One Direction's Best Music Videos, Ranked
Access Hollywood

The past few months have been filled with brand new music from each member of One Direction. New singles, albums, movies, and music videos have been flooding One Direction fans, however, there's nothing quite like the music videos the group created together. I looked forward to each new video that was released while they were together but I think there are some that are by far better than others. Here are each of One Direction's music videos ranked:

15. Gotta Be You


While I love every video One Direction has released, this one is definitely the most cringe-worthy. The song isn't one of my favorites already but the video and outfits throughout make me want to switch to the next video pretty quickly. Out of all the videos I watched, this is the one I watched the least.

14. What Makes You Beautiful

I definitely have a spot for this video in my heart since it was their very first one, however it's not one that I like to watch over and over again. They are completely adorable in this video and so young but when they sing to the girl in the video, I cringe a little bit again.

13. Drag Me Down

I love this video a lot and it's so cool that they were able to film at NASA's Johnson Space Center, but it was also the very first video without Zayn. It broke my heart when he left and it just didn't feel the same watching this for the first time without him.

12. Perfect

This is another video without Zayn but I definitely like watching this one a lot! I love that it's in black and white and seeing all of them running around a hotel and having fun.

11. One Thing

I definitely like this one because of the outfits and hairstyles. This is prime hairstyle time for all of them. Beyond that it's a great video and it's fun but a few of the other are just so random and funny that I couldn't put this one farther up on the list.

10. Live While Were Young

I love seeing the guys have fun with their videos and I definitely think that's what they did with this one. It makes you want to hang out with them and do all the different activities they got to try while filming this video.

9. Midnight Memories

This is one of the more random videos that are just so much fun to watch. There's something about the aesthetic of this video that I absolutely love! The dark colors and the opening is just so great!

8. You and I

This one was a little strange the first time I watched it. I was not expecting each person to turn into the next but it was so cool once I realized what was happening.

7. Kiss You

This is one that just seemed like so much fun to make and I love all the different outfits they wore!

6. One Way Or Another

This is such a cool video because they worked on it themselves rather than hiring people to make their video. This was so much fun to watch because it showed them as they were on tour and it seemed like they had so much fun creating it.

5. Steal My Girl

This is just such a random and strange video that you can't not love to watch it!

4. Night Changes

This was such a fun idea and I think it was something that all the fans really loved. This was filmed in a way that it looked as if you were the person on a date with each member of the band that goes horribly wrong in the end. I smiling throughout the whole video the first time I watched it.

3. Story of My Life

I remember watching this one when it leaked right before it was supposed to come out and I was just so amazed. It made me cry watching each of them with their families throughout the video. This one allowed fans to see into each of their families.

2. History

This was the last video they released together before they went their separate ways. Seeing all the different clips from the year before was a wonderful way to say goodbye for now to the group and say thank you to all the fans for supporting them for so long. I also think this was a really great way to say goodbye to the era of One Direction that included Zayn. It still makes me tear up to watch this video

1. Best Song Ever

This is by far the video I love to watch the most! With each of them dressing up and taking on different roles to create more of a story throughout this one, it made it so much more fun to watch. This was the one I looked forward to the most before it came out and it did not disappoint.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
