Members Cheap21 Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 I saw these kids perform on SNL this past weekend and Im hooked. Anyone heard of them before? Any listeners? I know Im too old to be into them but they can really sing and they're adorable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJO3ROT-A4E&ob=av2e http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1xs_xPb46M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 You're kidding with this right? LOL! They finished in 3rd place during the 2010 season of UK X-Factor. They were artificially assembled to be a group on the show. Strangely, their album has gone to #1 in the US and Australia, but has only peaked at #2 in their native UK and Ireland. Their fans are some of the most annoying and insane I've seen on some forums, but I guess that's tween girls for you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 I think they're adorable. During X Factor I hated them since they didn't sing well and mostly let the backing vocalists drown their voices out. It was very contrived, but I did enjoy Zayn who was pretty adorable. I remember he had a big breakdown during the dance section of boot camp and threatened to quit since he can't dance. I only started to like them when they released their cd in the Uk, which is pretty good. Gotta Be You is just flawless to be and cemented my status as a One Direction fan. I plan on going to their concert in Dallas at the end of June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 11, 2012 No! I never heard of them till this Saturday and I loved their 2 performances. Are they supposed to be big? I had no idea they even existed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Becki Posted April 11, 2012 Members Share Posted April 11, 2012 Two of my nieces adore them, but I had no idea who they were. I can't cast stones...I LOVED the Backstreet Boys and I was (and am) waaay past the median age for their fanbase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted April 11, 2012 Members Share Posted April 11, 2012 +1 OMG they're freaking psycho's and I mean that literally. 1D is getting a show on Nickelodeon and apparantly their boys are too good for a "kids network" and they don't want the fanbase overrun by kids LMFAO that is seriously some of the things they've said. Never mind the fact that their fanbase is tween girls, which are not much of a step up from kids I don't even consider them fans, cause most fans want their fav performers to succeed, most 1D fans don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted April 12, 2012 Members Share Posted April 12, 2012 I don't really care about them, but Zayn is the only attractive one to me. Their fans on twitter are REALLY annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 13, 2012 I had to look him up as I dont know their names but Id agree. He is the best looking of them all, although the one in the purple pants (in the post I put above) is kinda cute as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted April 15, 2012 Members Share Posted April 15, 2012 I kinda like "One Thing" Kinda reminds me of the music I grew up with in the late 90s. The boy band craze, teen pop, etc. Like Hanson, BSB, and N' Sync. Brings me back to a more carefree time for myself. Before 9/11 and high school.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 15, 2012 Members Share Posted April 15, 2012 Unlike the manufactured boybands of the past, it's pretty hilarious how this one can't dance and make fun of themselves for not being able to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted October 13, 2012 Members Share Posted October 13, 2012 Wow. I didn't even remember commenting on this. They use to get on my nerves but love them now esppecially Zayn I love them and have no shame. They have an album coming out soon. Ok now.... try not to laugh: Secretly hoping for Zayn to come out of the closet http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbPED9bisSc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted October 13, 2012 Author Members Share Posted October 13, 2012 I didnt even know they were coming out with a new album till this week. Their first album is on heavy rotation in my iPhone. Zayn is definetly the cutest, followed by Liam and Harry in an odd way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted October 13, 2012 Members Share Posted October 13, 2012 Ugh. My job plays One Thing, I Wish, What Makes You Beautiful, and I Want constantly, and I guess I sorta became a fan. I'm still an extremely pressed BTR fan who is jealous of 1D's success, but I can admit that I like 1D as well. Harry's hair looks like sh!t.
