All Penny is saying that in this instance, Harry said something taken out of context.

So many people forget that fame isn't black and white. It's rarely that you're known for something meaningful these days (MJ/Whitney/Aretha/Beatles/Valens/SelenaQuintanilla) are examples of this. Particularly this kind of fame is derived from reputation and historical significance. People KNOW who the important figures are (based on what is discussed; historical, musically, etc).

The kind of fame I'm assuming Harry is talking about is born from media frenzy and social media being more dominant in this technological age. Which is true in that 1D has became more famous faster than the Beatles did (in the same number of years). Overall, Beatles are more well known and appreciated for their cultural contributions (the 60s political message is one of these). Which is what Harry said really. 1D may never truly have that sort of impact but they carved themselves a spot in modern pop music however brief a paragraph.

He still comes off as arrogant tho.

Beatlemania was bigger even if we forget about their cultural and musical impact.

I think the people that say 1D is bigger do it out of a) delusion or b) ignorance of the past.

Eh, people showed King Liam no mercy so I'm glad the same is happening with Harold

This. Liam was actually naive and his tweet was taken out of context. Both were ignorant in their own retrospect so that's the only similar part.

I may or not be drunk right now, anyway I cannot resist this opportunity to quote certain idiots when the whole Liam thing happened:

"He's a dumbass"
"His idiocy will be the end of 1D."
"1D is now holding open auditions for a 5th member."
"Hight over 5'11 are required. Mediocre singing voice is also required."
"He's an embarrassment to 1D and directioners all over the world."

"He's so stupid and uneducated. Wtf was he thinking??"

Karma is a bitch!!

People in here said that?

hi

[dirrtydiana]

Now that that is out of my system I will demonstrate that I am above of those I mentioned and take the high road and stand up for harreh just like I would for any of the boys.

I believe he didn't mean this in an arrogant way. In a way, 1D did reach an explosive amount of fame due to the internet which the Beatles didn't have (or need). To a certain extent, it is possible (I'm not saying it has happened) that 1Ds fame has been able to be reached by everyone who has access to the internet. Which is a lot of people.

Certain people that post here did in another place when in here they were posting more subtle things.

I am deceased if those are actual quotes

[Wafflecakes]

THANK YOU!!


I was so disgusted reading these posts typed by people who were once my friends. I BET that right now that they are defending harry saying he can't do no wrong (like bieber fans) and that Liam is a homophobic douche that needs to diaf

Their HATE for king L is obsessive and scary.

The rampage he went on was idiotic but that is besides the point. We're comparing his first misconstrued tweet to the LIE that harry spilled.

Sorry but I mean your grudge that you went and bookmarked those quotes. I didn't shade Liam too badly in that thread or in here but I did say some really mean things on SYG. Looking back on it I do feel bad about what I said about him, I was just paranoid that it was gonna reflect badly on them, but from what I can see not that many people cared outside ATRL..

I also think it's silly that you would stop being friends with someone because of what they said about Liam that day, but hey it's up to you who you want to befriend..

Sis I didn't bookmark these. My selective memory is just that good. And those weren't even half of what I saw.

I wasn't quoting you, but if the shoe fits. What can I do?

That whole post involves other sad people who I had problems with before joining ATRL if I make myself clear.

Anyway. Enough about me and this over used topic. Let's get back to harreh tho.

I can understand if you're still mad about it, the Liam dragging was insane, like the worst we've had in ATRL recently, after ARTPOP underperforming and Bieber going to jail..

Harry's lucky most of the ATLR crowd doesn't really care about the Beatles, imagine if he had said it about someone with stans on here

[mariahcarey]

They are deffo not bigger than the Beatles!

I've finally got a new laptop that's fixed! So now I have been downloading music for the past 100 years. While I'm at it... does anyone have a good album I should listen to?
