lol honestly I think Rock Me would do well on Itunes and have a hit music video...... but I see it flopping on radio.
Radio really in important. I really think they need to release a song with a similar tempo to WMYB. The radio stations in my area STILL play that song regularly.
I'm seething that the holy trinity of One Direction ("They Don't Know About Us", "Moments", "Stole My Heart") ended up being paid nothing but dust. I wasn't expecting SMH, so that doesn't bother me too much. But the other two? The disappointment.
I'm glad that "She's Not Afraid" was included, though.
Would he say he’s in L-O-V-E?
Well, if it was me then I would! I WOULD!
Would he hold you when you’re feeling low?
Baby, you should know that I would! I WOULD!
With the tour I think Take Me Home can become their first album to go 2xplatinum and sell 5 million worldwide. So far:
US: 1,530,494
WW: 3,831,000
Seeing these stats just makes me laugh, really. We all know ATRL is egocentric, boasting their fave girl's sales to everyone as if they were their own. But One Direction are looked down upon here, because they're males, let's be real.
Yet, here are One Direction selling so much better than the other girls. They all sell about 3-4M when things are said and done, and 1D are nearly at 4M WW after simply three months.
I used to be the same and discredit them until I listen to their album
and found it to be a good solid pop album
While the whole "tween" demographic plays a part, you can still see the huge amount of disney stans on this board for female artists. Demi, Miley, and Selena stans are a very common occurrence on this site and they appeal to the same demo. So I still think it comes down to the fact they're males more than anything.
I was exactly the same. I couldn't get "One Thing" out of my head when it was released and decided to listen to the full Up All Night album. From there on out, I've always been in 1D's corner. People don't realise that they make really solid pop music because they're too caught up in their own preconceived ideas of a boy band.

Poor Guys. They're paid dust on ATRL.
I think we're the biggest stanbase for any guys on here tbh.

Even Justin Bieber barely has stans on here.
Biggest and best, really.
Justin doesn't really have too many stans on here because he's a prickdiva. ATRL likes it's divas to be women, in which case they'll be "yasss, queen better draggg!" but for Bieber it's "ew. Grow up. ".
But the double standard against men on this board is borderline atrocious. Pitbull and Flo Rida are constantly shunned while girls such as Havana Brown, Nicki Minaj (strictly talking dance-pop Nicki), and Dev are praised. But oh well, that's ATRL for you.
Bottom line is that One Direction are great and anyone could see that if they look past the whole boy band image. They're just normal dudes living the dream and making great pop music.

What are you talking about? I make sure to rate that album highly because her stans are too lazy to do it themselves (I was about to take that one step further but I'll stop here. )

The girls are very aware their faves can't outsell in this day and age 1D, unless they're fave is Taylor Swift. Their coping mechanism is that boybands don't last for too long but I have faith the UK will never disown them They've been loyal to Spice Girls and Take That.
