Recorded before the Coronavirus Pandemic, the music video features Harry sitting at a table on an idyllic beach, before he is joined by A LOT of beautiful women.
In just a day, the music video has had more than 9 million views on YouTube, with fans saying how amazing it is. One fan commented, 'HARRY WE MISSED YOU!', with another saying, 'i have no words to describe the joy that this masterpiece has brought me' (sic)
