'Wrong Direction' Lay Into Mitt Romney In Suggestive Pop Video

Many boys wish they could be in One Direction. Just think of all the attention, free parties and girls you'd get.
Full Frontal Freedom has certainly got the right ingredients - good voices, pretty faces, gym-honed bodies and a video involving little clothing. Although, judging by the lyrics, I think they have rather different motives to the British boy band.
Full Frontal Freedom is 'a coalition of independent artists and media executives' who aim to use their 'talent and creativity to raise awareness and enhance civil discourse'.
The 'anti-PAC' group has even formed their own pop group and named themselves 'Wrong Direction' in this parody to One Direction's 'What Makes You Beautiful'.
However, girls (and most boys), I'm afraid you're going to have to learn some new lyrics. Instead of singing along to, 'so girl, come on, you've got it wrong, to prove I'm right, I put it in a so-o-ong', you'll have to sing, 'so, so come on, the right is wrong, you'll be exposed as a fraud before too lo-o-ong'. Controversial.
They sing their song 'Disclosure' with cheeky grins and smouldering looks, which takes some of the edge off the harshness of their words. It is basically telling presidential hopeful Mitt Romney that he needs to disclose his tax returns and his off-shore accounts. It also is an excellent method of getting young people to listen to their message. I wonder if David Cameron has ever thought of this.
The video involves lots of choreographed dance moves and jumping into pools. Also a few quite graphic close-ups, which makes me almost positive that the video wasn't secretly commissioned by Team Obama.
They have other parodies you can watch online, but have really hit the big time with 'Disclosure'. Since being released 5 days ago, the clip has generated 72,101 shares and 3,109,485 views. Let's just hope they don't do Carly Rae Jepsen next...
