Dance song from around 2000 - girl running through train station and deserted streets? What is it?! Help!

I can't remember anything about it except I really liked it years agoGrin

The music video featured a girl (maybe with a guy but not sure?) running through what I think was a train station and urban streets with no other people around. Was a big chart hit around 2000, maybe a year earlier or a couple later.

Does this ring any bells for anyone?

Possibly Lasgo - Alone? Video looks like a strange futurist building which has a lift with train like doors...

Encore une fois by sash?

Missing by Everything But the Girl?

Not the Slumdog one? Or is that too late?

("Jai ho"?)

Lasgo with Something? Always reminds me of Amsterdam centraal but I don’t think it’s actually there

Is it Darude - Sanstorm?

The first thing that came to mind was sneaker pimps six underground. Probably nothing like that.

Stabbitha · 15/10/2019 21:18

I pictured what you described and the lyrics like the desert miss the rain came into my head.

StealthPolarBear · 15/10/2019 21:20

Stabbitha that's missing by everything but the girl. Don't think thays it.

Stabbitha · 15/10/2019 21:20

Just googled and it's been mentioned above

Missing by Everything But The Girl

AmazingBouncingFerret · 15/10/2019 21:21

Till I come?

PiggyPlumPie · 15/10/2019 21:22

I thought of White Town - Your Woman, but I think that was around 97 so probably too early.

AmazingBouncingFerret · 15/10/2019 21:23

I just had to google, the full title was 9pm (till I come) maybe? My memory is hazy of the early 2000’s for many reasons!

Stabbitha · 15/10/2019 21:23

Yeah I think the first scene and the train lyric is the red herring there.

Wasn't the sliding doors song was it?

Turn back time by Aqua

Roger Sanchez, Another Chance (long shot, it's a girl in a city but it's not deserted).

Hideaway by Kiesza?

Ahh I really thought that Lasgo one sounded familiar but not it!

Thank you for all suggestions, I'm not making it easy Grin

Alice Deejay- The Lonely One?

ChicCroissant · 15/10/2019 21:50

I think I was thinking of the Sanchez one too, is that where she is carrying a heart that gets smaller (until the end)?

NameChangeofMyOwn · 15/10/2019 21:51

There's an Editors song where he runs...is it Papillon?

DrMaryMalone · 15/10/2019 21:52

7 Days 1 Week by BBE? It's more walking than running I think.

DartmoorChef · 15/10/2019 21:54

I thought of Missing by Everyone but the girl too.. First thing that came into my head.

Fi1982 · 15/10/2019 21:58

Real McCoy, Another Night? Possibly too early (showing my age).
