Music video

A music video to accompany the release of "Headlights" was first released onto YouTube on 3 April 2015 at a total length of three minutes and forty-nine seconds.[1] The video features a small group of pool-goers in an abandoned waterpark in Algarve, Portugal. The people do water-related stunts in the empty pools. The video ends with a couple posing with, and then driving off in a Toyota Aygo, with the numberplate "AYGO8"- which suggests that the video is simply just one long advert for the Toyota Aygo.
