OMG! TICKETS FOR ONE DIRECTION’SWHERE WE ARETOUR SOLD OUT IN FIVE MINUTES! IT’S HARD to imagine a world without One Direction. A world without the “Best Song Ever” video, where you could walk into a shop without hearing “Story of My Life” on the radio or see a rack of CDs that doesn’t include their music? But although we wouldn’t want to try to live without them now, One Direction would never have existed if it weren’t for the 2010 UK series of The X Factor. That year saw the seventh series of The X Factor in the UK, and Niall, Zayn, Liam, Harry and Louis all entered individually. Although not all of the judges were initially convinced by the boys – boo! – all five got through their first…

NOV 2012 ONE DIRECTION’S SECOND ALBUM WAS EVEN BETTER THAN THE FIRST! ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE RELEASE OF THE WONDERFUL UP ALL NIGHT, 1D REVEALED THAT THEY WERE WORKING ON THEIR SECOND ALBUM. BY MARCH 2012, MUSICIANS SUCH AS TOM FLETCHER AND ED SHEERAN WERE ALREADY TALKING ABOUT CONTRIBUTING TO THE NEW ALBUM. ONCE AGAIN, SWEDISH WRITERS AND PRODUCERS WERE ON BOARD: SAVAN KOTECHA, CARL FALK AND RAMI YACOUB SPENT SIX MONTHS WORKING ON SONGS. THE IDEA BEHIND THE SOUND WAS TO MAKE IT SIMPLE AND ACCESSIBLE, SO YOUNG FANS COULD PERFORM COVERS, BUT THAT TOOK A LOT OF WORK!

THE X FACTOR TOUR 2011 The first time One Direction went on the road, they didn’t go by themselves. Straight after The X Factor finished, they went on tour with other contestants, who included Matt Cardle, Wagner and Cher Lloyd. This was way before they’d even recorded an album, so they were just singing the covers that they’d performed on The X Factor. Still, it was an early chance for fans to see the boys in the flesh!

I T MUST be great being a pop star and having loads of money. You could buy pretty much anything you wanted, whenever you wanted, whether that’s a new house like Harry or some replacement bedroom curtains like Liam! But as the old saying goes, it’s better to give than to receive, and apparently One Direction are on board with that, because they’ve done loads of things for charity! Here are just some of the appeals the boys have supported . . . OMG!ONE DIRECTION WERE NAMED ONE OF THE 20 MOST CHARITABLE STARS IN THE WORLD LAST YEAR! COMIC RELIEF To support anti-poverty charity Comic Relief in 2013, One Direction recorded a mash-up of Blondie’s “One Way Or Another” and The Undertones’ “Teenage Kicks”. All the royalties from the…

WHAT MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL First release: 11 September 2011 RUNNING TIME: 3 MINUTES 18 SECONDS It took nine months from One Direction leaving The X Factor final in third place to them releasing any music, but what an amazing way to start! “What Makes You Beautiful” was written for the boys by Savan Kotecha, Rami Yacoub and Carl Falk, and recorded in Stockholm, Sweden. It’s the kind of pop song that makes you want to sing along immediately, with its insistent chorus that gets stuck in your head forever. The opening riff kind of sounds like the beginning of “Summer Nights” from the soundtrack Grease, too, which doesn’t hurt! The song was played on Radio 1 in England a month before it was released, and by the time it was…

NOV 2013 THE BOYS’ THIRD ALBUM SHOW CASED A SLIGHTLY MORE GROWN-UP 1D–AND IT’S AWESOME! MIDNIGHT MEMORIES WAS RELEASED JUST OVER A YEAR AFTER TAKE ME HOME. BY THEIR THIRD ALBUM, MOST BOYBANDS WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THEY’RE PROPERLY TALENTED AND CAN DO MORE THAN SWEET POP SONGS FOR TEENAGE GIRLS. AND IF YOU SQUINT, YOU CAN SEE A BIT OF THAT IN MIDNIGHT MEMORIES. IT’S DEFINITELY MORE ROCK INFLUENCED, AND SOME OF THE LYRICS ARE MORE ADULT TOO. BUT IT’S ALSO CLEAR THAT 1D ARE STILL HAVING LOTS OF FUN, AND THERE’S NO SIGN THAT THEY DON’T WANT TO BE DOING THIS ANY MORE. IN FACT, THEY’RE SO GOOD AT THIS POP STAR LARK THEY’LL HOPEFULLY BE DOING IT FOREVER! TRACKLIST • BEST SONG EVER • STORY…

IT WAS THE “FIRST ALBUM WE’VE PROPERLY WRITTEN ON NEARLY EVERY SONG’’, LIAM SAID DURING A RADIO INTERVIEW.

AFTER a musical career as amazing as theirs, where could One Direction possibly go next? Well, they’re definitely going to be busy for the next year or so. At the time of writing, the boys were just starting the On the Road Again tour, so they’ll be doing a lot of travelling and performing until the end of October. They’ll be playing massive stadiums almost every night, singing to millions of adoring fans, and hopefully having a brilliant time while they do it. And there’s future music to look forward to as well. They were recently asked in an Instagram video if they’ll be releasing a fifth album and they confirmed they would! “We’re just so happy that our new album (Four) has gone really well for us and it’s…
