Music video
The first music video for 'Love Like Woe' was released on March 31, 2010. It has received over 20 million hits on YouTube. It takes place in the middle of the woods where Jordan and a group of people are having a party in a shack. Outside, zombies try to enter to the party with little success.
A second version was made featuring Jordan getting ready to impress a girl when he drives up to her mother's house. He gathers a red heart-shaped box of candy, a large bouquet, and several animals, only to find out that his interest wasn't at her mother's house that day. The video also cuts in between him singing the song and his romantic interest getting ready for the day. This is the one used in music channels.
