Music video

The video for "Downtown" was made to promote the first single from Impeach My Bush. In the video Peaches plays two characters, a woman in a red dress and a man. Both of them interact in the video. In the end Peaches the man seems dead or passed out while androgynous Peaches cleans her face in front of a mirror.
