Music video

The animated music video based on the fable of Cupid and Psyche, and directed by Christopher Heary, shows Cupid (seen in the CD cover) arriving next to a limousine to a party at "Club Perfecto". The club is full of silhouettes of woman dancing and doorways with half opened doors with hints of seedy goings on. Eventually one beautiful woman "Psyche" (non silhouette) follows Cupid and eventually starts a fight on top of the limousine as it moves through an infinite club. Cupid fires a machine gun that shoots golden coins. The woman fires her pistol, which shoots lipstick, that turns into lips, which grow hair and fangs. At the very end Cupid gets bitten by the fangs and the limousine they battle on explodes and both, Cupid and Psyche, lay in front of Graffiti covered wall that reads "What we desire Destroys US!".
