in his face. Music video The music video features all seven of the main cast of the film St. Elmo's Fire looking sadly through the foggy windows of a run-down and fire-damaged version of the St. Elmo's Bar set. The video was directed by Kort Falkenberg III, who devised the concept with the film's director, Joel Schumacher. The production company only had Parr for a single day before he had to go back to England, so the shoot had to be done in exactly 24 hours. The Canadian version of the video intersperses images of Rick Hansen's trek with those of the film. The ending of the video shows Parr singing to each individual cast member from the film before he disappears into the night, and the cast follows him.
