Music video
A music video to accompany the release of "Take Me Over" was first released on YouTube on 19 November 2014 at a total length of four minutes and one second. The video was directed by Frank Meets Wolf (Jeff Johnson and Max Miller). The video follows a young imaginative boy (William Franklyn-Miller) whose parents are in the middle of a fight. During the fight, the boy imagines he is an astronaut on a beach who meets a girl (Meika Woollard), before they play/explore together and escape from an attack by a masked villain. The boy's mother, a smoker, then takes the boy away from his home. The boy then imagines he is a knight who leads an army of grown-up knights to fight against another group of knights who have the girl captive. The boy rescues the girl and the two are confronted by a knight, the father, who is defeated by the two children. The video ends with the mother and the boy at the park, where the boy sees the girl arrive at the park, indicating that the two become friends. The video received universal acclaim from viewers.
