After being shot on slide film, the track's new video lay incomplete for two decades. Befitting the track, the video plays out in a mix of light, shadow, and undefinable magic, casting stills from the era in colorful close-ups. As the band explains, "When we released Light & Magic it was expected that the title track would be a later single, and would therefore need a video clip of its own. But we were on the road and didn't know how it would be done. We had all this beautiful slide film shot and envisaged animating it in some way, like a 1970s science fiction title sequence - Sapphire and Steel or something like that. We disappeared on the road, plans changed, and ideas were forgotten. Twenty years later here it is."
