The heartthrobs of One Direction have finally treated their fans around the world to the premiere of their brand new music video for 'Little Things'.

The song, which was penned by singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran, is romantic and emotional and the video reflects the simple nature of the lyrics as it's shot solely in black and white and just shows the lads singing while three of the members play along on acoustic guitars.

Speaking about the track recently, Sheeran described it as having some of the favourite lines he's ever written: "It's got one of my favourite lines that I've ever written in a song. Harry says, 'I know you never like the sound of your voice on tape and you never like to know how much you weigh and you still have to squeeze into your jeans but you're perfect to me'."

One Direction also took to their individual Twitter pages earlier this week to thank fans for the overwhelming response to the song's lyric video, with Harry Styles writing: "So good to see your comments on 'Little Things' we're so happy that you like it. Can't wait for you to hear the rest of the album .xx"
