One Direction unveiled the brand-new visual for their folk-esque tune "Story of My Life," the second single with each member posting a photo from their childhood, taken from English-Irish boy band's upcoming third studio album, "Midnight Memories," which will hit shelves on November 25th. The boys have been teasing for the past week with adorable family photo album snaps. Despite that slight hiccup with VEVO accidentally leaking the video for "Story of My Life" two days early, the boys are back with another premiere of the video, and it's a family affair.
It's yet another clip that's going to warm the deep, dark cockles of your heart too as Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson have decided it's about time to pay tribute to their nearest and dearest, getting their families well and truly involved with the video, as they are surrounded by pictures that tell their stories and they even recreate some of the pics in present day with their family members. It's a real heartfelt number. And it looks like the boys have been little heart breakers from day one as the chart-topping band share some adorable childhood photos.
"Story of My Life" is a mid-tempo, guitar-driven pop song with influences of folk pop, neofolk, arena rock, and alternative rock, which is said to be autobiographical with the band sticking to the theme as they tweeted their nostalgic photos as a toddler to promote the release of their new single. On the soaring ballad, the guys of One Direction channel the folk pop sound of "American Idol" winner Phillip Phillips. Whilst the cute childhood photos have no doubt got fans cooing the single's artwork features a more contemporary picture of the band with the boys seen sprawled out on a road alongside some excerpted lyrics.
To match the song's indie sound, the One Direction band members look rugged as they hang up their personal photographs up as they look back on their rise to fame in the tender new clip, directed by Ben Winston who also directed their previous video for the "Best Song Ever." Malik said in an interview last week that "Story of My Life" deals with old memories so the video seems to line up that theme. The emotional video starts in a dark room with the band developing photos. Afterwards, certain family photos for each member are shown, and the photos morph into the same family members doing a current recreation of the photos.
