Shot in a first-person POV, viewers were made to feel like they were sitting down at a fancy restaurant with Zayn Malik, ice skating with Harry Styles, riding shotgun next to Louis Tomlinson, sitting by a cozy fire with Niall Horan and walking around a carnival with Liam Payne.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tAs the guys sing the mellow lyrics to the hit song in the video, things hilariously start to go wrong on each of their \u201cdates.\u201d A disgruntled ex dumps spaghetti on Malik\u2019s head, Styles injures himself and his love interest in a misguided move on the ice, Tomlinson is pulled over and arrested by a road cop, Horan accidentally sets his sweater sleeve on fire and Payne vomits in his date\u2019s hat after getting too dizzy on a spinning fair ride.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cWe\u2019re only gettin\u2019 older, baby\/ And I\u2019ve been thinking about it lately\/ Does it ever drive you crazy\/ Just how fast the night changes?\u201d the quintet sings in unison as the video\u2019s vibes quickly turn from romantic to catastrophic. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tReleased as a single from 1D\u2019s fourth studio album, <em>Four<\/em>, \u201cNight Changes\u201d is considered a staple in the boy band\u2019s catalog.
