Hi! I really didn't know what I was supposed to write because everyone was writing about there time at STN Practice so I decided to write about the best music videos. I'm going to talk about my favorite music video, story of my life, the 2nd thing I want to talk about is what the whole music video is. Lastly I want to talk about why it's good and the shots. The story of my life is a really good music video and I hope you like it!
The first thing I want to talk about is what story of my life is. Best Song Ever is the new album's Live While We're Young, this song is the album's softer, acoustic-based single is definitely its Little Things. Ed Sheeran didn't have a hand in this somber love song, but it sure sounds like it, thanks to writing and lyrical contributions from every member of the band. "Story of My Life" is a song recorded by British-Irish boy band One Direction. It was released on 25 October 2013 by Syco Music andColumbia Records as the second single from the group's third studio album, This song was actually written by James Scott and One Direction itself!
The video was directed by Ben Winston, who also directed the video for Best Song Ever. It was then officially uploaded on November 3rd. The video features some the band's family members: Zayn Malik's sister, Harry Style's mother, Liam Payne's parents and sisters, Niall Horan's brother and Louis Tomlinson`s grandparents (two of whom are now deceased). It 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. Photos included in the video consist of: Malik, aged 7, with his little sister; Tomlinson, aged 8, with his grandparents; Styles, aged 4, with his mother; Horan, aged 4, with his brother being aged 10 when the photo was taken; Payne aged 10, with his family dressed formally.
These are reviews from normal people so this is not written all by me. The song received positive reviews from critics. Sam Lanksy of Idolator called the song "surprisingly great" and noted it was a "mature midpoint" between the group's signature "rollicking pop-rock confection[s]" and "dreary ballads". Lanksy additionally called the song "merciful" and complimented it for using alternative-folk influences without "smell[ing] like spilled beer".[4] Amy Sciarretto of PopCrush gave the song 4 out of 5 stars, calling it a "contemplative, acoustic guitar-driven song" and complimenting it for being "more memorable" than any of the group's previous works. Sciarretto noted that the song would resonate with listeners of many different ages and showed that One Direction "isn't just a boy band"; although noted the song was not as "crazy catchy" as their previous songs.[1] Lauren Wheeler of TheCelebrityCafe.com gave the song 5 out of 5 stars noting that the lyrics were "reflective" and "much deeper than some of their bigger hits." Wheeler added that the song showed that One Direction "not only have range, but also have matured through their music."[5]
That's all of it! Thanks for reading!
