One Direction went on a different direction from their usually upbeat and settled down for a studio session and shows off their more soulful side in a brand-new minimalist video for their super-sappy ballad, "Little Things," the second cut to be lifted from the British-Irish boy band's upcoming sophomore studio album, "Take Me Home," which will hit the shelves in the UK on November 12 and a day later in the US.
The slow and sentimental ballad, "Little Things" is a song about what a guy loves everything about his girl even the silliest things. This acoustic ballad is one of two songs penned by Ed Sheeran when he was in his teens and they were inspired by a relationship he was in at the time. He revealed to MTV News: "The great thing about it is I wrote that song with a girl called Fiona Bevan when I was 17 and we lost the song. I've kept in touch with Fiona, we've done gigs and stuff and about two months ago she sent me the tune."
One Direction have a few "Little Things" that they want to share in their brand-new video, and most of those little things add up to the fact that they think you are perfect, no matter how you perceive yourself. It's a sweet and subdued, dramatic black-and-white stripped down clip that suits the acoustic ballad perfectly, with nothing flashy - just the fivesome singing, playing instruments, and jamming out together in the studio recording the swoon-worthy track, while each moment is captured by a Polaroid picture.
Taking a stylistic break from their earlier videos, "Little Things" has a far more minimalist vibe and features the boys in the recording studio, gazing into the camera, adjusting sound levels, singing gently into the microphone, and pensively strumming their guitars. The quiet tone of the clip complements the ballad's sentimental lyrics. Needless to say, it's a far cry from the inflatable bananas and Monkees antics of their "Live While We're Young" video, but shows the low key side of all the One Direction group members.
