It was my first time watching his video and honestly I would say I loved it. All the moves in the video looks so simple while we see it. We could see from the beginning of the video, we could see a small conversation between Gene and his girlfriend. Later he kisses and departed from his love. Then he starts to dance in the rain with exotic happiness and fun. The dress which he wore in this video looked quite formal with a hat and an umbrella.

Its just him expressing his emotions and feeling through dance in the
