& was set up to have a music video, directed by Steve Loter, who also directed the music video for [[Hidden In The Sand (Song)| Hidden In The Sand]].

<br><q><i>The "&" video is no more. Many hours were committed towards making this video a reality; however, with limited resources, it just didn't happen. To everyone who worked on this video, and all those who submitted your artwork: thank you for the effort and thought you put into this project. Words are insufficient to express our gratitude. </i></q><ref>[https://www.facebook.com/pg/TallyHall/photos/?tab=album&album_id=10150358134649849 Tally Hall & Facebook photo album]</ref> | |||

<i>"This is a video I've had in my head for just about two years now. When I found out there wasn't going to be an & music video, but ALL the fan-submitted &s were there to behold... I knew there still needed to be a product in which to view it."</i> The video now has over 10,000 views.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3H23g5BRy3w Skye AKA HomeStarRunnerTron]</ref> | |||
