Thought I'd drop some trivia. I was honored to work on this video way back, it was SO fun. (3 day shoot) I was Jay's Double, (I do the Back Flip) and yes that is WEE-Man! There is not much CGI in this vid, good old fashion tricks. When you see Jay as one character, I'm the other. Except the girl.The sparks from his shoes are real! Plastic bottoms w/ flints. And he insisted on doing all the stunts himself. Great Guy! Miss ya Mate, get your but back to the States. Peace, EasyRoc (Rock Steady Crew)
It was a 4 day shoot because of the scene where Jay is being dragged by the car had to be shot on a larger real street, the set had a street but it was too short for the car to gain speed
This music video is a cinematic masterpiece. The production and acting here is so astounding that the title of “short film” better describes this work of art. 10/10
One of the finest bass lines (with effect) ever composed in my opinion. "feels just like it should", just makes you feel good. Jamiroquai is an all time favorite for bass lines
Holy freaking crap! I'm middle aged and a huge fan from Australia and this is actually the first time I've seen the music video for this song, I'm just freaking mind blown hahahaha
Same reason why he never made "Sexiest Man Alive" cover of People Magazine. He definitely was the "total package", drop dead sex appeal, handsome but rugged not pretty boy type, sings & dances, British accent, great dresser, Heidi Klum once dated him. He also races sports cars & is a collector like Jay Leno, has a sly sense of humor
I swear i've the first 10 seconds of this in nfsmw, the remix is the actual song that's in the game but for some reason I have a memory of hearing this intro in it

Боже мой, какой же приятный видео ряд и каков креатив и потенциал даже для банального продакт плейсмента и будь сейчас у адидаса такой рекламный партнёр - магазины их были бы пусты! Но ведь тогда это был сплошной креатив!!!

the scene where he jumps from car to car looks idiotic, other then that one thing I agree with you on everything else
It's from Need For Speed Most Wanted 1 on Xbox
Man how I miss those days when Need for speed most wanted was more of a great trend. Time was a different era back then.🥲

One of the finest bass lines (with effect) ever composed in my opinion. "feels just like it should", just makes you feel good. Jamiroquai is an all time favorite for bass lines
And done vocally, too.
Agreed. The bass is unreal.

This song and video are criminally underrated.
Incorrect
Mate it sold MILLIONS 😆😆
totally agree
No comment
This song is the bomb amazing track
That´s exactly how I imagine a normal day in Jay Kay´s life... with crazy random stuff happening and he just dancing through it
This song feels just like it should....................fantastic.
yaa-aa-ooow
This video is a very creative way to share his experience with drug addiction, not many musicians can make being an addict sound like a "good" thing.

Favourite video of Jamiroquai!, I remember seeing this on MTV.
+Steph F He always had unique and amazing video clip. Fell in love with him from Virtual insanity
+Hendra Suryadi They always had unique and amazing clips you mean ;) Virtual Insanity was really awesome though :D
And they're still going strong in 2020 from what I've heard. Cool 😎
Yeah... Like Virtual Insanity that won an award or, two I think ?..
Still the coolest pop star out there, cars, girls, can dance like a demon, understated, down to earth and such unique music.
just marking my presence here on this incredible music.
Used to hear this on FIFA 06 in my teens, what a tune!
10 years and UA-cam now recommends this video to me. thank you
Totally underrated song... would like to hear it in the recent lives...
This song is so bad ass. A mix of rock, funk, and sex. This band was just insanely awesome and many people still don't know their music to this day.
"A mix of rock,funk, and" a what,and when i found this song from Most Wanted it just became my favorite song

Jamiquai's virtual underworld that doesn't let us close our curiosity door.
this song and Seven Days in Sunny June never got the credit they deserved
Totally agree with you buddy... 😌
The entire dynamite album never got the credit it deserves, its full of amazing songs
The song is from Need For Speed Most Wanted 1 on Xbox
Music awesome..verse vox is cliche ..hook is a 5...vid is outta sight
This is an album where every track is a hit. I just love Starchild & Time Won't Wait :)
I was in Europe in 05' when this song came out and tv played the crap out of it... Still rocks today! Jammer-quai for life!
Funk is timeless
In an alternate world, there is a blue Boogeyman fighting Batman, and somebody named Jim Carrey makes cool music. Both worlds worth living.
How Jay managed to capture every friiday night from my 30's in one music video, i will never know..
Your memory bank did that all in it's own bud
@@user-ti3sg9un9m so, my memory bank made this Epic Video ?
Most epic adidas shoes commercial ever
Jay Kay's "Yeah-oww" is one of the best things I've seen this week.
STILL the best illustration of a drug trip that I've ever seen; the title says it all.
Fun fact: This song was used in the PlayStation Move commercial for the PlayStation 3 for the PlayStation.
Soundtrack for FIFA 06 too.
Need For Speed Most Wanted 1 on Xbox & Microsoft E3
Why has Jay never gone in to acting!!?? He’s clearly got the skills for it
Good point. I could definitely see that. 🎬
He probably doesn’t want to, in a movie seeing jay kay as one of the music producers will make a bigger impact than jay being an actor
He almost got into a movie in the late 2000s but I think the movie got canceled.
Same reason why he never made "Sexiest Man Alive" cover of People Magazine. He definitely was the "total package", drop dead sex appeal, handsome but rugged not pretty boy type, sings & dances, British accent, great dresser, Heidi Klum once dated him.

Can't help but to agree with all of u!

AMarlok1 & a badass game called Need For Speed Most Wanted 1
Never played that game but everytime I listen to this song I feel the same happiness I used to feel when I heard FJLIS for the first time xD
AMarlok1 I see
but dis song is in the game
AMarlok1 U should hear the Timo Maas Remix its way better than the Original version
But yeh I only know its from Need For Speed Most Wanted 1
I come back to this song once in a while to see if something would change but nah, it feels just like it should
Just heard this song today after so many years not heard it since I was a teenager I forgot about it I'm so glad I heard it again

Love it!!!! It's every thing music today is not.
Bigtrek34 & even in good soundtracks with Need For Speed Most Wanted 1
fun fact: the bassline of the song (first thing you hear) is jay-kay beatboxing into a vocalizer!
Another fun fact, it was originally recorded in 2001, for an earlier album.
My God this song is amazing.
