- The music video featured people dancing in a pose similar to the pose depicted in the Ancient Egyptian reliefs that inspired songwriter Liam Sternberg; while most of them are ordinary people, some famous figures and objects were depicted dancing in that same pose through the use of simple special effects, including Princess Diana, Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi, and the Statue of Liberty. In a popular scene from the video, Hoffs was filmed in a close-up where her eyes moved from side to side, looking left and right. When asked about the scene in an interview with online magazine PlanetOut.com, Hoffs explained that she was actually looking at individual audience members during the video shoot, which took place with a live audience. Looking directly at individual audience members was a technique she used to overcome stage fright, and she was unaware that the camera had a close-up on her while she was employing this technique, switching between one audience member on her left and one on her right.

- A lady is given a pendant that has been found in an ancient Egyptian tomb. It is said that anything its wearer's hands rest upon will disappear. The lady soon finds, to her horror, that this is true and she hastily orders her cook to throw it away. The cook presents it to her friend the iceman, however, and when the iceman embraces her in an ecstasy of gratitude the cook vanishes in his arms. Astounded, for he knows nothing whatever about the mysterious quality of the pendant he is wearing, the iceman starts back, and other objects disappear upon which he chances to place his hands. Finally the wall of the house vanishes and the iceman runs to his wagon, which crumbles to nothing under his touch. This is too much for the brain of the iceman, and as soon as he can, for the moment, recover himself he hurries away, only to find the mysterious horror still with him wherever he goes. A baby carriage disappears under his touch, and the amazed nurse finds her charge sprawling on the sidewalk; a street car he attempts to board turns to thin air and car and passengers fall to the street; a park bench dematerializes and a pair of lovers sitting on it go with a crash to the ground. He can't understand it all himself and it is little wonder, therefore, with such a chain of strange events weighing on his mind, that then he finally sees his visage in a mirror he is shocked beyond measure. He reels toward it, puts his trembling hand forward, touches the reflection of himself and, bing! There is a puff of smoke, and the iceman and mirrored self have vanished. With his own touch he sent himself the way of all other things he had placed hand upon that fatal morning, and the Egyptian pendant went with him.

The International Committee of the Red Cross, Amnesty International, Society for Threatened Peoples, Refugees International (and many other humanitarian organizations) have demanded in writing to the UN the immediate evacuation of these three camps. This film encourages the international community to intervene.
