Music video

The music video was directed by Ben and Gabe Turner and released on Vevo on 11 December 2014.[2] The video features Murs and Lovato standing in two rooms separated by a wall. They begin to wreck the rooms before Murs uses a guitar to break a hole into the wall and he and Lovato begin to remove most of the bricks in the wall and look upon each other.

Murs and Lovato first performed the song live on the final of the eleventh series of The X Factor on 14 December 2014.[3]
