Music videos The "Ultraviolet" video was simply a montage of clips filmed at Live at McFly's Wonderland Tour 2005, Manchester and Behind the Scenes of their first Arena tour. The Ballad of Paul K video was a little different. The video uses a blend of live action and animation. It is often considered to be in the style of Tim Burton movies, especially The Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride. In a TV interview, McFly admitted that watching the video now does scare them slightly.
