The song is part of a musical play called Chess.
It's about a Chess player who attends a tournament in Bangkok, a city that was for many years known for it's prostitution, brothels and nuddie bars, especially among Americans. (Watch "The Girl From Bangkok", a film that came out in the early nineties). He's there for the chess, but all this stuff is going on around him.
Remember that videos are usually made by different people that write/produce/sing the songs. So there doesn't necessarily has to be a relationship between them. Sorry, I saw the video many years ago, so I don't remember many details.
Last year the Vinylshakerz made a Dance Remix of the song.
(The artist is Murray Head)
