The first one was made by an outfit called Rockflix, shot in green
rolling fields, among trees, on film and featured KaTe wearing a red
dress. This wasn't used for promotion in the UK, but used elsewhere
according to PDFM's chronology. AS I've mentioned before, this one's
available on a UK videocassette: "Seventies Rock and Pop, 1978".

The "official" UK one, features KaTe in studio wearing a white dress,
shot on video. (on TSF and TWS videos)

The choreography of the two are similar, but do differ in parts.

There's also the Live at Hammersmith Odeon concert video performance,
featuring a lot of dry ice, as I remember.
