Text in italics is a voiceover/lyrics to the song being played.
The video begins by showing a kitchen scene. There’s a toaster with bread in it next to a vase of yellow roses, and we hear birdsong.
We see a hand reach out to tune a retro-style radio and then a hand grabbing toast as it pops up out of the toaster. Burnt into the slices of toast are the words ‘This Girl Can’.
(At this point a female voice says): There’s so many things we like about you. (It’s the start of a reimagining of the BodyRockers track I Like The Way.)
A fast, vertical swipe transition – the first of several in the video – takes us to a shot of a woman walking down a street in a city with a shopping bag.
The scene switches to a woman watering flowers at the front of her house.
We just don’t know where to begin
We see a scene of a family under a big tree in a grassy area on a housing estate. A man sits with a young boy on a rug; four women throw a bean bag between them.
The fast-paced transitions continue as we see two smiling women descending stairs in a house and another woman walking down a shopping street.
We like the way you… show you care
A pregnant woman places a plate of toast on a kitchen table; her two daughters are stood beside it.
Another woman and her daughter play with a pretend medical kit on a bed.
A woman walks briskly in the park; this quickly changes to a shot of the pregnant woman from before, walking down a residential street beside her daughter.
We like the way you’re… always there
We see jump cuts of a wheelchair user parking a car, exiting, sitting in the wheelchair and moving away.
Two women roll out and then sit on yoga mats in a living room as the pre-chorus guitar kicks in
But most of all…
The camera pans across three women sitting on mats in a hall with their eyes closed during a pregnancy yoga class.
Yeah, most of all…
(There’s a building sense of anticipation as we approach the chorus.)
A group of seven women laugh outside a building, before making their way up some stairs into it.
Two girls write on a white children’s easel in a kitchen as their mum looks on. ‘This Girl Can’ is spelt out in plastic magnetic letters above where they’re writing.
There’s a temporary pause in the music before the chorus drops, and we rapidly transition from a woman punching her boxing gloves together in a garden to shots of the three pregnancy yoga women, the women on the living room yoga mats, and the group of seven women in an exercise studio inside the building – they’re all stretching their arms upwards.
(The voice becomes more electronic and powerful as it sings the chorus.)
We like the way you move
(The guitar-based backing track returns.)
The wheelchair user rapidly wheels across an indoor court during a game of wheelchair rugby, before we see a close-up of a woman tying a bootlace on an outdoor artificial pitch; this then pans up and the woman runs off as a whistle sounds.
The women in the studio take part in a dance fitness class, raising and touching their knees and then twirling in pairs as the singer vocalises.
A woman throws a beanbag on the grassy area we saw earlier, before we see the woman who was watering her flowers at the start of the video throwing a beach ball with two young boys in her back garden.
We like the way you move
A woman playing walking football calls for the ball, with her hand in the air, with the ball then passed to her and the camera following it at pitch level.
