The video was shot just one week before the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Fergie spoke of the clip and the natural disaster in Japan, saying, “It was the easiest video I ever shot because it was us living our lives. I love that it’s showing a true perspective of how it can sometimes be lonely on the road away from our loved ones. It also demonstrates the love and connection we have with Japan. Our heart goes out to all of the Japanese people who have been affected by this natural disaster.” Taboo was also quoted saying “It was an amazing moment in time because Japan has always been my favorite place on the planet. It was great to do our video there. God bless the Japanese. Our love goes out to them.”
