Music video[edit]
1992 version[edit]
Wheel Of Fortune Music
The original version's music video was directed by Viking Nielson and features all four original members.
It begins with Linn singing. A woman is sitting in a chair on the middle of a big wheel of fortune. Then different characters appear along the video. Like a boxing blonde, a little girl playing with an hourglass, a bride in an wedding dress, an angel playing with a golden ball and an older couple. Sometimes the woman in the chair also appears with a man or with the older couple. In between these characters, we see the four members of Ace of Base performing standing together in a circle with their backs against each other. Linn sometimes sings in the chair on the wheel. Other times she sings standing with Jenny. Joker and Buddha are seen playing on different instruments such as keyboard, drum, and trumpet. Occasionally, a clockwise turns in the background.
2009 version[edit]
The 2009 re-recording was the first and only single released by the band as a trio. For this version, the label decided not to shoot a video for the song. However, a promo video was published on 21 October 2008 on the band's official website. Similar to their 1998 single 'Always Have Always Will', the video completely consists of live footage from their Redefined tour and video footage from a photoshoot. The edit used in the video is a combination of the radio and album versions, lasting at 3:15 minutes.[2]
Chart performance[edit]
The 1992 version failed to reach the singles chart on its first two releases, but when it was re-released a third time in September, it eventually reached number two. After the success of 'All That She Wants' in the United Kingdom, it was released as the second UK single and it reached number 20 in the UK Singles Chart in August 1993.
