Music video

The music video for "Nessaja" opens with a limousine pulling up outside a large white mansion. Women in dresses and men in suits get out of the car and go inside the house. Many people are waiting for a 'show' to start behind a red curtain. When the music starts, H.P. Baxxter comes out from behind the curtain and starts rapping. The people start dancing and then there are some shots of women dressed in underwear and rabbit ears in the same room (although it is empty). The video comes back to Scooter for a while, then cuts back to the two women, who are now topless. The women are later seen in bathtubs, now wearing bikinis. The rest of the video shows H.P. Baxxter rapping and people dancing and partying. At the end of the video there is confetti on the floor and everyone is asleep, apart from Scooter, who then leave in a limousine.
