Lovely clip! They are definetely hiding a comb semewhere behind the bushes :lol:
The place looks like a cemetery, though.
I also enjoyed the last part by Cassius, what a beam :D

I love it! It's simple, so it fits very well with the complex song. I like that there are close-ups on most of the boys, and not just on the soloists (who are quite amazing! :) )

I saw it but I didn't realize it was a lion until you mentioned it :lol:

Two thumbs up for the hairdresser and makeup artist! They all look dashing! Stefan is adorable. :D
Anyone here who can guess the location where this was shot?

Maybe i'm unfairly comparing with a byegone era, maybe it's because I've just watched an episode from the sensational 'Frozen Planet' or maybe it's because the Christmas spirit has yet filter through, but the video doesn't feel very 'Christmassy'. That said it seems like an in-house production so I don't want to appear too harsh. The singing and the boys themselves were of course exceptional as always.

You're not being too harsh. I think budget-wise, this is what they had to settle with. Looks cramped, too. On the bright side, we get a new video with some of the newbies (no Tom, Nano-Ben, Ciaran). :wink:

Jimmy, I didn't notice that until you mentioned it, but I agree, not very Christmassy. I don't know much about UK weather, but I don't think it really snows there much at all does it? I guess they could have use fake snow or something, but like you said, it's probably done with a limited budget.
That said, I like it. By far my favorite song the the album.

Awesome video and song. It really shows a changing of the guard. It mainly features all the younger boys, which is good. yeah, i didn't see Josh, Ben, Liam, Jacob Wood, Leggett brothers, Freddie, James M. i guess its time to feature the new talent. These boys have some big shoes to fill but i think they will do a great job.

The visuals are definately autumn-ish. Autumn just turned into "Fall" around here. All the glory of the red and gold leaves just crashed onto the ground. Looks like the boy and I will be spending part of Thanksgiving vacation blowing the leaves off the lawn.

This is by far my favorite video....the subtlety, mixed with the dramatic music is a genius combination, just my opinion :D I look forward to more videos like this one......

I like it. Not very Christmassy, but it's a lovely video. Dare I hope for more?
