As you are probably aware, on Thursday (September 20), One Direction
unveiled their brand-new video for "Live While We're Young," a
rollicking three-minute romp through all your summer camp memories that
also carves out ample time for the guys to appear shirtless.
See, the history of boy bands is filled with clips like this, where we
find the handsome guys messing around to maximum effect. The Beatles and
the Monkees made videos like this (back then, said hijinks were usually
played at twice the normal speed, for hilarity's sake), and so did the
New Kids on the Block, 'NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys. It is practically
a time-honored tradition, in a genre where time is almost certainly the
enemy. And I'd like to think that the guys in One Direction are smart
enough to realize this, which is why they seem to be playing up the
sheer ridiculousness of the concept. When they are singing into giant
inflatable microphones or splashing around in a pond, they're doing it knowingly, and it's all they can do to hide the wry smiles from their perfectly boned faces. You've got to admire them for that.
