Music video

The video for "Follow Me" was filmed on 18 July 2000 and includes Natasha Hamilton, Liz McClarnon and Kerry Katona. It opens with the Kittens near a window in a shadowy room. Before the first chorus the girls are seen in a desert with a pink sky. In the first chorus, the three dance on a disco ball dome in the sky in the clouds. The girls also dance on top of a skyscraper in the city at night, while the skyline is full of old buildings. The roof the girls dance on features a large tattoo-like design. During the bridge section, the Kittens dance in front of a blue cover. The girls also clap their hands with snowballs in the desert setting at night. Before the final chorus, the blue cover lifts up behind Natasha, Kerry and Liz.
