The second, made for the American market, was with live action and animated scenes. k-os walks down a snowy alleyway in Toronto and looks at a graffiti piece. The scene gives way to an animated k-os at a meeting on another planet being tasked by his superiors to go to Planet Earth on his bike to bring his message. He rides around a city, along streets lined with palm trees and the bike even flies. He eventually leaves to go back to his planet. India.Arie also makes an appearance in the video.
