Music video[]
The music video premiered on 18 November 2006 on the German music show VIVA Live.[1]
It was directed by Bastien Francois and was shot in Berlin, Germany.[2] The video stays close to the song's theme of child abuse as it depicts LaFee as an angel who was sent to free a young girl, who is a victim of child abuse, from her abuser. It also features the members of LaFee's band who are depicted as clowns.[1]
The video was nominated for "Best National Video" at the ECHO music awards in 2007.[2]
