couples get their pictures taken, and the ending shows that this is the same couple from different periods ranging from 1959 to 2012.[3]
