The One Direction thread!
OK, I know Reality TV bands have this stigma amidst them—it sucks, but it happens. In fact, many acts who come from Reality TV tend to be taken less seriously, unfortunately.

I really hope this band can just add to the success stories Reality TV has been producing lately, especially in Britain.

Thus I present: One Direction.

Their major debut single "What Makes You Beautiful:"


Spoiler:


From left to right: Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne


-----

Can I just say you can't help but smile when you listen to this song?

I'm not really fans of them, but I'm really happy they're doing so well. I remember watching the X Factor and seeing their band put together - just over a year ago~ So it's great they're already getting worldwide recognition.

I didn't like them on X Factor, but their first single+b-side are really nice. I'll definitely check out their album when it's released next month.

OH MY GOD THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS THREAD! I AM SUCH A HUGE FANGIRL!!!!!

My favorite is Niall (actually by a long shot but he is just my type lololol). But I love them all.

I also have a 1D tumblr at http://niallispretty.tumbr.com so follow me if you like Niall (and 1D) hahaha.

So incredibly excited for their new album on Nov 21!! The first play of their next single coming out in Nov 13 is gonna be on Wednesday!!

Everyday is One Direction day.

... I'm easily the biggest fangirl of them here.

^ That's why I love him!!!! I'll do a Niall picture spam once I get back to my apartment tonight! He has some really good angles and it's never the ones on the album/magazine covers or scans. >.>

Also their new single Gotta be you is going to get first airplay Wednesday morning at 8:00 - 8:30 ish UK time.

The full lyrics were just released:

Spoiler:
Girl I see it in your eyes you’re disappointed
‘Cause I’m the foolish one that you anointed with your heart
I tore it apart
And girl what a mess I made upon your innocence
And no woman in the world deserves this
But here I am asking you for one more chance


Can we fall, one more time?
Stop the tape and rewind
Oh and if you walk away I know I’ll fade
‘Cause there is nobody else


It’s gotta be you
Only you
It’s gotta be you
Only you


Now girl I hear it in your voice and how it trembles
When you speak to me I don’t resemble, who I was
You’ve almost had enough
And your actions speak louder than words
And you’re about to break from all you’ve heard
Don’t be scared, I ain’t going no where


I’ll be here, by your side
No more fears, no more crying
But if you walk away
I know I’ll fade
Cause there is nobody else


CHORUS


Oh girl, can we try one more, one more time?
One more, one more, can we try?
One more, one more time
I’ll make it better
One more, one more, can we try?
One more, one more,
Can we try one more time to make it all better?


Cos its gotta be you
Its gotta be you
Only you
Only you


CHORUS


I'm hoping to hear lots of Niall singing.

And here are all the special album slip cases for each individual member (so you'll buy 5 copies of the album...)

Niall: http://twitpic.com/728yis
Liam: http://twitpic.com/728ycq
Louis: http://twitpic.com/728y3w

^ Thanks!! Just trying to get the message out there you know. I love Liam too!! I think Liam and Niall have the cutest bromance... although Harry and Niall are close behind.

I'm staying up tonight to listen to the first airplay.

Haha, Liam is from my hometown of Wolverhampton and he went to the same school I went too, he was a few years lower than me, but my Sisters know him. I used to see him down the chip shop sometimes in the evening. Who knew he'd become a star?

I hope these boys do well. I'm not really a fan of them and they're music is okay to me but it's actually nice to have something good from my hometown for once. XD

jeez, it's like they chose the worst possible photos of all five guys. they're all attractive, but it's hard to tell from those covers.

edit: a preview of the single and its b-side have been uploaded to Amazon UK. the single sounds good, but the b-side sounds absolutely amazing!

They're just terrible at choosing photos for covers!!! There are sooo many candids that are better.

I heard the previews!!! I hear Niall at the end of 'Another World' the b-side... so excited!!!! The a-side Gotta be you has yet to impress me though, we'll see. I was expecting a much sadder, emotional/desperate kind of ballad considering the lyrics. Just imagine them wailing out ONLY YOUUUU with a sad face.

But it sounds a lot lighter.

Okay here's my Niall pic dump. LOTS of images, gifs and jpegs. Mostly taken from tumblr and twitter.

Spoiler:















Spoiler:


This one's my fave right now. Taken Yesterday while Niall was shopping for new shoes.














Spoiler:


This one's the best gif:














Spoiler:












Split it up to make it hopefully load faster.

... I'm just a huge Niall fan.

I'm sad there's still no Niall... but I heard he's gonna be the lead singer in the b-side 'Another World' so I'm looking forward to that.

The b-side is gonna receive first airplay near the end of October apparently. Can't wait!

Ok... I'm the only one on this thread.

But the Up All Night album previews came out last night/this morning

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dinFBiru9Bc



It's really really good! Will sell a lot for sure. Save You Tonight is my current fave, catchy as hell.
