The video largely revolves around a woman who is in the club looking for her boyfriend and is heartbroken when she sees him with another woman. The official music video for 'Believe', directed by Nigel Dick, features Cher in a nightclub in a double role as a singer on stage while wearing a glowing headdress and as a supernatural being in a cage (with auto-tuned voice) surrounded by many people to whom she is giving advice. 'Believe' also was ranked as the number-one song of 1999 by 'Billboard' on both the 'Billboard' Hot 100 and Hot Dance Club Play charts and became the biggest single in her entire career. She also set a mark for longest gap after her first number one song 'I Got You Babe' released in 1965 with her then-husband Sonny Bono, and beat the record held by former The Beatles' lead guitarist, George Harrison, who first hit the top of the charts in 1964 with The Beatles' 'I Want to Hold Your Hand', and almost 24 years he had his last number-one song, 'Got My Mind Set on You'. Cher also set the record for a solo artist with the longest span of time between number one hits, since 'Dark Lady' reached number one in 1974. On January 23, 1999, it reached the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached number one on the chart on March 13, making Cher the oldest female artist (at the age of 52) to perform this feat. The song, recorded and released in 1998, peaked at number one in 23 countries worldwide.
