Music Video
There were three music videos released for "Feel the love": one directed by Azumaya Yusuke, another being a lyric video and the last was an animation by Riff Studios.
The first music video opens with a large-figured woman cutting images of herself and sticking them on portraits of a blonde male. As she sticks it on her wall, she begins a quest to lose weight for the man in the photo, and starts running and exercising. Near the end of the video, the girl decides to get a makeover, whilst a stylist dresses her in a pink dress. She runs towards the man in a park, though he is disinterested and walks away. A man holding a balloon bumps into the woman, and as the camera pans away to the balloons floating towards the sky, the woman turns into Hamasaki. The man who walked away from the woman then sees Hamasaki, walks to her, and both hug each other.
The lyric music videos features Hamasaki singing in her studio.
The animated version features AyuPan and a bunny character names Bloody Bunny. AyuPan then plays the song from her space ship, and makes the aliens feel happy; they all begin dancing to the track. It ends with the world turning pink instead of blue, and has heart shapes around it.
