This song was a part of an attempt to rebrand Donny Osmond as a contemporary rocker.  The song was a hit and the video was popular on MTV but once an Osmond, always an Osmond.

The video is pure Michael Bay.  Donny, several hot women, and a group of construction workers drive out to the middle of the desert.  While Donny looks over blue prints and gives orders, the models and the day laborers start carrying boards and hammering nails.  Are they building a house or a temple?  No, it turns out that they’re building a stage so that Donny can perform in front of an audience that spontaneously shows up.  Donny does such a good job performing that it starts to rain and the video goes from being in black and white to being in color.  Bay directs with the same style that he would later bring to his feature films.  This video presents Donny Osmond as an epic hero and it nearly works.

It would be easy to mistake this video for being the most wholesome beer commercial ever made.

Enjoy!
