The video is captivating as well. The lead singer and the girl he's swooning over are at the book store (turning the pages of desire no doubt). He sings the first two verses with acoustic guitar, and when the drums come in,,,BOOM! A flash of light...and they are in the concert arena. She is all glammed up super '80s style, and he is on stage sporting red leather pants with zippers all over the place (leather parachute pants I suppose -- remember those?). The video continues, and they eventually have quite the subway ride home. When I saw that, I thought, "Hey, is that the L in Chicago?" Yup, it is. The band is from Chicago. Love that city! Toward the end of the video, we see that the whole thing was a day dream, and he chases after her when she leaves the bookstore. Alas, he misses her, and she rides away on the L all alone... It's okay. I am sure they found each other eventually and lived happily ever after :)
