Artwork

The cover features a World War II photograph of a soldier loading shells, which originally featured on the cover of Life in September 1939.[1]

Music video

At the time it was described as their "most radio-friendly song"[2] and stylistically more of a "dance song" than their other works.[3] For this reason the band wanted a music video "visual to complement it."[3]

The video was directed by Marcus Nispel, known for his work with C+C Music Factory. On September 2, 1993, the music video was nominated for the MTV Video Music Awards for Best Art Direction, but lost to Madonna's song "Rain" off her album Erotica.[4]
