Music video
Route scheme in the music video
The music video was shot with the actor Robert Downey Jr. walking through Greystone Mansion and lip-syncing the song.[7] Video director Sam Taylor-Johnson shot 16 takes of the video and used the last one because, according to John, Downey looked completely relaxed, and, "The way he underplays it is fantastic".[8]
