After a hard year of lockdown, the brief for this music video was simple – make something joyful that people will smile at. With the coming together of two massive British stars and a summer hit, the video also required epic visuals.

The resulting promo, directed by Raman Djafari, features a combination of 3D and hand-drawn animation. It follows the journey of four disco-dancing friends as they move through galaxies that are increasingly dense with colour and nature. Along the way, they make friends with all the spectacular life they find, spreading joy as they go. They end their journey dancing with Elton and Dua at the best garden party this side of the Milky Way.
