Promises (The Cranberries song)

A music video involving a cowboy confronting a witch/scarecrow hybrid (played by Maïwenn), directed by Olivier Dahan, was released to promote the single.

The cowboy quickly gets on his horse and makes haste back to town, trying to fend off the creature with his pistol along the way while she showers him with energy rays shot from her hands.

Most of the video involves the chase between the scarecrow witch and the deputy, as well as the band members playing their instruments atop the town's water tower.

The deputy finally makes it to town and enters the police station, where he quickly informs the sheriff about the incoming scarecrow and her apparent purpose to free the aforementioned energy orb.

The sheriff, apparently very secure of his gun skills, calms down both of his men and exits the station to challenge the scarecrow to a duel.
