Synopsis
The music video for "Rose" presents The Feeling in a bright, polished performance setting, with the band delivering the song's affectionate celebration of rose wine. Close-ups of Dan Gillespie Sells and the group are mixed with playful, romantic imagery that reflects the track's flirtatious mood. Rather than following a detailed narrative, the clip emphasizes the song's catchy, summery character and its central metaphor: rose as something refreshing, intoxicating and impossible to resist.
