With the help of a friend who happened to catch the original shoot, they discovered that the Rolling Stones had shot the video on Sweeney's birthday, July 2, which helped them plan a seasonally appropriate shooting schedule. “We were able to use similar locations,” Sherbert added. “The original staircase is now surrounded by businesses, so we shot the almost identical staircase next door. The St. Marks Bar & Grill is gone, and even though there was another bar in the neighborhood with the exact same setup, the International Bar was incredibly welcoming and encouraged us to shoot there, which was just right for it. The window of the apartment with the guy daydreaming was changed, but a neighbor a few doors down let us use hers. It's a DIY neighborhood production and it wouldn't be possible without our friends and neighbors who came together and took time out of their day to help make it happen.” See behind-the-scenes photos from the shoot below.
