5 Seconds of Summer News: Definitive Ranking Of All Their Music Videos, Including ‘Try Hard,’ ‘Heartbreak Girl,’ & More From Before They Were Signed To Capitol Records
5 Seconds of Summer had a fabulous year and with it came multiple professional music videos since they signed to Capitol Records so in honor of their successful year ending we're ranking their music videos thus far, including ones shot prior to the band being on a major label.

The Aussies have nine music videos in total. Four of the nine are from before their major label signing. The other five all have come in 2014. Of those other five, one is a live performance for their version of What I Like About You, which is the lead single off of their recently released live album, LIVESOS.
First is the Aussies' music video for Good Girls. We've never wanted to go to reform school until we saw this music video. Calum Hood, Luke Hemmings, Michael Clifford and Ashton Irwin also show off their comical sides in the opening segment of the video.

Hemmings shared, "A good girl is like sweet lemonade on a hot day."
Hood followed that up with, "A good girl is when you touch the fret of your cello. And you feel the warm embrace."
In the no. 2 slot is their music video for She Looks So Perfect since it really put them on the radar of many this year. Plus, this song was their first release while signed to a major label, which is pretty monumental.
This music video embraced all people, varying in size, shape, color and more, which resonated with many, including a blog on The Huffington Post citing the Australian band as showing why all people are beautiful.
Up next is their video for Heartbreak Girl. This song has been with the band from early on in their career and the video shows them recording, playing live and more. It's a nice glimpse into their early beginnings as a band.
Fourth is Don't Stop since the boys' alter egos surface (Dr. Fluke, Mike-Ro-Wave, Cal Pal and SMASH!) and it's one of the greatest things ever. This is probably their most hilarious music video to date, in which Irwin struggles to save a "lost cat" and more.
At no. 5 is the music video for Amnesia since it shows off the band's sensitive sides and seems incredibly realistic and fits with the lyrics perfectly.
In the no. 6 slot is Out Of My Limit, which is from 2012. It is similar to their Heartbreak Girl video, but focuses more on live performances and fan interaction.
Try Hard is next since its concept is pretty cool. The band is on various rides like a roller coaster at an amusement park as they sing to the camera and then there's live footage of them too.
Next, is their live video for What I Like About You. It's a great visual of all they've accomplished up until now.
To round out our list is their video for Wherever You Are, which is their "thank you" to the 5SOS Fam that they released last September.
