Music video

A music video was made in which Menzel plays a piano alone in a room. As she leaves, her dress is seen tied to the piano. She proceeds to walk through streets slowly unwrapping the dress she is wearing. The video ends with Menzel standing on top of a building taking the rest of the dress off and revealing a red top and jeans underneath.
