Background
"'Save Me' isn’t just important to me because it's my debut single, its also my story as to how I developed into the individual I am today," Hadjia said upon the single's release. She told the Daily Mail, "I have been through so many experiences like every girl, and I wanted to take a stand and speak up on behalf of all females who have felt hurt from relationships." Hadjia revealed that she has drawn on personal heartbreak after her split from South Sydney Rabbitohs star Sam Burgess in December 2013.
Music video
Hadjia began teasing the release of the music video. The official music video was released on her YouTube account on 19 April 2014.
Opening with a close up sequence of the Hadjia wearing headphones, the video goes on to show Hadjia playfully hugging and pulling funny faces. Audiences are introduced to Hadjia's onscreen love interest. As the video progresses, audiences witness the increasingly apparent conflict between the pair, as they stop speaking during dates. As the clip fast forwards to Hadjia's life a few months later, the artist rocks a white mesh fitted frock complemented with bold diva curls and effortlessly smiles at her ex-love interest. As he approaches her, clearly blown away by her stunning new look, Hadjia enjoys sweet revenge, by making a "rude finger" gesture to her ex-lover and then strutting off with her girls.
