Video
The music video included all three finalist duos and many other young people and was shot over several nights in Vienna. The videos shows all of them running through the city of Vienna at night, with flashlights. Most of the people give up the race or fail, so at the end there is only Vanessa and Leo left, showing that they are the winning duo.[1] The other two versions of the video show the other duos, Elif Demirezer & Niklas Dennin and Dagmara Woszczek & Daniel Dausner, winning the race. The clothes worn in the video represent not only the genre of their music but also the rebellion of the video. The video was released along with the CD and digital download on December 11, 2009.
