Music video


Filmed in February 1999, the music video for "Saltwater" juxtaposes calm surfing footage, which was shot in Woolacombe, North Devon, where many beaches that are popular surfer destinations are located, with frenzied nightclub footage, which was shot at a studio on Old Street in London as well as at the actual Gatecrasher One club in Sheffield[4] (known as "The Republic" at the time).[5]
