Music Video
The accompanying music video for "I Want to Come Over", directed by Pam Thomas, was shot on-location at an old hotel in Los Angeles, California.[1] Actress Gwyneth Paltrow stars in the video. In the clip, Paltrow drives to her lover's apartment, sits outside in her car and breaks down, before collecting herself and going inside the apartment building.[1] The video is interspersed with scenes of Etheridge performing in the hotel's lobby.[1] The hotel had one resident still living in the building at the time of the shoot.[1] To keep him out of the areas of the building where they were filming, the director and crew gave the man a bottle of Chivas Regal whiskey.
