Music video

The music video was released in YouTube through Brown's official YouTube account on 19 September 2013.[4] The music video shows Brown leaving out of her house wearing her office uniform and reading bill letters. Before getting in her car, she throws all the bill letters and decides to strip all of her clothes in the middle of the street. It cuts back to a scene, where Brown is dancing with her girlfriends. As the video progresses, she gets a scissor from a gardener and replaces a model in a photoshoot. Brown then starts cutting her shirt and hair. As she removes her shirt off, she is seen with a shorter hair and a different outfit. She runs through the next house where a house party is happening. She starts dancing with people. Before leaving the house party, she sees a clone of herself and gives her clone a kiss in the lips. After the kiss, she winks in front of the camera and immediately gets out of the house. Jumping and twirling in the middle of the street, Brown makes her last outfit change and starts dancing again. A crowd of people joins to dance with her. Brown gives a peace sign at the end.

A behind the scenes footage of making of the music video for "For Once in My Life" was shown in Access Hollywood.[5] The video was filmed on Colonial Street, a backlot set at Universal Studios Hollywood most known for being the set of ABC's Desperate Housewives.
