Bland really. Seeing Vanessa making an effort to get into the mood of the song is the only interesting thing out of the video otherwise it's quite boring:yawn:. Beautifully shot though but doesn't offer anything more than 'Issues' did before. You even wonder why the trouble to fly all the way to Iceland to come up with such a standard video...I was expecting a bit more after seeing the teaser, although I suspected it might just be a pretty-looking video full of poses and fashion accessories on the show. And it was! Think now they can expect a contract for to be the face of Top Shop's next Winter collection anytime soon!?

What were you expecting?

Wearing leather outfits, dancing on icebergs out in the Icelandic sea?

The video suits the song and vice versa. Sometimes less is more, and definitely so in this case. These girls can never win.

Maybe because you couldn't get that scenery in the UK?

Stunning video and suits the song completely. They all look amazing, especially Vanessa who is always the most natural in their videos.

The scenery isn't that different to the UK at all, I am sure you can get it in Scotland for example, with the mountains and rocks, lakes etc.

Beautiful video, the girls look amazing! One of my favourite videos from them definitely.

I hope this song can be their first #1, Rochelle sounds so good on it.

It is very much like Issues and Missing You (except in the cold/wind), but it is still beautiful nevertheless.

The song is shaping up to be my favourite Saturdays single yet... I truly hope it gets to #1.

The last chorus is absolutely beautiful, and all the girls look bloody fantastic (except Rochelle, strangely) but I do agree the first two choruses are basically a repeat, video wise.

I haven't been in Scotland since I was 11 but some parts of Ireland are kinda similar, at least where I am anyway.

It's nice like... it's just not "Wow" in alot of places.

Also, I amn't feeling the urge to rewatch it, even though the song gave me the urge to re-listen again and again.

Overall, I'd give it a C+/B- just because it is beautiful in parts and does fit the mood of the song, but lacks any visual build up despite the song building up.

Oh I love a good Wintery video! It is stunning!

Mollie looks drop dead gorgeous and I love Frankie's dress billowing in the wind!

Looks more like an extended M&S advert for their winter 2011 range So bland and disappointing.

That would have provoked a reaction for sure!??

Just a bit more commitment to what the song seems to be about and creativity would have made the trick instead of them parading in pretty outfits, looking demure in cold surroundings, which verge on almost on the silly.:yawn: It's just disappointing that's all.

Overall it's a really boring video. The girls look stunning but i find the song and video pretty bland. I really don't think they should of released this as a single.

I don't really know how anyone can have an opinion on it really, it's nothing special. Four minutes of the girls walking along pretty scenery...

I'd much rather them walking round some rocks than walking through Paris like Adele did (now THATS boring).

Either way, It's a shame it didnt have a story line to reflect the song, but hey, It's still beautifully shot.

At least you can interpret Adele's video as having some story to it, like there she is wandering around the city of romance on her own singing about lost love. It feels suitably sad and so matches the song very well.

In the Sat's video, you can almost here the director shouting "ok Frankie love, strike a beauty pose..now!"
Vanessa seems to be the only one making a real effort.

I enjoyed the song and video but thought the auto-tune bit in the middle was really inappropriate for a ballad. If it was an up-tempo then I wouldn't have minded so much. Loved the scenery too, I've been to Iceland before too

All the best for the girls with this song.

Vanessa sounds incredible during the song but I hope she can pull it off live after the All Fired Up promo I have my doubts. Maybe it was cause it was a dancey song.

Vanessa has been having trouble with her voice all year. Her 'Notorious' performances were difficult to watch.
