English-Irish boy band The Wanted celebrates the joys of a good night out in just-released visuals for new party anthemic pop/folk song, "We Own the Night," from their upcoming third studio album "Word of Mouth," which is scheduled to hit the stores in September 23rd via Island Records. When the time came to shoot the video for "We Own the Night," The Wanted knew the only way to perfectly encapsulate the feel-good vibe of the party track was to head to the pub and drink the night away.
The Wanted's manager Scooter Braun told MTV News about this drinking song-like party tune. "It is an anthem," he said. "It is an anthem for anyone who ever had a drink and a good time. It's a perfect The Wanted song, but it's like... it's them. It's a little British to it. It's a little bit of everybody at the bar will be singing this at the top of their lungs [type song]. And it's just a really great, great record. I play it around the office and people just go 'What is that?' And they love it. When the boys finished it, we all listened to it and they said 'This is the record we've been looking for - because this is us.'"
Nathan Sykes, Max George, Siva Kaneswaran, Tom Parker and Jay McGuiness have provided an insight into a typical night out for The Wanted lads and can be seen partying in a London bar with their pals on a night out as they flirt, carouse, laugh drink, sing, dance on top of the bar, and make out with their respective ladies. Filmed in a local Camden pub by director Frank Borin, the five-piece's other antics include playing a game of darts, partying with a group of flirty girls and taking advantage of the bar before strolling home in the early hours. And that's exactly the kind of music video this boy band likes to make.
And much like the good-natured video celebrates British pub culture, the guys also wanted to ensure that the song also pays homage to their homeland with just the right flourishes. "[We wanted to] make it a lot more chantey and make it very feel-good and I think we were able to do that. And we wanted to add a real British feel to it and so we added in the bag pipes," Sykes explained. "This video we really just wanted to go back to being The Wanted and have a video along the lines of 'Glad You Came,' which is all about having a lot of fun with a load of good-looking girls, which is awesome," Sykes said. The boys are really own the night!
