 The music video for " Running Back " was directed by Fin Edquist and filmed in Melbourne during the first week of September 2008 , during Flo Rida 's visit to Australia . The video starts off showing a view of the city , before Mauboy appears on the balcony of a bedroom singing the first verse . When the first chorus begins , Flo Rida is seen wandering around in a different bedroom . During the second verse , Mauboy then appears inside the bedroom looking at a photo , packing her bags , and singing in front of a mirror . During this time , Rida is also seen standing in front of a mirror in his bedroom . As the video progresses , Mauboy makes her way towards the car , and Rida then raps his verse on the telephone to her . The video ends showing Mauboy back at the balcony at the bedroom .
