Accompanying the track is an equally brilliant animated music video directed by Jones’s brother, Michael Cadwallader Jones, a former Disney animator. The video bursts with color and energy, featuring rainbows, bright primary hues, and dancers swirling in bubbles. It visually encapsulates the song’s uplifting message, reminiscent of vibrant sixties show posters brought to life.
