I don't.
Sound wise is nothing special.

I think the 1D songs are only good if the melody is really strong. Otherwise it is always so samey and gets boring due to lack of innovative ideas.

It sounds like a Maroon 5 song!

Their management is just trying to squeeze as much music and money out of them until they either crash or people don't care anymore. The song is very generic, lacks a lot of their old punch.

I think you will see writers/producers put in a lot more effort and creativity for Zayn's solo record which might be big.

Ughh-- hate that idea: at least wait until your band breaks up before you launch your "solo" career! You know-- the band that gave you success in the first place?

Some people might disagree cos actually their old punch is even more generic than this.

Wow, it's kind of shocking to me that with all that money behind them, this is the song someone thought was like really great or something? Especially when they have have something to prove right now (as a quartet)? Amazing.

I mean its not like the Rami/Carl/Savan songs were the most amazing pieces of music but their fanbase and the "general audience" find their earlier stuff better as it reflects in single/album sales.

They probably won't, if it were to happen they would have worked together on the 2nd or 3rd album.

Do you think we will get any Rami stuff on the new album?
I am kind of tired of the same old Bunetta etc. sounds. They need some more variety in general. Westlife had the Swedish and the UK team and that made their reportoire more interesting. (covers aside)

I don't know if someone posted this, but Zayn Malik signed with RCA.

Did you hear the song "What A Feeling" from the new OD album? What a tune.
Title: Re: One Direction - Drag me down (new single from new album)
Post by: turnaround on November 16, 2015, 10:57:58 PM
I bought the deluxe edition and completed the discography. (All deluxe editions  ;D)
"What a feeling" is nice, but my favourite is probably after a few spins still: "Love you goodbye"
