One Direction’s FOUR turns 12 this November, so Chris and Chantel Nicole are giving it an honest, track by track album review. Released in 2014, FOUR swapped the boy band polish for 70s and 80s arena rock, drawing comparisons to Journey, Bon Jovi, Springsteen and Fleetwood Mac. It debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, making 1D the first group ever to have their first four albums debut at #1 in the US. It was also the last album with Zayn.
We break down the production, vocals, visuals and performances on all 12 standard tracks. That covers Steal My Girl’s very Journey-sounding piano and its chaotic music video, Ready to Run on SNL, Where Do Broken Hearts Go with Ronnie Wood, the Ed Sheeran-penned 18, Night Changes becoming their most streamed song, the fan campaign that pushed No Control onto the tour setlist, and Clouds as a stadium opener. Then we play Cut or Keep and give our final ratings.
Is FOUR the peak of One Direction’s sound, or does the stadium rock pivot lose steam in the back half? As always, it’s an honest, unfiltered take. No hype, no fluff. Viewer discretion is advised. Your fave will be criticized.

00:00:23 --> 00:00:29 And with 4 trying 12 in November of 2026, it is time for us to review One Direction's fourth album.
00:00:30 --> 00:00:38 So 4 came out in November 2014 on Psycho and Columbia Records, and it is their fourth album in four years.
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39 So they were doing a lot.
00:00:40 --> 00:00:44 And if you'd like to hear us talk about those first three albums, those reviews are out.
00:00:44 --> 00:00:45 So check those out.
00:00:46 --> 00:00:46 Yeah.
00:00:47 --> 00:00:56 But yeah, so the sound of four leans into the 70s and 80s arena rock, and critics compared it to Journey, Bryan Adams, Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi, and Fleetwood Mac.
00:00:56 --> 00:01:08 And the album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, selling 387 copies, making One Direction the first group ever to have their first four albums all debut at number one in the U.S.
00:01:08 --> 00:01:13 Yes, and it also hit number one in the UK, the third in a row in 18 countries total.
00:01:14 --> 00:01:19 It was the sixth best-selling album in the world in 2014, with 3.2 million copies sold.
00:01:19 --> 00:01:25 And in 2020, Billboard named it the number one boy band album of the last 30 years.
00:01:26 --> 00:01:31 And on December 23rd, 2014, NBC aired One Direction, the TV special.
00:01:31 --> 00:01:36 It showed the guys recording for On the Road, plus a concert at Universal Orlando.
00:01:36 --> 00:01:44 And it ended up being the last album with Zayn, as he would leave the band in March 2015, in the middle of the On the Road Again tour.
00:01:45 --> 00:01:47 So, let's hop into this album, okay guys?
00:01:47 --> 00:01:54 For each song, we're going to dive into the production, the vocals, visuals, and performances, and then drop our individual ratings and direction, or you're free to join us.
00:01:54 --> 00:01:54 Keep it civil.
00:01:55 --> 00:01:55 All right.
00:01:55 --> 00:01:58 We're covering the 12 standard here on the main show.
00:01:58 --> 00:02:01 And then the four deluxe bonus tracks will be exclusive to our Patreon.
00:02:01 --> 00:02:04 So make sure you jump over there after this episode.
00:02:04 --> 00:02:07 But be warned, your discretion is advised.
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09 Your fave will be criticized.
00:02:10 --> 00:02:13 So before we get into the album, let's talk about this album cover.
00:02:13 --> 00:02:16 So we have this kind of double photo shoot situation.
00:02:16 --> 00:02:17 Very casual.
00:02:18 --> 00:02:19 What do you think?
00:02:19 --> 00:02:26 You know, I feel like they've had a vibe on all of their albums, and this one is the least interesting.
00:02:26 --> 00:02:28 I want to be so real with you.
00:02:28 --> 00:02:29 The first album, they look young and fun.
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32 Second, still boys, still having a good time, but older.
00:02:32 --> 00:02:34 Third, we're men.
00:02:34 --> 00:02:35 We're guys.
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37 This one is kind of just like, you caught us backstage, lad.
00:02:37 --> 00:02:39 It's like a photo.
00:02:39 --> 00:02:43 So it doesn't feel like we're four.
00:02:43 --> 00:02:43 Yeah.
00:02:44 --> 00:02:48 It just feels like we're on the fourth album.
00:02:48 --> 00:02:52 It just feels kind of just like, hey guys, you're really busy, let's take a photo real quick.
00:02:52 --> 00:02:54 I'll throw it in Photoshop and we'll throw it on the album.
00:02:55 --> 00:02:56 And I don't care for that.
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58 It's not fair, I think, to the fan visually.
00:02:58 --> 00:03:00 If you guys don't care, go for you what I do.
00:03:00 --> 00:03:02 If I'm just trying to buy an album, I'm like, what are these guys doing here?
00:03:02 --> 00:03:05 It looks like a magazine shoot, like a behind the scenes of a tour.
00:03:06 --> 00:03:06 which is fine.
00:03:07 --> 00:03:10 But I guess that kind of fits their whole, like, stadium thing.
00:03:10 --> 00:03:15 I will say, Niall looks, his jaw is doing things for me.
00:03:15 --> 00:03:19 Listen, I was always a Zane girl, okay?
00:03:19 --> 00:03:20 I was like, oh, who's the one that sounds like R&B?
00:03:21 --> 00:03:24 You know, Niall has grown on me through the past couple of albums, yes.
00:03:25 --> 00:03:31 And we have Patreon conversations with one of our patrons, Hillary, where now I'm looking for Louis a little bit more.
00:03:31 --> 00:03:33 So, again, the Patreon conversations are great.
00:03:33 --> 00:03:35 So, yeah, but, yeah, Niall's looking nice.
00:03:35 --> 00:03:55 everything and you know yeah i mean i think they look good yes they do it is definitely giving rock band backstage right before they go on stage yes kind of thing um which i don't hate i think because that is the sound so if you listen to the album this cover does make sense like the wooden background like all the denim yeah like everything is just i don't know
00:03:56 --> 00:03:57 It makes sense to me.
00:03:57 --> 00:03:58 It does.
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00 I think for me, obviously, I love a traditional boy band.
00:04:01 --> 00:04:01 Yeah.
00:04:01 --> 00:04:01 Right?
00:04:01 --> 00:04:04 So, like, for me, I'm kind of like, oh, this isn't giving boy band.
00:04:04 --> 00:04:05 But they didn't want to be giving boy band.
00:04:05 --> 00:04:06 Right.
00:04:06 --> 00:04:09 So when I just think about the album, I'm actually okay with the cover.
00:04:10 --> 00:04:14 I kind of like that their expressions are kind of all more candid, especially in the second photo.
00:04:15 --> 00:04:20 Because, yeah, it just feels a bit loose, which I think is maybe what they were going for, like less polish.
00:04:20 --> 00:04:21 That makes sense.
00:04:21 --> 00:04:21 Oh, okay.
00:04:21 --> 00:04:22 Yeah.
00:04:22 --> 00:04:22 Hmm.
00:04:23 --> 00:04:46 appreciate that all right guys so we're gonna hop right into it and the first song is steal my girl and it was done by louis liam wayne hector ed drewitt julian venetta and john ryan and this was the lead single released september 29th 2014 and they performed it at today's show's outdoor concert in orlando on album release day and zane did miss that show reportedly because of exhaustion which is
00:04:47 --> 00:05:06 probably was true considering a lot of things now right so Niall still sings a solo including on his 2016 dinner party tour so we do have a lot of moments where the guys do singing which is nines um and it peaked at number three in the UK and well and it peaked at number three in the UK and number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 this was their top
00:05:06 --> 00:05:09 This was their 10th top 10 hit in the UK.
00:05:09 --> 00:05:13 And that piano intro got a lot of comparisons to Journey's Faithfully.
00:05:13 --> 00:05:16 And both Billboard even compared it to Van Halen.
00:05:16 --> 00:05:19 And the music video was directed by Ben and Gabe Turner.
00:05:19 --> 00:05:24 And it stars Danny DeVito as a wacky director who gives each guy a trait.
00:05:24 --> 00:05:25 An emotion.
00:05:25 --> 00:05:26 A feeling, if you will.
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29 So yeah, there was a lot going around in this video.
00:05:29 --> 00:05:32 And our patrons on Patreon have said,
00:05:33 --> 00:05:37 This is so peak 1D when they basically had unlimited music video budget.
00:05:37 --> 00:05:38 It's so chaotic.
00:05:38 --> 00:05:39 And this was by Sarah.
00:05:39 --> 00:05:43 And Hillary said, this is another one that gets annoying after you heard it so many times.
00:05:43 --> 00:05:44 Uh-huh.
00:05:50 --> 00:05:55 Again, we love this conversation because one person's like, oh, my God, this is like a moment.
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56 Another person's like, listen, I'm over it.
00:05:57 --> 00:05:57 We're here for that.
00:05:57 --> 00:05:58 Right.
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00 So how do we feel about it, though?
00:06:00 --> 00:06:01 Interesting.
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02 I heard the journey.
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04 I was like, is this faithfully?
00:06:04 --> 00:06:05 Oh, that's faithfully.
00:06:05 --> 00:06:06 Oh, come on.
00:06:06 --> 00:06:06 Come on.
00:06:06 --> 00:06:08 So I have feelings about the song.
00:06:09 --> 00:06:09 I think it's very sweet.
00:06:10 --> 00:06:10 I like the sentiment.
00:06:10 --> 00:06:14 I will be honest, this is not my favorite One Direction song.
00:06:15 --> 00:06:17 I will say I appreciate the 80s rock influence, though.
00:06:17 --> 00:06:18 And it does make sense for them.
00:06:19 --> 00:06:20 This is where their sound was going.
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23 They were kind of already doing the stadium rock thing before.
00:06:24 --> 00:06:25 And so I get it.
00:06:25 --> 00:06:25 But...
00:06:29 --> 00:06:33 I just don't think it's actually as good as some of those 80s rock bands in this case.
00:06:34 --> 00:06:34 Yeah.
00:06:34 --> 00:06:38 You know, like it feels a little derivative, to be very honest.
00:06:38 --> 00:06:42 And I think also just like lyrically, it just feels a little pantering at this point.
00:06:44 --> 00:06:45 Yes.
00:06:48 --> 00:06:51 My notes completely kind of like concur.
00:06:51 --> 00:06:51 Yeah.
00:06:51 --> 00:06:52 Like it's catchy.
00:06:52 --> 00:06:53 It's memorable.
00:06:53 --> 00:06:54 I get it.
00:06:54 --> 00:06:58 Like this kind of, there's a lot of parasocial relationships happening.
00:06:58 --> 00:07:02 And like, I'm sure like this idealistic kind of mind of this guy.
00:07:03 --> 00:07:04 Like, yeah, I know.
00:07:04 --> 00:07:05 I know.
00:07:05 --> 00:07:05 Yeah.
00:07:05 --> 00:07:05 I get it.
00:07:06 --> 00:07:06 I get it.
00:07:06 --> 00:07:06 Yeah.
00:07:07 --> 00:07:32 But yeah, I'm going to be honest Not my favorite One Direction single The vocal production though is good It's very pop It has that kind of layering Which kind of sets it apart From kind of the 80s rock thing So it's not as raw Yeah As some of that So they at least balance that well I think that pre-chorus Niles pre-chorus Is probably my favorite part of the song But yeah, I'm going to be honest I don't love it
00:07:35 --> 00:07:35 And that's totally fine.
00:07:36 --> 00:07:37 I know, I know, I know.
00:07:38 --> 00:07:39 The pitch is simple.
00:07:39 --> 00:07:43 You know, this guy, he's in with her sister with 16.
00:07:43 --> 00:07:45 Her parents have already adopted him.
00:07:45 --> 00:07:47 And the rest of the planet is a threat.
00:07:49 --> 00:07:51 I literally hear the journey thing.
00:07:51 --> 00:07:51 I get it.
00:07:51 --> 00:07:59 It's just like, but again, when you're dealing with something that is Steve Perry journey, like it got to be really good.
00:07:59 --> 00:08:01 But yeah, the chords of the piano is what sounds like it.
00:08:01 --> 00:08:03 If you're like, I don't know what you're talking about.
00:08:11 --> 00:08:38 like yeah the lyrics definitely read as golden retriever boyfriend taking on like the touch or die personality of like romance novels so i think i get it like it's super tropey and it's definitely fantastically written in a sense of like it's a fantasy like a y-n fantasy um the whole she even my queen since 16 drop jaws drop when she's in those jeans and then he says something along the lines of when they uh say i don't exist without her like that is just more like
00:08:39 --> 00:08:42 fan fiction, like, romance YA novel.
00:08:42 --> 00:08:45 And right now, like, a dark romance novel.
00:08:45 --> 00:08:47 It's like, you touch her, you do it, you know?
00:08:48 --> 00:08:50 But, yeah, are there guys out there that think like this?
00:08:50 --> 00:08:51 Yeah, sure, I guess.
00:08:51 --> 00:08:54 Rare, but believable, even if it's not true.
00:08:54 --> 00:09:00 Like, the song makes you believe that there is true love out there for you, and the song makes you feel like a special young lady, period.
00:09:00 --> 00:09:02 Like, however, the whole...
00:09:02 --> 00:09:04 She belongs to me.
00:09:04 --> 00:09:05 We need sheep.
00:09:05 --> 00:09:08 It has aged as well as an avocado.
00:09:08 --> 00:09:13 Because it's like, jealousy is sweet on the surface, but it's possessive if you squint hard enough.
00:09:13 --> 00:09:13 We need to have a long view.
00:09:14 --> 00:09:14 But I get it.
00:09:15 --> 00:09:15 I get it.
00:09:15 --> 00:09:18 What do you mean?
00:09:19 --> 00:09:20 But I do appreciate it.
00:09:20 --> 00:09:21 Because if I was like,
00:09:22 --> 00:09:24 I wasn't a fan of them when I was younger, but I did hear them.
00:09:24 --> 00:09:25 Yeah.
00:09:25 --> 00:09:26 Because I was into K-pop at the time.
00:09:26 --> 00:09:30 But looking back on it, to be chosen, pick me, choose me.
00:09:30 --> 00:09:31 The song does that for you.
00:09:31 --> 00:09:31 Yeah.
00:09:31 --> 00:09:32 You know?
00:09:32 --> 00:09:32 Right.
00:09:32 --> 00:09:33 It's comforting.
00:09:33 --> 00:09:34 Totally.
00:09:34 --> 00:09:36 I do, however, appreciate the music video.
00:09:36 --> 00:09:37 But it was so silly.
00:09:38 --> 00:09:40 So silly, very entertaining to watch.
00:09:40 --> 00:09:41 I do think it's among their best.
00:09:42 --> 00:09:47 Robert De Niro was a perfect choice to be that wacky director.
00:09:47 --> 00:09:49 And yeah, the whole thing is just so random.
00:09:49 --> 00:09:51 Do you have a favorite scene?
00:09:51 --> 00:09:52 I feel it.
00:09:52 --> 00:09:53 I'm not gonna lie.
00:09:53 --> 00:09:56 Now, he is so heartwarming to me.
00:09:56 --> 00:09:57 Like, what is he wearing?
00:09:57 --> 00:09:58 What is he doing?
00:09:58 --> 00:09:58 I was...
00:09:58 --> 00:10:00 The tribe of sorks.
00:10:02 --> 00:10:03 I think he's just there.
00:10:03 --> 00:10:04 I think it's adorable.
00:10:04 --> 00:10:04 Yeah.
00:10:05 --> 00:10:08 I do appreciate, like, the British pop music videos.
00:10:08 --> 00:10:11 Because even with Flo now, like, don't break her heart.
00:10:12 --> 00:10:12 It's funny.
00:10:12 --> 00:10:13 Like, there's salutes.
00:10:13 --> 00:10:18 Like, there's something so charming about the British sensibility.
00:10:18 --> 00:10:18 Yeah.
00:10:18 --> 00:10:20 So when I watch the video, I'm like, oh, that's really cute.
00:10:20 --> 00:10:21 We're here in America.
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22 It's like, it's so serious.
00:10:22 --> 00:10:23 I'm sick.
00:10:23 --> 00:10:24 And I'm like, okay, whatever.
00:10:24 --> 00:10:30 Because they could have had a moment where it's like they're with this one girl, they're all singing her and it's like, completely random.
00:10:30 --> 00:10:33 It felt like a flash mob, like a cry down flash mob.
00:10:33 --> 00:10:34 And I'm so here for it.
00:10:34 --> 00:10:35 Yeah, you know, I appreciate it.
00:10:35 --> 00:10:42 And it was like a whole like throughout the day kind of vibe and it climax even though I don't know how you climax on chaos, but you did.
00:10:43 --> 00:10:44 Yeah, so I was here for it.
00:10:44 --> 00:10:45 Yeah, I'm here for it.
00:10:45 --> 00:10:46 I loved every scene.
00:10:46 --> 00:10:49 Like, I think Zayn with the Sumo wrestlers is very funny.
00:10:49 --> 00:10:49 Really?
00:10:50 --> 00:10:53 You can see how he's kind of uncomfortable about it, too, which is even funnier.
00:10:54 --> 00:10:56 Love, Louie, with the monkey.
00:10:56 --> 00:10:57 Like, yeah, the whole thing is great.
00:10:58 --> 00:11:01 So, yeah, the music video, perfect, I would say.
00:11:02 --> 00:11:04 So, yeah, what do you rate this song?
00:11:05 --> 00:11:10 Um, I gave it a little bit of a higher score at first, but listening to you, I get the sentiment.
00:11:10 --> 00:11:11 Sorry.
00:11:11 --> 00:11:11 No.
00:11:12 --> 00:11:15 So I think it's okay if I'm presented with information that just resonates.
00:11:15 --> 00:11:18 I'm like, okay, I'm willing to be like, okay, I can alter a bit.
00:11:18 --> 00:11:19 I don't hate the song.
00:11:19 --> 00:11:21 I do like, I think it was right for the time.
00:11:21 --> 00:11:25 And also the video reminds me of Take That Circus Tour, but just like less circus.
00:11:25 --> 00:11:27 It's just more, yeah, crazy.
00:11:27 --> 00:11:30 So that being said, I will give it an eight.
00:11:30 --> 00:11:31 That's great.
00:11:31 --> 00:11:31 Okay.
00:11:31 --> 00:11:31 Okay.
00:11:32 --> 00:11:32 It's not bad.
00:11:32 --> 00:11:34 I definitely think there's better on the album.
00:11:34 --> 00:11:35 I'll start at a seven.
00:11:36 --> 00:11:42 Next up is Ready to Run, done by Louis, Liam, Jamie Scott, Julian Bonetta, and John Ryan.
00:11:42 --> 00:11:47 And this came out on November 6, 2014 as an instant download for anyone who pre-ordered the album.
00:11:47 --> 00:11:50 And it was the first of five songs released that way before the album dropped.
00:11:51 --> 00:11:53 And they did perform it on Saturday Night Live.
00:11:53 --> 00:11:54 Yeah.
00:11:54 --> 00:11:55 Wow.
00:11:55 --> 00:11:57 I was not watching Saturday Night Live as a kid.
00:11:57 --> 00:11:57 I was a lurker.
00:11:58 --> 00:12:02 This time I'm ready to run.
00:12:02 --> 00:12:03 Escape from the...
00:12:03 --> 00:12:06 This is folksy, big pop burst.
00:12:07 --> 00:12:13 The verses add drama, a lightning in her eyes, and him a sinking boat running out of time.
00:12:13 --> 00:12:16 That's... One's a weather system, another one's a maritime disaster.
00:12:16 --> 00:12:17 It's all these first two rhymes.
00:12:18 --> 00:12:18 It's interesting.
00:12:18 --> 00:12:19 Like, are they the best fit?
00:12:20 --> 00:12:21 Maybe not.
00:12:21 --> 00:12:21 But...
00:12:22 --> 00:12:25 but he believes that with her he can escape the dark of the night.
00:12:26 --> 00:12:30 He's saying, I'm imperfect, but I can course correct for the right person, and you're that.
00:12:31 --> 00:12:35 I don't know how I feel about that, because I'm like, I'm not trying to be the... You need to live for you, but go off.
00:12:36 --> 00:12:39 The song is a wee, a wee bit contradictory in the lyrics.
00:12:39 --> 00:12:41 Like, I want to be free, like, in the relationship.
00:12:41 --> 00:12:42 I'm ready to run.
00:12:42 --> 00:12:42 Where?
00:12:43 --> 00:12:44 I guess into my arms.
00:12:44 --> 00:12:44 Yeah, with.
00:12:45 --> 00:12:45 Right, with.
00:12:46 --> 00:12:46 Right, with me.
00:12:46 --> 00:12:46 Not from.
00:12:46 --> 00:12:47 Right.
00:12:50 --> 00:12:50 I'm totally teasing.
00:12:50 --> 00:12:54 It's not confusing, but it's just so funny because it's like, I want to be free.
00:12:54 --> 00:12:55 Free to be who?
00:12:55 --> 00:12:56 Free to be what?
00:12:56 --> 00:13:00 Because you said you, I guess he was a hot mess, but she kind of provides guidance like a North Star.
00:13:00 --> 00:13:01 So I thought that was kind of sweet.
00:13:03 --> 00:13:06 But yeah, I mean, there's something, who doesn't want to hear that from their crush?
00:13:06 --> 00:13:07 Like, I have been a hot mess.
00:13:08 --> 00:13:08 I just want to be hot.
00:13:09 --> 00:13:34 for you with you you know not the mess part uh and then the second verse is a highlight tonally i feel like because louis and nile i can hear you i can hear you um and their tones fit the acoustic spirit of the song and yeah i'm here for it and also the live performances is just all i think of is thick heads of hair with a lot of hair yeah a lot of a lot of volume yeah
00:13:35 --> 00:13:35 Yes.
00:13:36 --> 00:13:37 So I like this song so much more.
00:13:37 --> 00:13:42 Yeah, then I think this actually could have been a lead single potentially, actually.
00:13:42 --> 00:13:44 Because yeah, I think they all sound great on here.
00:13:45 --> 00:13:46 You mentioned the second verse.
00:13:46 --> 00:13:47 I love the first verse too.
00:13:47 --> 00:13:50 Like Harry and Liam, they balance each other so well.
00:13:51 --> 00:13:54 And then yeah, with Nile and Louis, it gets a bit more delicate as well.
00:13:54 --> 00:13:58 And then you know Zane's then gonna kind of take it home with the ad-libs and the bridge and everything.
00:13:59 --> 00:14:01 But yeah, I actually really like the chorus to it.
00:14:01 --> 00:14:02 There's a drive to it.
00:14:02 --> 00:14:04 I enjoy the structure of it and the melody of it.
00:14:04 --> 00:14:10 I like the, uh, as well, because it's like made for the fans to do, because they don't do it, right?
00:14:10 --> 00:14:12 It's made for them to do, which I appreciate.
00:14:13 --> 00:14:16 So yeah, much stronger to me than Seal My Girl.
00:14:17 --> 00:14:22 And I'm glad it at least kind of got this moment on SNL, because I kind of liked the way that they did it.
00:14:22 --> 00:14:27 They seem sober on the note, which is crazy, because we only reviewed the first album like last year.
00:14:28 --> 00:14:30 It's like, whoa, it's like we're seeing them.
00:14:30 --> 00:14:33 Yeah, it's happening very fast as we watch them.
00:14:33 --> 00:14:36 Yeah, like the harmonies are really strong on that performance.
00:14:37 --> 00:14:43 I liked this kind of folksy, kind of campfire-ish kind of vibe that they were giving as well.
00:14:43 --> 00:14:45 So yeah, this one's a highlight for me on this album, I think.
00:14:46 --> 00:14:46 Yes.
00:14:47 --> 00:14:48 I'm ready to score.
00:14:48 --> 00:14:50 Yeah, I'm giving it a nine.
00:14:50 --> 00:14:50 I like this one.
00:14:50 --> 00:14:51 Yes.
00:14:51 --> 00:14:52 I also have it as a nine.
00:14:53 --> 00:14:53 Yes.
00:14:54 --> 00:15:01 Up next is Where Do Broken Hearts Goes, and this was done by Harry, Julian Benetta, Ruthanne Cunningham, Teddy Geiger, and Ali Tempozy.
00:15:02 --> 00:15:06 And this was another pre-order instant download release November 10th, 2014.
00:15:06 --> 00:15:13 And it was never an official single, but it still charted at number 47 in the UK and number 88 on the Hot 100.
00:15:15 --> 00:15:22 Niles said it was one of his favorites to play on the Road Again tour, and Louis has been performing it quite a lot on his own as well.
00:15:22 --> 00:15:31 And the performance that, you know, they did was the X-Factor UK final on December 14th, 2014, with Rhyming Blood from the Rolling Stones on guitar.
00:15:31 --> 00:15:33 So this is an iconic song.
00:15:39 --> 00:15:41 I mean, that's insane to perform with Ronnie Wood.
00:15:41 --> 00:15:42 Aww.
00:15:42 --> 00:15:47 And it was a great choice for him as well, because there is at least some guitar, you know, in there.
00:15:48 --> 00:15:49 Obviously, he did more than one song recording.
00:15:50 --> 00:15:52 But yeah, I like this one.
00:15:52 --> 00:15:54 I appreciate the drama and the production.
00:15:54 --> 00:15:55 There's a lot of energy to it.
00:15:55 --> 00:15:57 There's a ton of tension building in the verses.
00:15:58 --> 00:16:00 And the band arrangement, like, it's already a live arrangement.
00:16:00 --> 00:16:01 Yeah.
00:16:01 --> 00:16:03 Yeah, which is kind of like, okay, I get it.
00:16:03 --> 00:16:05 Like this whole stadium rock kind of thing.
00:16:05 --> 00:16:10 I will say vocally, I am quite impressed throughout everything.
00:16:10 --> 00:16:16 Like they've really settled into both their kind of solo tones as well as the blend within the group.
00:16:16 --> 00:16:18 Like it all feels very effortless.
00:16:18 --> 00:16:19 Yes.
00:16:19 --> 00:16:20 Just awesome.
00:16:20 --> 00:16:22 So yeah, I think this has single potential too.
00:16:22 --> 00:16:26 This could have also been the lead single more than Steal My Girl, sorry.
00:16:28 --> 00:16:32 No, it's true, because after a while, it does feel like, okay, why are you singing about this woman again?
00:16:32 --> 00:16:33 We get it.
00:16:33 --> 00:16:34 We get it.
00:16:34 --> 00:16:35 Give me something else.
00:16:35 --> 00:16:35 I get it.
00:16:36 --> 00:16:40 And this does the 80s rock thing, but it at least feels a little more modern.
00:16:40 --> 00:16:41 I don't know.
00:16:41 --> 00:16:42 There's something about, I don't know.
00:16:42 --> 00:16:44 There's something at least kind of more unique about it.
00:16:44 --> 00:16:46 It doesn't feel as derivative, but.
00:16:46 --> 00:16:49 It also doesn't feel like our, like our, hey, this is gonna get the girls.
00:16:49 --> 00:16:51 It doesn't feel like our gonna grab us, like, purposely.
00:16:51 --> 00:16:54 No, because cash grab is not the word I want to use for that.
00:16:54 --> 00:16:57 But barring a title from Whitney Houston is no small deal.
00:16:58 --> 00:16:58 Okay.
00:16:58 --> 00:17:02 But this track kicks up the concept with the stadium pop twist.
00:17:02 --> 00:17:06 And now we have, like, a new generation, I guess, to introduce to an emotional map.
00:17:06 --> 00:17:07 It's like, where do the broken hearts go?
00:17:07 --> 00:17:08 I feel like...
00:17:08 --> 00:17:13 Like every so every so often is a pop song that really talks about like, oh, my God, I broke your heart.
00:17:13 --> 00:17:14 Where those hearts go?
00:17:14 --> 00:17:16 Like, where do they go to the club now?
00:17:16 --> 00:17:18 Shoot, all of us going to the club.
00:17:18 --> 00:17:21 But the point is, this emotional track is about like leading you back to your love.
00:17:21 --> 00:17:22 And Niall is leading.
00:17:23 --> 00:17:24 Liam on second verses.
00:17:24 --> 00:17:26 They all sound great and bring like this boy's sadness.
00:17:27 --> 00:17:30 So when then Harry and Zayn comes in, it feels extremely desperate.
00:17:30 --> 00:17:31 I'm like, yeah.
00:17:32 --> 00:17:33 You want me back.
00:17:33 --> 00:17:39 Oh, I think lyrically this is interesting because right off the bat you hear this laundry list of mistakes that they've made.
00:17:39 --> 00:17:40 And I'm like, wow.
00:17:41 --> 00:17:42 You kind of suck, huh?
00:17:42 --> 00:17:50 Like I just, I always think it's so funny how like, so I did this and I did that and I broke your heart and like, dang, I, dang.
00:17:51 --> 00:17:53 It's like, what are you gonna do to fix it?
00:17:53 --> 00:17:54 Not just that you want me back.
00:17:54 --> 00:18:00 I think that was kind of what was missing for me lyrically because I liked that little bit of progression as opposed to, I messed up.
00:18:00 --> 00:18:02 Okay, but what are you gonna do?
00:18:02 --> 00:18:03 He's okay.
00:18:04 --> 00:18:07 But like, I just feel like that moment in the song where he's like, I've screwed up.
00:18:08 --> 00:18:09 I'm haunted by the horrible decision.
00:18:09 --> 00:18:10 I want another chance.
00:18:10 --> 00:18:12 Like the whole thing.
00:18:12 --> 00:18:13 You know, I get it.
00:18:13 --> 00:18:13 I get it.
00:18:13 --> 00:18:15 Have I made a decision like that before?
00:18:15 --> 00:18:17 I don't think so.
00:18:17 --> 00:18:20 But yes, redemption arcs and love stories is what makes it all worth it, right?
00:18:21 --> 00:18:47 right sure yeah you know but yes i um love especially the live i actually have like a note for it your lists are what i want anyone else who gets between us is an enemy again everyone in the world wants my girl everyone yeah this song i think in terms of like i want this woman that's a little bit better than still a girl i would say i would say yeah okay so i have this one as an 8.5
00:18:49 --> 00:18:54 For this to be the better version of Steal My Girl than, yeah, I guess if we're five, because I gave it an eight.
00:18:54 --> 00:18:57 I ate my brother's guy.
00:18:57 --> 00:18:58 Okay.
00:18:58 --> 00:18:59 Yeah.
00:18:59 --> 00:19:04 So next up is 18, done by Ed Sheeran and Oliver Frank.
00:19:05 --> 00:19:08 And yes, this is another Ed Sheeran song for the band.
00:19:08 --> 00:19:09 I believe the last one, though.
00:19:09 --> 00:19:11 Thank God.
00:19:12 --> 00:19:16 So apparently Ed actually turned Simon Cowell down at first when he asked him for a song, but then...
00:19:17 --> 00:19:19 he got inspired in the bathroom.
00:19:19 --> 00:19:21 Yeah, he was like- Co-pagan.
00:19:21 --> 00:19:27 Right, millions of dollars of inspiration.
00:19:27 --> 00:19:33 Our patron, Hillary, would like to note that Niall used to get teased by how he pronounced chance, chunks.
00:19:33 --> 00:19:37 Yeah, it's like there's a couple of words I can hear, I'm like, what did you just say?
00:19:38 --> 00:19:39 I love it though.
00:19:39 --> 00:19:40 You're breaking his little act.
00:19:40 --> 00:19:41 He's Irish, right?
00:19:41 --> 00:19:41 Yeah.
00:19:41 --> 00:19:42 Shout out to the Irishman.
00:19:43 --> 00:19:43 Shout out to y'all.
00:19:49 --> 00:19:52 Yes, okay, I've said this before and I'll say it again.
00:19:52 --> 00:19:54 I'm not particularly wowed by Ed.
00:19:54 --> 00:19:59 I never, even before everything is happening right now, I have never been like, oh, let me download A-Team.
00:19:59 --> 00:20:00 Do I know his song?
00:20:00 --> 00:20:01 Yes.
00:20:01 --> 00:20:04 I think there's one song I like, was it Thinking Out Loud?
00:20:04 --> 00:20:04 Maybe?
00:20:05 --> 00:20:07 I think that song I like, I think?
00:20:09 --> 00:20:09 On the grass.
00:20:13 --> 00:20:14 Is that that song?
00:20:14 --> 00:20:17 I think I don't listen to Ed Sheeran, I'm sorry.
00:20:17 --> 00:20:17 Listen.
00:20:20 --> 00:20:22 Listen, I worked at Damon Busters when I was younger.
00:20:22 --> 00:20:24 I worked at Damon Busters, and they played...
00:20:25 --> 00:20:31 a lot of like this catalog with the label they were signed to, like Sony, not Sony, Epic.
00:20:31 --> 00:20:32 Oh, them?
00:20:32 --> 00:20:32 Yes.
00:20:32 --> 00:20:32 Columbia.
00:20:32 --> 00:20:33 Columbia, exactly.
00:20:33 --> 00:20:34 They were Sony.
00:20:34 --> 00:20:36 So they played a lot of Sony properties.
00:20:36 --> 00:20:38 It was like Ed, One Direction.
00:20:38 --> 00:20:41 So a couple of songs from this album, I know because they kept playing a music video.
00:20:41 --> 00:20:44 But for this one, I never really cared for his writing style.
00:20:45 --> 00:20:47 But yeah, I just feel like for me, it's okay.
00:20:47 --> 00:20:51 Cause he has a very specific sound where I'm just like, dude, okay, we give it, you wrote it.
00:20:51 --> 00:20:54 Why can't you make it sound like you just didn't reject it for your own album?
00:20:54 --> 00:20:54 Yeah.
00:20:55 --> 00:21:07 that's just my thing but I also understand like oh my god like Ed Sheeran wrote this song and like there was a group of people that are obsessed with him I get that love for you I just think for this band it was more of like a it would sound good if you did it with him
00:21:08 --> 00:21:10 Like with with with animal and cat size.
00:21:10 --> 00:21:16 It's just OK. You know, the chorus wants to love the way she made him feel when they were 18.
00:21:16 --> 00:21:25 And I don't know how I feel about that, because, again, when you have older men writing for guys who are literally in their 20s saying when we were 18, that was yesterday.
00:21:25 --> 00:21:26 What do you mean?
00:21:28 --> 00:21:29 What do you mean?
00:21:29 --> 00:21:32 But yeah, I think that the whole nostalgia is nice.
00:21:33 --> 00:21:36 It just kind of just feels like a reminiscing about the good old days from a gap year.
00:21:36 --> 00:21:38 Like maybe after high school, like things just happened to change.
00:21:38 --> 00:21:39 Like we're adults now.
00:21:39 --> 00:21:41 We don't have time to do things.
00:21:41 --> 00:21:42 We're still making the relationship work.
00:21:42 --> 00:21:46 Like I'm trying to like tether myself to this song a little bit too much.
00:21:47 --> 00:21:48 But it's just not, it's okay.
00:21:48 --> 00:21:52 And it sounds like Ed, cool, but no, no, no shade.
00:21:53 --> 00:21:53 I just...
00:21:54 --> 00:21:56 Yeah, I will say he has a very signature style.
00:21:56 --> 00:22:01 So if you like his songwriting, I'm sure you love this as well.
00:22:02 --> 00:22:12 This is definitely giving Teen Ron Com soundtrack super cheesy, you know, like 13 going on 30 of like, they like reunite, yeah.
00:22:12 --> 00:22:14 Yeah, I don't know.
00:22:14 --> 00:22:17 There's just nothing about this melody that really grabs me.
00:22:17 --> 00:22:22 I do like Liam's part in the second verse because he at least kind of takes it somewhere.
00:22:22 --> 00:22:22 Mm-hmm.
00:22:23 --> 00:22:31 And then in terms of the build of the song, like with the second chorus and it becoming full gang vocal with the harmonies and stuff, that's very nice as well.
00:22:32 --> 00:22:33 And they use all the tones well.
00:22:33 --> 00:22:38 Like Louis gets to kind of do that, the chorus by himself, right before the climax, just to kind of pull it back.
00:22:38 --> 00:22:41 And he gets all kind of cracky and sincere.
00:22:42 --> 00:22:43 And I like that.
00:22:44 --> 00:22:46 It just melodically, this just doesn't do anything for me.
00:22:46 --> 00:22:47 Yeah.
00:22:47 --> 00:22:47 Yeah.
00:22:48 --> 00:22:49 So, yeah.
00:22:50 --> 00:22:50 This is not.
00:22:50 --> 00:22:53 I don't want to go anything below like a seven.
00:22:53 --> 00:22:55 So seven feels safe for me.
00:22:56 --> 00:22:57 I feel like it's okay.
00:22:57 --> 00:22:58 I don't hate the song because Edward.
00:22:59 --> 00:23:00 I just don't like the song.
00:23:00 --> 00:23:00 Yeah.
00:23:01 --> 00:23:02 I have it as a seven.
00:23:02 --> 00:23:02 Okay.
00:23:03 --> 00:23:09 And up next is Girl Almighty, and this was done by Julian Benetta, John Ryan, and S. Pages Maynard.
00:23:09 --> 00:23:18 On the On the Road Again tour, this was usually the last song before the encore, and fans adopted the title as a nickname for the fandom, and it's a popular One Direction tattoo.
00:23:24 --> 00:23:28 Yeah, so with this song, controversy has come.
00:23:28 --> 00:23:35 So at a show in Columbus, Ohio in August 2015, Liam introduced a song saying, it's about finding that number one woman in your life.
00:23:36 --> 00:23:39 Then he said it probably wasn't relatable since most of you are girls.
00:23:39 --> 00:23:40 And some of the fans called it homophobic.
00:23:46 --> 00:24:02 Liam called that Clint ridiculous on Twitter and I concur but he did apologize to anyone he offended and fans rallied behind him with the hashtag we love you Liam and I may have seen that because I was on K-pop stand Twitter and I did not know what was happening so I also think that's not what he meant laughter
00:24:03 --> 00:24:04 But that's so funny.
00:24:05 --> 00:24:05 I love that.
00:24:05 --> 00:24:07 That's hilarious.
00:24:07 --> 00:24:09 The songs are infamous, man.
00:24:10 --> 00:24:10 Yes.
00:24:10 --> 00:24:12 So our patron, Hillary, says this is a bop.
00:24:12 --> 00:24:12 Yeah.
00:24:13 --> 00:24:13 And I agree.
00:24:13 --> 00:24:14 This one's super fun.
00:24:14 --> 00:24:15 I love the drums on here.
00:24:15 --> 00:24:17 There's just a lot of momentum and energy here.
00:24:18 --> 00:24:19 And the overall structure is fun.
00:24:20 --> 00:24:22 Like it takes you on a journey for sure.
00:24:22 --> 00:24:26 And it just sounds like it was fun to write and just fun to perform, fun to sing in the studio.
00:24:27 --> 00:24:30 I will say I don't love that the verses are exactly the same lyrically.
00:24:31 --> 00:24:31 Yes.
00:24:31 --> 00:24:33 But at least you have different members singing.
00:24:33 --> 00:24:36 So that at least kind of makes them sound different.
00:24:36 --> 00:24:41 But I will say, I think this is one of the more instant, like memorable songs on the album for me.
00:24:41 --> 00:24:45 Because it does kind of, it keeps you engaged because it's all everywhere it's going.
00:24:45 --> 00:24:45 Yeah.
00:24:46 --> 00:24:54 Because I'm going to be honest, some of the other songs on the album started to blend together for me a lot, especially when I started listening to the album the first few times.
00:24:54 --> 00:24:55 Yeah.
00:24:55 --> 00:24:58 So yeah, this one, at least I kind of remember from the get go.
00:24:58 --> 00:25:20 you know what i remember this song for a specific reason i will get to uh but yes the lyrics are interesting because it is about this larger than life woman and this could be considered like a little bit of a pander but i again i still feel like it's stronger than still my girl because it doesn't sound so get behind me baby like jacob and bella you know it doesn't feel like oh you don't loca you know it doesn't feel like that you know this feels a little bit more just like
00:25:21 --> 00:25:22 Here ye, here ye.
00:25:22 --> 00:25:23 Come meet this woman.
00:25:23 --> 00:25:24 She's beautiful and she's mine.
00:25:24 --> 00:25:24 Ha ha ha.
00:25:25 --> 00:25:25 You know, it feels fun.
00:25:26 --> 00:25:36 And I think the light, the light is as loud as the ambulance is, like her light rather, is as loud as ambulances it would take to save a savior.
00:25:37 --> 00:25:38 what a set of words strung together.
00:25:39 --> 00:25:40 I couldn't barely say it.
00:25:40 --> 00:25:41 Like I had to like read it.
00:25:42 --> 00:25:46 But yes, this religious adoration for the girl that so many misunderstands.
00:25:46 --> 00:25:48 She's bright, she's amazing, she's fake.
00:25:49 --> 00:25:50 No, she's happy, maybe.
00:25:50 --> 00:25:53 Whatever it is, the thing about her is just amazing.
00:25:53 --> 00:25:54 And I'm here for that.
00:25:54 --> 00:25:59 But I will say, the song does remind me of stock music tracks that I hear in a YouTuber's vlog.
00:26:03 --> 00:26:04 there's a sound.
00:26:04 --> 00:26:05 You guys know what I'm talking about.
00:26:05 --> 00:26:05 I can find it.
00:26:06 --> 00:26:07 But yeah, it's not a bad thing.
00:26:07 --> 00:26:08 It's joyous.
00:26:08 --> 00:26:08 It's fun.
00:26:08 --> 00:26:10 And it builds in a way that does feel like a movie.
00:26:11 --> 00:26:13 So I do appreciate this on quite a bit.
00:26:13 --> 00:26:14 Okay.
00:26:14 --> 00:26:15 Eight for me.
00:26:15 --> 00:26:17 Yes, I also have this as an eight.
00:26:18 --> 00:26:20 Okay, next up is Fool's Gold.
00:26:21 --> 00:26:26 This was done by all five members of One Direction, Jamie Scott and Maureen McDonald.
00:26:26 --> 00:26:30 And our patrons Sarah and Hillary have noted that Niall has performed it in the past.
00:26:31 --> 00:26:31 Yes.
00:26:31 --> 00:26:31 Yeah.
00:26:32 --> 00:26:33 And Hillary loves hearing all the boys on this one.
00:26:39 --> 00:26:40 I like it actually.
00:26:40 --> 00:26:43 I think it's one of my of the better ones of the ballads for me.
00:26:44 --> 00:26:46 I think Niall sounds great starting the song.
00:26:47 --> 00:26:47 Super warm.
00:26:48 --> 00:26:49 I like the verses a lot.
00:26:50 --> 00:26:56 I think the chorus took me a few times to grow on me but it's actually really beautiful.
00:26:56 --> 00:26:58 Like the run of it is actually really nice.
00:26:59 --> 00:27:00 sequence of notes.
00:27:01 --> 00:27:03 And I do wish the harmonies were a bit louder in the mix.
00:27:04 --> 00:27:04 Okay.
00:27:04 --> 00:27:07 It's actually a really beautiful arrangement.
00:27:07 --> 00:27:13 But yeah, I think my only note really is I wish Zane just kind of got to live all over the end of it just to kind of build it up a bit.
00:27:13 --> 00:27:16 But I did find a performance of this and it sounded really beautiful.
00:27:16 --> 00:27:20 So this was, I think, one of the better ballads on this album.
00:27:20 --> 00:27:20 Yeah.
00:27:20 --> 00:27:25 So this song feels like the other side of the Girl Almighty coin for me.
00:27:25 --> 00:27:28 Because, like, she's amazing and she has this gravitational pull that's too strong.
00:27:29 --> 00:27:31 She's a charmer, but she doesn't want me.
00:27:31 --> 00:27:32 You know?
00:27:32 --> 00:27:34 I think the metaphors come in the pair.
00:27:34 --> 00:27:37 It's like he's a crow on the wire and she's a shining distraction that makes him fly.
00:27:37 --> 00:27:40 He's a boat on the water and she's a rays of the wave that calms his mind.
00:27:40 --> 00:27:43 Like, it's very much like she is so good.
00:27:44 --> 00:28:09 for me she doesn't want me or is she really good for you or you're just like really infatuated with her you haven't realized that because the fool's gold thing is like she's so shiny and pretty but like she's pyrite not gold yeah you know um like is this the right person wrong time or just wrong person for an amazing time i like that kind of concept for the song um and i feel like with this song there's no necessarily a bitterness there's a certain appreciation coming from them that feels foolish
00:28:10 --> 00:28:17 But they are accepting their role of part they get to play in this whole, I guess, thing.
00:28:18 --> 00:28:19 Is it a situation ship?
00:28:19 --> 00:28:19 We don't know.
00:28:19 --> 00:28:22 But either way, somebody was not taking someone serious here.
00:28:22 --> 00:28:24 So I think the chorus is a little bit draggy, though.
00:28:25 --> 00:28:26 So I get what you were saying.
00:28:26 --> 00:28:27 So I was like, oh, yeah.
00:28:27 --> 00:28:29 And then there is no big moment.
00:28:30 --> 00:28:32 But yeah, I'm between scores in terms of like...
00:28:33 --> 00:29:01 what the song really is like giving me but i do like a vibe of the song i do like a type that it came right after girl almighty because it feels like to like uh what's called bookend yes says bookend bookends i like it so i'm just trying to figure out if it's like i'm trying to take points away because they're missing a popol thing that i wanted or is the story good enough to last so yeah we're trying to figure it out maybe i don't know i'm gonna work on my decision i have it as an eight i'll let your score because there are some tracks i'm like god i don't like this
00:29:03 --> 00:29:07 Well, we'll find out what those are because we are halfway through the episode.

00:29:26 --> 00:29:26 Hey, you.
00:29:26 --> 00:29:27 Yeah.
00:29:28 --> 00:29:35 Up next is Night Changes with the writers and producers being One Direction, Jamie Scott, Julian Benetta, and John Ryan.
00:29:35 --> 00:29:39 And this was the second and final single from the album released November 14th, 2014.
00:29:40 --> 00:29:42 And it was also the last single with Zayn.
00:29:42 --> 00:29:47 And it picked at number 7 in the UK and number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100.
00:29:47 --> 00:29:49 And the video was directed by Ben Winston.
00:29:49 --> 00:29:52 In a shot from your point of view, that's right, YN.
00:29:52 --> 00:29:56 You're on a date with each member and every date goes wrong in a different way.
00:29:56 --> 00:30:01 And it's their most streamed song on Spotify with over 2 billion streams.
00:30:01 --> 00:30:06 And after Liam passed in 2024, the Jonas Brothers and Maggie Rogers both covered it as its tribute.
00:30:07 --> 00:30:10 And Louis now does it as a reimagined version on his 2026 tour.
00:30:12 --> 00:30:21 And Zane finally has sung it in Mexico City on March 25th, 2025, exactly 10 years to the day after leaving One Direction.
00:30:21 --> 00:30:26 And he told us that it was his first time singing it in a decade and that he almost cried.
00:30:26 --> 00:30:32 So this is very sweet.
00:30:34 --> 00:30:35 Very sweet, very sweet song.
00:30:35 --> 00:30:35 Yes.
00:30:36 --> 00:30:39 So yes, our patrons have noted that all five of them have performed it solo.
00:30:40 --> 00:30:43 Though she thinks Harry may have only done an instrumental version.
00:30:44 --> 00:30:48 And then for Hillary, she said the more she listens, the more she actually gets tired of it.
00:30:48 --> 00:30:51 And she noted that fans believe it's about losing your virginity.
00:30:52 --> 00:30:54 But now people also connect it to Leanne's passing.
00:30:54 --> 00:30:58 So I guess there's a lot of interpretation.
00:30:58 --> 00:31:00 You can out with that.
00:31:00 --> 00:31:01 That red dress she put on.
00:31:03 --> 00:31:06 Oh, so excuse me?
00:31:06 --> 00:31:07 Girl, yes.
00:31:07 --> 00:31:10 I will say I love this song.
00:31:10 --> 00:31:18 I think even prior to us starting to go through One Direction's discography at all, this was kind of the only song of theirs that I knew quite well and was on a few playlists and stuff.
00:31:19 --> 00:31:23 I remember seeing them perform it at the American Music Awards and being like, oh, wow, this is a beautiful song.
00:31:24 --> 00:31:27 So yes, Beautiful Song deserves to be their most streamed song.
00:31:28 --> 00:31:29 Yes.
00:31:29 --> 00:31:32 Because, yeah, I think the chorus melody is just beautiful.
00:31:32 --> 00:31:33 It's timeless.
00:31:33 --> 00:31:33 It's simple.
00:31:34 --> 00:31:35 It's just so pretty.
00:31:35 --> 00:31:35 Yeah.
00:31:35 --> 00:31:39 And the whole thing is just so understated.
00:31:39 --> 00:31:40 Mm-hmm.
00:31:40 --> 00:31:42 You know, it's kind of twinkly.
00:31:43 --> 00:31:46 All the oohs behind the chorus are, like, very dreamy.
00:31:46 --> 00:31:46 Yeah.
00:31:46 --> 00:31:48 So, yeah, I love this one.
00:31:48 --> 00:31:57 This is one that, like, if I were to make, like, a boy band playlist or something where you kind of take the best of all the biggest ones, this would probably be in there.
00:31:57 --> 00:31:57 Mm-hmm.
00:31:58 --> 00:32:07 I like this a lot with Story of My Life or Cry Like My Favorites by them because it's like, they have one song per album where it's like, oof, it's about a denial and it's not cheesy.
00:32:07 --> 00:32:08 It just feels this.
00:32:09 --> 00:32:15 Yes, there's love mentioned in it, but it just could take on so many different forms of meanings.
00:32:15 --> 00:32:17 So I think that's really special to have as a song.
00:32:18 --> 00:32:19 And it does sound like it's written by an older man.
00:32:20 --> 00:32:30 I will say, I'm not saying that teens and early 20-somethings can't consider the passage of time, but I think you get what I'm saying, where it's just like, maybe the night changes, like, how old are you guys right now?
00:32:30 --> 00:32:32 It just feels older.
00:32:32 --> 00:32:35 So now that they are older singing, it just feels so much more settled in.
00:32:35 --> 00:32:37 They let all of them understand a little bit more.
00:32:38 --> 00:32:42 I mean, considering also that they were literally famous at, like,
00:32:42 --> 00:33:05 in their teens and having to go through that they they probably did age the freaking like rapid amount um but yeah i remember hearing this song on repeat at the restaurant i worked at and i don't think i ever got tired of it i think i i actually kept trying to peek to see the video um but yeah this song isn't huge in terms of like big and stadium and giant and loud and you know
00:33:06 --> 00:33:32 choir vocals or gang vocals or whatever but it does carry emotional responsibility and it's asking for trust lyrically and the guys deliver it um really well like not only does the night change but so does the key of this song so i think like it's amazing how it it's super simple it doesn't feel grand but it doesn't feel it doesn't sound grand in terms of the change but it feels that way because you can feel something shifting
00:33:33 --> 00:33:33 Right.
00:33:33 --> 00:33:35 But the emotion got more deeper.
00:33:35 --> 00:33:36 And it's just like, ah, that's so clever.
00:33:36 --> 00:33:42 I think it's very like, if you're not really listening or not really realizing what you're listening to, you can miss out on that.
00:33:42 --> 00:33:43 Look, why do I like this car?
00:33:43 --> 00:33:44 Why does this feel so good?
00:33:44 --> 00:33:49 Because the song is telling you that the feeling is getting intense, even though the key is changing.
00:33:49 --> 00:33:49 Like it's,
00:33:50 --> 00:33:52 I don't know if that's like a post.
00:33:52 --> 00:33:54 Like we figured out the production first and then we added that in.
00:33:54 --> 00:33:55 Whatever it was.
00:33:55 --> 00:33:56 Smart genius.
00:33:57 --> 00:34:03 And then I think with the seriousness of the tone, the video is, okay, a mess.
00:34:04 --> 00:34:08 So if you haven't seen the video, which is fine, because I never actually saw the full video.
00:34:08 --> 00:34:08 I just watched it.
00:34:08 --> 00:34:09 I like looking at Zayn.
00:34:10 --> 00:34:10 I'm not going to lie.
00:34:11 --> 00:34:12 I was a Zayn girl.
00:34:12 --> 00:34:12 I looked for him.
00:34:13 --> 00:34:16 And he liked Baby Scar, you know, with the long hair.
00:34:16 --> 00:34:17 Baby Scar?
00:34:17 --> 00:34:19 Yeah, you know Scar from Lion King?
00:34:20 --> 00:34:22 Yeah, he was giving like that for me.
00:34:22 --> 00:34:25 I was like, ooh, dark and handsome with the dark hair, a little Aladdin.
00:34:26 --> 00:34:27 I liked his little bob, okay?
00:34:27 --> 00:34:30 Anyway, the dates are crazy.
00:34:30 --> 00:34:31 You got Harry on the ice skating rink.
00:34:31 --> 00:34:35 You got Zane on the restaurant.
00:34:35 --> 00:34:37 Liam, Amusement Park.
00:34:37 --> 00:34:39 Niall, you guys are in a cabin.
00:34:39 --> 00:34:40 And then Louis tickets for a drive.
00:34:41 --> 00:34:41 Now,
00:34:42 --> 00:34:45 There is various amounts of offenses in this video.
00:34:45 --> 00:34:45 Yeah.
00:34:45 --> 00:34:47 However, I think Zayn got wrong.
00:34:47 --> 00:34:51 Because what do you mean you're out with me and you got a man already?
00:34:51 --> 00:34:51 Was that the thing?
00:34:51 --> 00:34:52 Because that wasn't her dad.
00:34:53 --> 00:34:54 She was messed up.
00:34:54 --> 00:34:55 Harry...
00:34:57 --> 00:34:58 It's the worst one.
00:34:58 --> 00:35:04 What do you mean you grabbed me and flung me and dropped me like I was Ariel and you were Eric?
00:35:05 --> 00:35:06 How dare you fling me?
00:35:06 --> 00:35:09 It's him going like this in the camera for me.
00:35:09 --> 00:35:12 I was like, that's what y'all decided to do.
00:35:12 --> 00:35:14 I mean, Niall is super cute, Scott Byrne.
00:35:15 --> 00:35:39 and then louie got arrested i don't know if i would want to be on a date with a criminal i don't know i feel like okay i think okay so so niall i think it was the least defensive line because it was like that's not like this clumsy that's okay like we can figure that out like and yeah you like knocked the wine over but it's fine like you his arm was on fire like that's okay yeah he's nervous yeah the other ones also liam like barfy i don't know like it's not great that he did it in her hat yeah but it's not terrible
00:35:41 --> 00:35:42 I feel like that's also forgivable.
00:35:43 --> 00:35:46 Louis, you can see he kind of provokes the police officers.
00:35:46 --> 00:35:47 So then I'm kind of like, oh.
00:35:47 --> 00:35:48 Right.
00:35:48 --> 00:35:50 You know, so there's a reason he got arrested.
00:35:50 --> 00:35:52 It wasn't like it was unjustified.
00:35:52 --> 00:35:53 Yeah, I'm just trying to be with a criminal.
00:35:53 --> 00:35:54 He's like, no.
00:35:54 --> 00:35:55 Yeah.
00:35:55 --> 00:35:57 Like, so, but yes, I love the video.
00:35:57 --> 00:35:58 Very entertaining.
00:35:58 --> 00:35:58 It is.
00:35:59 --> 00:35:59 It is.
00:35:59 --> 00:36:00 Yeah.
00:36:00 --> 00:36:03 But yes, again, Zayn, tell me y'all that he didn't look beautiful.
00:36:03 --> 00:36:07 He's in the movie, the restaurant looking all warm and cozy.
00:36:07 --> 00:36:08 And he like, his eyebrows.
00:36:08 --> 00:36:10 Wow, this guy's so handsome.
00:36:10 --> 00:36:10 Yeah.
00:36:10 --> 00:36:10 You know?
00:36:11 --> 00:36:11 God.
00:36:11 --> 00:36:12 Oof.
00:36:12 --> 00:36:12 Jesus.
00:36:12 --> 00:36:13 I wish I was into that.
00:36:13 --> 00:36:13 I've heard of him.
00:36:14 --> 00:36:15 Spend my money.
00:36:15 --> 00:36:16 Okay.
00:36:16 --> 00:36:18 So that being said, this song is amazing.
00:36:19 --> 00:36:19 Well written.
00:36:20 --> 00:36:20 Video's great.
00:36:20 --> 00:36:21 We love her.
00:36:21 --> 00:36:21 Zayn.
00:36:22 --> 00:36:23 10.
00:36:23 --> 00:36:23 Yes.
00:36:23 --> 00:36:24 Yes.
00:36:24 --> 00:36:33 OK. Next is No Control, done by Louie, Liam, Ruthann, Cunningham, Jamie Scott, Julianne Bonetta, and John Ryan.
00:36:33 --> 00:36:35 And this song was not an official single.
00:36:35 --> 00:36:45 But in May 2015, fans launched Project No Control, and they requested the song on radio, streamed it nonstop, and even made their own cover art and music videos.
00:36:45 --> 00:36:51 So the song then topped Billboard's Twitter real time chart, and it hit number seven on the bubbling under Hot 100.
00:36:52 --> 00:36:59 And then their Carpool Karaoke with James Corden in December 2015, the guys did synchronized choreography to it in matching Denim Boucher.
00:36:59 --> 00:36:59 Still up.
00:36:59 --> 00:37:02 And that kind of became the unofficial music video, I guess.
00:37:02 --> 00:37:06 I'm all yours, I've got no control!
00:37:06 --> 00:37:07 No control!
00:37:07 --> 00:37:07 Uh-huh.
00:37:08 --> 00:37:13 And thanks to the fan campaign, the band did end up adding it to the On The Road Again tour setlist in June 2015.
00:37:13 --> 00:37:15 Waking up, it's time to wonder
00:37:20 --> 00:37:29 So there is some lore to why they have this campaign, though, because the organizers actually pitched the campaign as a way to support Louis because he sings lead.
00:37:29 --> 00:37:33 And it was because right after Zayn left, the two of them had a feud on Twitter.
00:37:34 --> 00:37:41 But some fans actually sat this campaign out because they felt that it was driven by Larry's silence and shippers.
00:37:41 --> 00:37:42 Yeah.
00:37:44 --> 00:37:48 This song, though, has been brought back recently on Louis' solo tour.
00:37:48 --> 00:37:50 So he's been performing it, which we love.
00:37:50 --> 00:37:50 Yeah.
00:37:50 --> 00:37:51 Yes.
00:37:51 --> 00:37:55 So our patron said, well, Hillary said, Louis owns this song.
00:37:55 --> 00:37:58 And even though it mentions lipstick, it's considered a Larry's.
00:38:00 --> 00:38:04 And Sarah says that fans have begged Louis for years to sing it solo.
00:38:04 --> 00:38:10 And he finally did it this year, which is very funny because he has said that some 1D songs feel too raunchy for him now.
00:38:10 --> 00:38:11 That is so funny.
00:38:11 --> 00:38:11 Okay.
00:38:11 --> 00:38:11 Hang on.
00:38:12 --> 00:38:12 Okay.
00:38:12 --> 00:38:12 Okay.
00:38:13 --> 00:38:16 I guess if you're a kid and you hear, oh, loaded gun.
00:38:16 --> 00:38:18 Oh, my God, he's a loaded gun.
00:38:18 --> 00:38:18 Come on.
00:38:18 --> 00:38:19 I guess that's raunchy.
00:38:19 --> 00:38:21 But, like, I'm listening to the song.
00:38:21 --> 00:38:22 They already did what they had to do.
00:38:23 --> 00:38:25 He just woke up next to her and was like, wow, she put it on me.
00:38:25 --> 00:38:27 I want to turn this girl every which way but loose.
00:38:27 --> 00:38:28 That's what I got from it.
00:38:28 --> 00:38:30 It wasn't like, I want to go again.
00:38:30 --> 00:38:33 It was more like, I'm so into you after what we did.
00:38:33 --> 00:38:34 Like, I liked you.
00:38:34 --> 00:38:35 I like you even more now.
00:38:35 --> 00:38:37 That's what the lyrics are kind of saying.
00:38:37 --> 00:38:39 Like, okay, no, I definitely heard it, though.
00:38:39 --> 00:38:40 Let's go again.
00:38:42 --> 00:38:43 I'm ready.
00:38:44 --> 00:38:45 Y'all can sell bikes.
00:38:45 --> 00:38:45 You know.
00:38:52 --> 00:38:58 Look, it must have been real exciting to hear the boys that you want to be with or that you love listening to.
00:38:58 --> 00:38:58 Talk a little dirty.
00:38:59 --> 00:39:00 You know, but it still feels sweet to me.
00:39:00 --> 00:39:02 I was not getting like, oh, yeah.
00:39:03 --> 00:39:05 Again, he woke up beside her.
00:39:05 --> 00:39:07 They done did everything they needed to do.
00:39:07 --> 00:39:08 They have already been together.
00:39:08 --> 00:39:09 So now he's all in.
00:39:09 --> 00:39:10 That's like what he's saying.
00:39:10 --> 00:39:14 Like he's completely smitten after having sealed the deal.
00:39:14 --> 00:39:16 But apparently I don't know how to read.
00:39:16 --> 00:39:16 I'm illiterate.
00:39:17 --> 00:39:18 But it's fine.
00:39:18 --> 00:39:20 I don't get black jelly being nasty.
00:39:20 --> 00:39:21 But it's still a little cheeky.
00:39:21 --> 00:39:22 I don't.
00:39:22 --> 00:39:22 What?
00:39:22 --> 00:39:50 lyric i am i wrong i'm sorry let's read the lyrics hey guys we're gonna read the lyrics together because apparently it's not but it's not i don't think it's black w be nasty this this one is a little reckless a little reckless but like they're falling for it's kind of cute no let's see i'm powerless got no control powerless i don't care it's odd i can't get enough of you pedal the pedals down my eyes are closed no control taste on my tongue can't control it
00:39:51 --> 00:39:52 No, the pedal's down.
00:39:52 --> 00:39:56 Like, I'm speeding full headfirst into your love.
00:39:56 --> 00:40:01 Into your... Not even...
00:40:02 --> 00:40:02 I'm not getting that.
00:40:03 --> 00:40:05 Again, you could tell who's been...
00:40:05 --> 00:40:05 I'm not...
00:40:05 --> 00:40:07 I don't get that from here.
00:40:07 --> 00:40:08 The loaded gun innocently.
00:40:08 --> 00:40:09 It could be.
00:40:09 --> 00:40:09 Or...
00:40:10 --> 00:40:13 See, after the night spent with his lover, the man wakes up to the...
00:40:14 --> 00:40:16 It completely infatuated.
00:40:16 --> 00:40:18 He is no longer in control of the relationship.
00:40:18 --> 00:40:20 He did anything for the person after this.
00:40:21 --> 00:40:21 Keep reading.
00:40:22 --> 00:40:24 The phrase loaded gun, I get it.
00:40:24 --> 00:40:24 Keep going.
00:40:28 --> 00:40:30 It could be innocently referenced in the excitement.
00:40:31 --> 00:40:36 It could, however, be an innuendo to an era, which could match the overall tone of the song, which is fine.
00:40:37 --> 00:40:40 So he's saying, I want to go again, but he's also saying after.
00:40:40 --> 00:40:43 No, these verses are clearly just about the act.
00:40:43 --> 00:40:44 Really?
00:40:44 --> 00:40:44 Yeah.
00:40:44 --> 00:40:47 Wake up is, I don't want to watch Taste of My Tongue last night before.
00:40:47 --> 00:40:48 They did it already in the heat.
00:40:48 --> 00:40:49 No, they want to do it again.
00:40:49 --> 00:40:49 No.
00:40:51 --> 00:40:53 Uzi, oh, it's like really close.
00:40:53 --> 00:40:54 Love my senses.
00:40:54 --> 00:40:57 I have perfumes called me Ransom, Sweet and Sour Heart, Devour, Lie, Here, I Count the Hours.
00:40:58 --> 00:40:58 Okay.
00:40:59 --> 00:41:01 It's a little nasty, but I'm still getting the whole, like, she put it on me.
00:41:01 --> 00:41:02 I love her.
00:41:02 --> 00:41:04 Yes, we can go again.
00:41:04 --> 00:41:06 But they're in bed already.
00:41:08 --> 00:41:12 No, this is just about this mix.
00:41:12 --> 00:41:12 Okay.
00:41:13 --> 00:41:14 Anyway.
00:41:14 --> 00:41:14 Okay.
00:41:15 --> 00:41:22 First off, good on the fans for giving this song a moment because even before I knew the lore, because I was just like listening to the album.
00:41:22 --> 00:41:22 Yeah.
00:41:22 --> 00:41:23 This was a standout.
00:41:23 --> 00:41:23 Oh, totally.
00:41:23 --> 00:41:24 Yes.
00:41:24 --> 00:41:24 For sure.
00:41:24 --> 00:41:26 I was like, yes, this chorus is so good.
00:41:27 --> 00:41:27 Super catchy.
00:41:28 --> 00:41:31 And it is a great balance of their sound from previous albums as well.
00:41:31 --> 00:41:33 Because it's, you know, it's a bit cheekier.
00:41:33 --> 00:41:36 You know, because everything's been quite serious until this point.
00:41:37 --> 00:41:37 Yes.
00:41:37 --> 00:41:37 Yes.
00:41:37 --> 00:41:40 Like Girl Almighty had a little bit of it, but of cheek.
00:41:41 --> 00:41:42 But this one has like real cheek.
00:41:43 --> 00:41:43 Yeah.
00:41:43 --> 00:41:46 You know, so it was just refreshing for this to be here.
00:41:46 --> 00:41:50 I think on this album, I love that Louis is leading the chorus.
00:41:50 --> 00:41:54 It's just nice to switch up the sounds and just, you know, utilize the different tones that you have.
00:41:54 --> 00:41:55 For sure.
00:41:55 --> 00:41:55 Um...
00:41:56 --> 00:41:58 And yeah, the carpool karaoke moment was great.
00:41:58 --> 00:41:59 The choreography.
00:41:59 --> 00:42:01 And they point at their loaded gun.
00:42:02 --> 00:42:03 The choreography.
00:42:03 --> 00:42:04 It's what I'm saying.
00:42:04 --> 00:42:05 I don't know how to pick up on cues.
00:42:06 --> 00:42:06 My bad.
00:42:06 --> 00:42:06 Sorry.
00:42:08 --> 00:42:11 Yeah, I will say the chorus is very hard to sing live because it's up there.
00:42:11 --> 00:42:13 Like for me, it's like right under my break.
00:42:14 --> 00:42:15 And you're at that like the whole time.
00:42:16 --> 00:42:18 So Louis having to do that, like good for him.
00:42:18 --> 00:42:21 But yeah, this is a great song.
00:42:22 --> 00:42:24 Deserves its single status for sure.
00:42:24 --> 00:42:26 Yeah, I do like those ones.
00:42:26 --> 00:42:26 A highlight.
00:42:26 --> 00:42:28 Yes, 10.
00:42:28 --> 00:42:30 10 for sure.
00:42:30 --> 00:42:30 10.
00:42:30 --> 00:42:31 Okay.
00:42:31 --> 00:42:33 Up next is...
00:42:34 --> 00:42:35 Fireproof.
00:42:36 --> 00:42:39 It was done by Liam, Louis, John Ryan, Jamie Scott, and Julian Bonetta.
00:42:40 --> 00:42:48 And this was released as a free download for just 24 hours on September 8th, 2014, when they announced the album's future.
00:42:49 --> 00:42:50 It was downloaded 1.5%.
00:42:51 --> 00:43:09 one million times so shout out to the directioners for showing up for your boys and it was added to the on the road again to our set list in july 2015 it was reportedly setting sorry it reportedly set a record for the most downloads of a song in a single day in 2025 rolling stone ranked it number 106 on his list of the two
00:43:11 --> 00:43:14 150 greatest songs of the 21st century so far.
00:43:15 --> 00:43:21 And even Mitski released a cover in June, 2026 on the 10th anniversary edition of her album, Puberty 2.
00:43:27 --> 00:43:32 Now, I gotta be honest, I don't know how this...
00:43:32 --> 00:43:40 I mean, Rolling Stone ranked Kelly Clarkson number something crazy as the best singers of current times.
00:43:40 --> 00:43:43 So I don't believe the Rolling Stone really for anything.
00:43:44 --> 00:43:45 At this point, because what do you mean?
00:43:46 --> 00:43:47 I'm sorry.
00:43:47 --> 00:43:48 I'm sorry.
00:43:48 --> 00:43:51 I might be going to call it a card stand, but she is the idol.
00:43:52 --> 00:43:52 Yeah.
00:43:52 --> 00:43:52 Okay.
00:43:53 --> 00:43:55 Anyway, this song's okay.
00:43:55 --> 00:43:58 It does remind me of Fleetwood Mac, I would say, in a good way.
00:43:58 --> 00:43:58 Yeah.
00:43:58 --> 00:44:00 Like the way it's produced, for sure.
00:44:01 --> 00:44:03 And I love Fleetwood Mac.
00:44:03 --> 00:44:06 And the use of head voice in the chorus is nice.
00:44:06 --> 00:44:11 You know, I think the whole balance of it, there's like those isolated BGBs near the end as well, which is quite nice.
00:44:11 --> 00:44:12 But yeah, I don't.
00:44:13 --> 00:44:38 really think much of this one i'm gonna be honest with you it did grow on me like there's a lightness to it but it's just kind of forgettable i'm gonna be honest you know that's valid okay so i mean i have never um was right for a really explain how i do i make up to you i'm pretty sure you've seen like me former on camera setting up sure but there is always like a nice little blending brush that you need to make the clothes that kind of
00:44:39 --> 00:44:42 I feel like with this song, it feels like a blending kind of color.
00:44:42 --> 00:44:54 You know, it ties in the beginning, middle and whatever, but it ties in from no control to the spaces where it's a little bit, you know, a little bit more heavier in terms of like the vibe.
00:44:54 --> 00:44:57 So I think in track listing world, it's the buffer.
00:44:58 --> 00:44:59 Right.
00:44:59 --> 00:45:02 I think one thing that cannot be taken away from the group is that they could actually sing.
00:45:02 --> 00:45:12 And you did say it earlier, but I remember when we were watching Building the Band, Midnight to Morning was like, we don't want to be like One Direction because they don't make good music.
00:45:12 --> 00:45:12 And I'm like...
00:45:14 --> 00:45:15 You guys sound like that now.
00:45:16 --> 00:45:17 So I think that's whatever.
00:45:17 --> 00:45:22 But, like, the point is, like, they... Once they got past Sicilian Music, One Direction had a sound.
00:45:23 --> 00:45:33 Like, you can take every boy group from every decade and be like, this is their sound, and One Direction had this, like, you know, acoustic, five distinctive voices, just...
00:45:34 --> 00:45:35 They had a sound, period.
00:45:35 --> 00:45:37 We'll show that the song reminds me of road trips.
00:45:37 --> 00:45:40 The rise of campfire is gathering at the beach, like you said earlier.
00:45:40 --> 00:45:46 And also it's giving older dudes saying about their 13 year old marriage, we're fireproof.
00:45:46 --> 00:45:47 Like we've gone through everything, baby.
00:45:48 --> 00:45:48 So I think it's...
00:45:50 --> 00:45:52 And I'm not saying that they weren't pulling from their own experience.
00:45:52 --> 00:45:56 Again, four years of being famous is not for the weak.
00:45:56 --> 00:45:59 Or you can be weak, but it makes you stronger or crazy.
00:46:00 --> 00:46:03 But it is interesting to hear how impenetrable they feel with someone.
00:46:03 --> 00:46:07 And also, the lyrics are a little, a lot of nothing to something.
00:46:08 --> 00:46:09 In terms of, like, I was reading them.
00:46:09 --> 00:46:10 I'm like, I don't get it.
00:46:10 --> 00:46:11 Like, are you down on your luck?
00:46:12 --> 00:46:14 And I run and I know till I change my luck.
00:46:15 --> 00:46:16 So, like, is the...
00:46:16 --> 00:46:17 What, what, what are you trying to say?
00:46:17 --> 00:46:22 Is the relationship lucky for you or like everything has sucked, but we've made it this far.
00:46:22 --> 00:46:23 I don't know.
00:46:23 --> 00:46:25 Um, I do love the thing that you're trying to be.
00:46:26 --> 00:46:28 I love the thing that you're trying to be good at.
00:46:28 --> 00:46:29 Like, is it love?
00:46:30 --> 00:46:31 Are you trying to, something's elusive.
00:46:32 --> 00:46:33 Um, but yeah, whatever.
00:46:33 --> 00:46:36 The amorphous metaphors did not help me figure out anything.
00:46:36 --> 00:46:37 I don't, I don't know.
00:46:37 --> 00:46:39 I just feel like, okay, you know what I'm saying?
00:46:39 --> 00:46:41 Like, what are they changing their love with?
00:46:41 --> 00:46:41 Yeah.
00:46:41 --> 00:46:42 I have no idea.
00:46:42 --> 00:46:43 And then they're fireproof.
00:46:43 --> 00:46:44 So is the relationship good or not?
00:46:45 --> 00:46:46 Like, shit, I'm with you the whole story, my bad.
00:46:46 --> 00:46:48 Like, well, damn, I've been with you this long.
00:46:48 --> 00:46:49 What's, we're fireproof, baby.
00:46:50 --> 00:46:50 I don't know.
00:46:50 --> 00:46:51 I don't really care for it's okay.
00:46:52 --> 00:46:54 And then Mitski didn't make me like it either.
00:46:54 --> 00:46:54 Like, it sounds good.
00:46:54 --> 00:46:56 Cause she kind of revamped it.
00:46:56 --> 00:46:57 She sounds good, period.
00:46:57 --> 00:46:58 Like we love her.
00:46:59 --> 00:47:03 But in terms of like me being like, oh my God, like I didn't hear this before in the lyrics.
00:47:03 --> 00:47:03 Like it didn't.
00:47:09 --> 00:47:14 Yeah, I will say the kind of electro rock thing that she did with it, she made it more intense for sure, which I did appreciate.
00:47:15 --> 00:47:16 Just injected some energy in there.
00:47:16 --> 00:47:21 But yeah, I'm going to be honest, this is like one of the more forgettable songs on the album for me.
00:47:22 --> 00:47:24 I think I could replace this with one or two of those B-sides.
00:47:25 --> 00:47:26 Oh yes, they're gonna talk about real soon.
00:47:27 --> 00:47:28 Yes, yes.
00:47:28 --> 00:47:29 I have this as a seven.
00:47:29 --> 00:47:29 Me too.
00:47:29 --> 00:47:30 Okay.
00:47:30 --> 00:47:35 Next is Spaces done by Louis, Liam, Jamie Scott, Julian Bonetta, and John Ryan.
00:47:36 --> 00:47:38 And our patron Hilary notes that the harmonies are just heaven.
00:47:44 --> 00:47:46 Yes, I think the harmonies on this one is really fun.
00:47:47 --> 00:47:49 The song is built on the string of questions though.
00:47:49 --> 00:47:54 I feel like this episode has, I have to really focus on the lyrics because like we know that they can sing.
00:47:54 --> 00:47:59 I'm not going to slate the guys, but I think lyrically it's interesting because like you have this slow motion breakup going on.
00:47:59 --> 00:48:01 Who's going to mess up first?
00:48:01 --> 00:48:03 Who's going to pick the first fight all asleep first?
00:48:03 --> 00:48:05 It's one of those like, who drives waste first?
00:48:05 --> 00:48:06 Who forgets the place last?
00:48:06 --> 00:48:09 Like I get it, it's relatable.
00:48:09 --> 00:48:12 Retrospectively, the song on the macro was really a prophecy.
00:48:14 --> 00:48:16 breaking up is hard to do.
00:48:16 --> 00:48:22 So I really do appreciate the metaphors that were used to, I guess, create a picture that a lot of people can relate to.
00:48:23 --> 00:48:25 It's not easy, especially if you don't want to let go.
00:48:25 --> 00:48:27 It's like, it's interesting.
00:48:27 --> 00:48:29 Like who's going to forget first?
00:48:29 --> 00:48:31 And it's always kind of like, what do you, okay.
00:48:32 --> 00:48:33 Hopefully, I don't know.
00:48:33 --> 00:48:34 Forget the same time.
00:48:34 --> 00:48:34 Ready?
00:48:34 --> 00:48:35 One, two, three.
00:48:36 --> 00:48:38 So I do like this on for what it means.
00:48:38 --> 00:48:41 I think chorus wise, it's the melodies.
00:48:41 --> 00:48:41 Okay.
00:48:41 --> 00:48:42 The harmonies save it.
00:48:43 --> 00:48:45 but it's great.
00:48:45 --> 00:48:47 I like it a little bit better than Fireproof, I will say.
00:48:48 --> 00:48:49 I can agree with that.
00:48:49 --> 00:48:50 Yeah, and I agree with Hilary.
00:48:51 --> 00:48:55 I think the harmonies and the chorus are probably actually the best part of this song.
00:48:55 --> 00:48:59 Because, yeah, I think, I'm going to be honest, this part of the album did lose me slightly.
00:48:59 --> 00:49:04 You go from the highs of No Control, you know, and it kind of, I don't know.
00:49:04 --> 00:49:08 These melodies just haven't really done much for me, to be very honest.
00:49:10 --> 00:49:12 I will say this kind of who's going to be the first to say goodbye
00:49:13 --> 00:49:39 line is interesting because like what is this song about it's about them as a group because then well that was a that said goodbye first that yeah yeah yeah um see i get this is just another one that's like fine like i don't skip it when it's on but i don't seek it out fireproof is when i just don't seek out so i do it a little bit better i get you yeah but i do i think melodically this one is stronger than the last one but they just i don't know
00:49:39 --> 00:49:40 Nothing grabs me about it.
00:49:41 --> 00:49:43 So I have this one slightly higher at a 7.5.
00:49:43 --> 00:49:44 Yeah, I'll match you.
00:49:44 --> 00:49:46 The vocal production on this one is solid, I would say, too.
00:49:46 --> 00:49:47 Hmm.
00:49:47 --> 00:49:52 All right, next we have Stockholm Syndrome, done by Harry, Jillian Bonetta, John Ryan, and Joanne Carlson.
00:49:53 --> 00:49:57 And the sound is often compared to Everybody Wants to Rule the World by Tears for Fears.
00:49:57 --> 00:50:00 And it was added to the On the Road Again tour set list.
00:50:00 --> 00:50:03 Later in 2017, Harry performed it solo on the Today Show.
00:50:04 --> 00:50:07 And Niall has also performed it on his solo tours too.
00:50:07 --> 00:50:11 And in August 2024, Harry was filmed in the crowd at Niall's show at Today.
00:50:11 --> 00:50:14 Co-op Live and Manchester singing along.
00:50:14 --> 00:50:17 And there is some fan lore with this song as well.
00:50:17 --> 00:50:21 In 2014, Harry was asked who the captor in the song is.
00:50:21 --> 00:50:23 And his answer simply was, you.
00:50:30 --> 00:50:37 So our patron Darius said that this song should have been a single, but then our other patron Hillary said, eh, it's not my favorite.
00:50:37 --> 00:50:38 She's not a sappy girl.
00:50:38 --> 00:50:40 Hillary's hardcore, y'all.
00:50:40 --> 00:50:40 We love her.
00:50:40 --> 00:50:42 We also love different opinions.
00:50:42 --> 00:50:42 Yes.
00:50:43 --> 00:50:48 But yeah, honestly, I'm glad that she's not like our both of our patrons because there is also has had some moments.
00:50:48 --> 00:50:49 I'm like, ooh, good point.
00:50:49 --> 00:50:54 So the conversation on Patreon is always super fun because it's like you can be a fan and still say, you know what?
00:50:54 --> 00:50:54 Yeah.
00:50:55 --> 00:50:56 I don't like this one.
00:50:56 --> 00:50:57 But for me, I can't lie.
00:50:57 --> 00:50:58 I can't lie.
00:50:58 --> 00:50:58 I can't lie.
00:50:58 --> 00:51:00 I have different feelings.
00:51:00 --> 00:51:01 You like this song.
00:51:01 --> 00:51:02 I really like this one.
00:51:02 --> 00:51:02 Okay?
00:51:02 --> 00:51:02 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:51:02 --> 00:51:05 And especially after the last two, I was like, oh, okay.
00:51:06 --> 00:51:07 Let's work for back.
00:51:07 --> 00:51:08 For back a little bit.
00:51:08 --> 00:51:09 I love the melody of the verses.
00:51:09 --> 00:51:11 I love the tension build in there.
00:51:11 --> 00:51:13 There's kind of a bounce to the chorus.
00:51:13 --> 00:51:15 It's got like a nice groove, which is good.
00:51:15 --> 00:51:19 And I think naturally I lean towards the more poppy songs.
00:51:21 --> 00:51:29 Um, and so this makes sense to me that I like this one, you know, it still has the 80s vibe, but now you do have some synths in there.
00:51:29 --> 00:51:31 There's just some energy in here.
00:51:31 --> 00:51:33 The drums on here are super dynamic and really cool.
00:51:33 --> 00:51:37 Um, so yes, I'm on Darius aside, I think this should have been a single.
00:51:37 --> 00:51:38 You know what?
00:51:38 --> 00:51:38 Yeah.
00:51:38 --> 00:51:39 I hear you.
00:51:39 --> 00:51:39 That's valid.
00:51:39 --> 00:51:41 I'm also on Darius' side.
00:51:41 --> 00:51:42 The title, however, is questionable.
00:51:43 --> 00:51:46 I like the sonic silhouette, the makeup of the song.
00:51:46 --> 00:51:48 You know, who's that guy falling in love?
00:51:48 --> 00:51:48 Oh, wow.
00:51:48 --> 00:51:49 It's me.
00:51:49 --> 00:51:51 I want you to turn to me every which way.
00:51:51 --> 00:51:53 I want you to turn me every which way but loose, girl.
00:51:53 --> 00:51:53 Now I can say it.
00:51:54 --> 00:52:19 because apparently i had it wrong or no control but here he means that he's like wow i'm into you the a's influence is obvious i do hear chase for fears i think that's why i like it um but this is the romantic part of the film where there's a montage of like you know oh smash that butterfly and like you're like rolling in the hay and they're like in the grocery store like it's definitely that montage moment in terms of like feeling and happiness before the serious moment where he has to move away in the movie like
00:52:20 --> 00:52:21 Oh my God, will he choose her or his career?
00:52:21 --> 00:52:29 But yes, this deviation of the stadium rock vibe for a little bit, and it sounds like tumbling and falling in love because of the drums.
00:52:30 --> 00:52:36 And it does remind me of To All the Boys and all these other like he falls first tropes, which I do like.
00:52:36 --> 00:52:38 This is the explanation to No Control then.
00:52:38 --> 00:52:39 Fine.
00:52:41 --> 00:52:42 Um, sure.
00:52:43 --> 00:52:49 Hey, hey, hey, listen, our buddy, he saw his girl's house, but now she's trapped him in her heart.
00:52:49 --> 00:52:52 You know, like, he's there in her heart.
00:52:53 --> 00:52:55 And I really do like to hear Louis and Niall second verse.
00:52:55 --> 00:52:59 They have a boyish charm about them that just makes this feel so, like, sweet.
00:53:00 --> 00:53:02 not cheesy because now they're like men now.
00:53:02 --> 00:53:03 So it's like strong.
00:53:03 --> 00:53:06 And then the bridge is super fabulous with that head voice, honey, and the chanting.
00:53:06 --> 00:53:08 The song is fun.
00:53:08 --> 00:53:09 Yeah.
00:53:09 --> 00:53:09 I do enjoy it.
00:53:09 --> 00:53:12 Again, the title is a little boop, but it's whatever.
00:53:12 --> 00:53:14 Like we all know what Stockholm Syndrome is.
00:53:14 --> 00:53:15 You mean the beast, y'all?
00:53:16 --> 00:53:18 Joking before someone said, I love that movie.
00:53:18 --> 00:53:19 So for me, this one's a nine.
00:53:20 --> 00:53:22 Yes, I also have this as a nine.
00:53:22 --> 00:53:23 Yes.
00:53:23 --> 00:53:32 Okay, and the last song on the Standard album is Clouds, done by Louis, Liam, Zayn, Jamie Scott, Julian Bonetta, and John Ryan.
00:53:32 --> 00:53:36 And this actually opened the shows on the On the Road Again tour.
00:53:36 --> 00:53:40 And in 2020, Louis told Billboard that it's one of his favorite 1D songs to listen back on.
00:53:41 --> 00:53:44 And Niall said that the band always felt that it had a real stadium sound.
00:53:45 --> 00:53:46 Which it does.
00:53:46 --> 00:53:46 Yes, it does.
00:53:46 --> 00:53:46 Yeah.
00:53:53 --> 00:53:59 So our patrons, Darius and Hillary, have differing comments yet again.
00:53:59 --> 00:54:01 So Darius also said this should have been a single.
00:54:02 --> 00:54:03 Hillary said, good song, but not her favorite.
00:54:04 --> 00:54:04 Okay.
00:54:04 --> 00:54:05 Yeah.
00:54:05 --> 00:54:06 What do you think?
00:54:06 --> 00:54:06 All right.
00:54:06 --> 00:54:07 This song stands out for me.
00:54:08 --> 00:54:11 It's so big and intense in the beginning.
00:54:11 --> 00:54:15 The layers in the first verse, excuse me, the effects are perfect.
00:54:15 --> 00:54:19 Because thinking about the size of the song, I love on production, I love on production.
00:54:19 --> 00:54:36 and lyrics meet harmoniously not this like oh let's just put a fun melody like there's a meaning to the production there's a meaning to the lyrics and they come together really well the melody is simple in the course but the production makes it amazing because you're hearing all these textures hearing all these sounds i don't feel like a crazy cacophony it's like
00:54:37 --> 00:55:02 than harmonious it feels good it's got it's balanced as well so it's not like they're the melodies fighting the top lines fighting with the freaking production it's all very complementary um and then of course the vocals like it feels like a stratospheric passion because it builds it gets louder there's reverb on the vocals so then you're having like this uh almost almost like this like surround sound just space again the passion is there and i and i and i
00:55:03 --> 00:55:20 feel like the song really understands when you get to the lyrics the relationship did not work out situation i got situationship i got a little too real and then it's obvious that they don't want to go anywhere um it's like okay it didn't work out but i still want you and the bridge is transformative like everyone shh the bible updated
00:55:21 --> 00:55:25 You know, it's giving like, it's giving like heaven, but like I'm in hell because we're not together.
00:55:25 --> 00:55:26 And I'm just like, oh.
00:55:26 --> 00:55:27 Yeah.
00:55:27 --> 00:55:30 I do like the feeling that it represents.
00:55:30 --> 00:55:35 It's a little like, but in terms of closing out this album, I like.
00:55:35 --> 00:55:35 Yes.
00:55:35 --> 00:55:35 Yes.
00:55:36 --> 00:55:40 Yeah, really strong close the album and also really strong opener to the tour as well.
00:55:40 --> 00:55:45 If this makes sense to me, it really grabs your attention with how dramatic it is.
00:55:45 --> 00:55:48 Even right when it starts to get this big belt to kind of start it off.
00:55:48 --> 00:55:51 And there's just so much energy in this production here.
00:55:52 --> 00:55:53 Again, great arrangement.
00:55:53 --> 00:55:54 Like, the bass line's cool.
00:55:54 --> 00:55:56 There's a ton of electric guitar in here.
00:55:57 --> 00:55:59 So, yeah, them having this big anthem.
00:55:59 --> 00:56:02 I mean, this is kind of what I would picture, right?
00:56:02 --> 00:56:08 If you list all those influences that we said at the beginning, like, I want something as big as this.
00:56:09 --> 00:56:10 So this definitely makes sense to me.
00:56:11 --> 00:56:16 It's so interesting, like, just to kind of think about what would have happened if Zayn
00:56:16 --> 00:56:38 didn't leave like what were the other singles going to be and like where their sound would have gone if he stayed one more album if it would have been different i don't know like it's just interesting um but but i really like this one actually this one's a highlight for sure yes so i have it as a nine mine's a ten oh i really like this one
00:56:39 --> 00:56:43 Yeah, so as you know, there are four bonus tracks from this era.
00:56:43 --> 00:56:48 So if you'd like to hear us talk about those, come join us at patreon.com slash CCTV pops.
00:56:48 --> 00:56:53 But until then, we now add our cut or keep section.
00:56:53 --> 00:56:58 So if we had to cut a song off this album, what would it be and why?
00:56:58 --> 00:56:59 18.
00:56:59 --> 00:56:59 Yeah.
00:57:00 --> 00:57:01 Goodbye.
00:57:01 --> 00:57:02 I knew you were going to do that.
00:57:03 --> 00:57:03 It's not good.
00:57:04 --> 00:57:05 Yeah.
00:57:05 --> 00:57:05 Sorry, guys.
00:57:06 --> 00:57:08 Yeah, I mean, I will say like 18.
00:57:09 --> 00:57:10 I don't love it.
00:57:10 --> 00:57:14 But where the album does booze me is fireproof spaces.
00:57:14 --> 00:57:16 That block right there.
00:57:16 --> 00:57:18 So I'll probably choose fireproof.
00:57:18 --> 00:57:18 Yeah.
00:57:19 --> 00:57:23 So our patron Hillary said that she would cut clouds or Stockholm Syndrome.
00:57:23 --> 00:57:26 She said everything that you love.
00:57:26 --> 00:57:27 Damn.
00:57:28 --> 00:57:28 Yes.
00:57:29 --> 00:57:30 And her key would actually be spaces.
00:57:31 --> 00:57:33 Sorry, Hillary, that I don't agree with you.
00:57:35 --> 00:57:36 Oh, man.
00:57:36 --> 00:57:38 But my keep would be No Control.
00:57:40 --> 00:57:43 Apparently, I don't deserve to keep No Control because I don't know what this skits about.
00:57:44 --> 00:57:47 So, mine is going to be Clouds.
00:57:47 --> 00:57:48 That song goes off.
00:57:48 --> 00:57:49 It got my 10.
00:57:49 --> 00:57:51 So, I got to give it what it deserves.
00:57:51 --> 00:57:51 Okay.
00:57:52 --> 00:57:52 I'm Team Louie.
00:57:53 --> 00:57:53 Yeah.
00:57:53 --> 00:57:54 I hear you.
00:57:54 --> 00:57:55 Oh, my God.
00:57:55 --> 00:57:56 Obsessed with him on that.
00:57:56 --> 00:57:56 Yeah.
00:57:57 --> 00:57:57 All right, guys.
00:57:58 --> 00:58:00 So, for this album...
00:58:00 --> 00:58:04 I think overall thoughts are pretty consistent amongst all of us.
00:58:05 --> 00:58:10 On Patreon, Sarah said, Four is such a great album, and most people probably consider it their best.
00:58:11 --> 00:58:17 But she thinks some of that is a loyalty to Zayn and Nostalgia, since it's the last one with all five.
00:58:17 --> 00:58:20 Her personal fave is Made in the AM.
00:58:20 --> 00:58:21 Ooh, we have to do that one.
00:58:21 --> 00:58:23 Yes, stay tuned for that.
00:58:23 --> 00:58:24 Yes.
00:58:24 --> 00:58:25 Yeah, that's interesting.
00:58:25 --> 00:58:26 I mean, yeah, this is my first time hearing...
00:58:27 --> 00:58:28 this whole album.
00:58:29 --> 00:58:30 Both of us.
00:58:30 --> 00:58:30 Yeah.
00:58:30 --> 00:58:32 And I do think it's strong overall.
00:58:32 --> 00:58:41 Like I said, their sound has developed very naturally and them going into this kind of 80s stadium anthem situation makes sense with some of the folk scene that's thrown in there too.
00:58:41 --> 00:58:45 Because, you know, Niall and Harry kind of do give that for sure.
00:58:45 --> 00:58:55 I think like I mentioned with some an earlier review, I do naturally gravitate towards the more pop songs like No Control, like Stockholm Syndrome.
00:58:55 --> 00:58:56 Like, so I think actually the last
00:58:56 --> 00:59:25 album i think resonated a bit more for me to be fair but i appreciate where they were going and and also just watching the live clips and stuff i can see why they went for this sound as well yeah so i think it's solid project it's just not necessarily for my personal taste all of it um but for them as a group i get it yes yeah you know i don't really know like discography because i've said it a couple times even in our last reviews with them um
00:59:26 --> 00:59:35 I was listening to K-pop at the time, so I don't have made in the AM to compare to where they don't have Zayn to hit those, where they don't have Zayn to hit those big moments.
00:59:35 --> 00:59:37 I'm like, where did everything go?
00:59:37 --> 00:59:38 So we don't have that family reference.
00:59:39 --> 00:59:43 However, I do appreciate that they went from like, there's a weird, not weird.
00:59:43 --> 00:59:45 They went from like this young juvenile, like,
00:59:46 --> 01:00:05 pop rock-ish written by grown men to actually becoming grown men being able to articulate and see what they actually want to say and then give line distribution to where they felt it made sense like everything feels a little bit more like we are finally found our sweet spot um i think i'm trying to think did i like the other album a little bit more
01:00:06 --> 01:00:06 I don't know.
01:00:06 --> 01:00:07 I like this one.
01:00:07 --> 01:00:09 I think I like Stadium Roth.
01:00:09 --> 01:00:12 I legit have the playlist of like a divorced dad.
01:00:12 --> 01:00:14 So this kind of does like slot right in.
01:00:16 --> 01:00:20 I do believe for me that everything about this album was centered on women.
01:00:20 --> 01:00:23 And I feel like at this point, I wish I would have gotten like...
01:00:25 --> 01:00:27 something about them being a group.
01:00:27 --> 01:00:31 We get that made in the AA because I do know that that single, I don't know if I can bring us down or hold us down, bring us down.
01:00:31 --> 01:00:32 Sorry.
01:00:33 --> 01:00:33 The learning.
01:00:33 --> 01:00:34 Drag me down.
01:00:34 --> 01:00:35 Drag me down.
01:00:35 --> 01:00:35 Yep.
01:00:36 --> 01:00:40 So I just feel like that's the only thing I was really missing was something I felt like about us.
01:00:41 --> 01:00:41 You know what I'm saying?
01:00:41 --> 01:00:43 So aside from that, solid.
01:00:44 --> 01:00:47 It fulfills a lot of like the romance books that I've read.
01:00:47 --> 01:00:50 So it's interesting to kind of like have a song for the books.
01:00:51 --> 01:00:52 But I love it.
01:00:53 --> 01:00:54 No, but I do like it.
01:00:54 --> 01:00:55 Will I play it again?
01:00:55 --> 01:00:56 Yeah, I could.
01:00:57 --> 01:01:01 Just not 18 or far.
01:01:01 --> 01:01:02 Sorry.
01:01:02 --> 01:01:04 UK, so as a final rating, I'll give it an eight.
01:01:05 --> 01:01:05 Eight.
