While he&#8217;s absolutely enamoured of her, he despairs that she doesn&#8217;t want to treat him in the same way. He questions why he&#8217;s committed to this relationship, when the same isn&#8217;t returned, but the mysteriousness of the object of his affections just makes all the more keen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The video for &#8216;My Baby&#8217;, shot in black and white, plays out like a film noir detective story. Following the murder of a young woman. Duprai tries to piece together the accusations and suspects. A beautiful woman, the lead singer of the \u201cKit Katt Club\u201d, has a number of love interests including a mayor and a mobster.
