The second video was released by Happy Music on their official YouTube page. The video was a second video and the track was edited as the UK Radio edit. The video featured September sporting a futuristic theme where she's driving a "flying" car, She then is in a white room, singing and dancing to the song. Throughout the rest of the video, she goes to a dark room in which she rescues her boyfriend, as he is trapped in a laser fence. The video ends where she and her boyfriend drive away, and the police force follow them after it fades black. Her birthday is lightly referenced in the video.
