Maturing is realizing that 1D was not healthy for the members. They're the first celebrities I liked, and I still like them, but man they were messy. They're finally doing music on their own terms and I'm so happy for them.
I mean despite them having been together, they didn't do so willingly at first. they were chosen by Simone to perform together.. so the foundation just wasn't there from the beginning I guess..
Exactly. I recently got into them and I've talked about them to a friend of mine who also loves them. And we've talked about how scarily thin Zayn was, how exhausted they looked at times in interviews and concerts, how they performed sick and Niall even kept performing with an injured knee for F's sake. And they were putting out an album and tour literally every year when other artists usually sit on one album and tour for 2-3 maybe even more years. Its hard to be a fan yet realize the hell they went through while putting out the music we love so much
right and i rlly don’t want a reunion , and they don’t want it either and ppl need to realize that. they’re adults and 3/5 have kids and they’re not gonna be in the studio tg making the same shi again. they moved on, and so can directioners
I love them with all my heart. I’m a huge Directioner. But they were treated horribly and it wasn’t healthy. And I’m glad they’re doing somewhat better
You guys don't get it, Zayn announced he's leaving the group DAYS before they performed in South Africa and I had my ticket ready. I was in the TRENCHES
This news dropped just before the Manila show and when I tell you, Filipino fans lost their shit. We were the next stop, this was the FIRST time that 1D was finally coming to our country and then you tell us that Zayn isn't coming???
I avoided it until Niall solo career! Then I went back and was sad I missed it. It all seemed so entertaining, though the online fandom has taught me it's better to appreciate these things from a distance.
I like some of their solo stuff ( except Liam payne and Harry styles new album) but still could not have told u the first thing abt the mess that was this band bc them girls used to go crazy for that band and at 13 it was just a little much for me. I know the shit now bc looking back on deranged fandoms is always fun tho
Part of the reason I thankfully avoided the craze was because my borderline abusive ex best friend loved them and talked about them all the time and so I associate memories of them with her
Can’t believe you didn’t mention the global directioner meltdown over Louis and Zayn smoking weed in a van in Peru?!! It was like the world ended how many people were losing their minds over it.
I'm shocked you didn't mention the Adventurous Adventures Of One Direction...I remember my older sister being OBSESSED with that and she'd make me sit with her and watch it. I think what is concerning is the fact that it is unironically hilarious.
Tbh if you're a stalker/insider or just someone who pays attention you can see that Louis and Harry are not enemies and louis has managed to sneak harry onto his tour bus before 😭 so obviously they are in contact still
I've always been a Louis girl when I was a directioner but it honestly surprised me how well his solo career is going. We all knew that he was the main songwriter out of the boys and even though his solo albums aren't commercially successful, his fanbase is crazy dedicated. He is on his second world tour with tons of shows, he sells out arenas without a problem, has launched his own freaking festival and released a documentary about his career. Louis has always been looked over by non-directioners, but I'm just so happy to see him thriving in his own little "niche" : )
Actually that is so inspirational! He's doing his own thing, happy with it, has least drama, and people appreciate his work. I aspire to be that unbothered
his tour was the best moments of my life. i have always loved louis since day 1 and to see him selling out arenas now brings me so much happiness and makes me feel immensely proud
Imagine If you told the guys who invented the internet that the creation of their scientific project would indirectly lead to directioners hacking an airport security system so they could watch their faves at a Jamba Juice
@@caseyaonso4270 I need you to do this, but for disbanded/inactive kpop groups because oooooo the content. You will never run out of content. But you know. Approach with caution because there is that one girl who sent her "fave" a love letter written with her own period blood so. Yeah.
@@Sadie-rai Yes, and I don't think that's the only time it's been used... Kpop stans are kinda scary. Especially the ones that have the ability, time and money to violate the rules of privacy.
I will never forget the absolute chaos that ensued after it was announced that Louis was going to have a baby, and how the fandom was CONVINCED that Brianna had somehow trapped Louis with a pregnancy in order to ruin his and Harry/Eleanor's relationship. Some people were even sure the pregnancy was fake
There's also the Philippines concert on their On The Road Again tour, where Zayn didn't appear once at all. They explained that the guy was sick and couldn't perform and we were like "oh, alright! May he get well soon!" He left BEFORE THE FUCKING PHILIPPINES CONCERT AND IT WAS ANNOUNCED LITERALLY THE NEXT DAY
Oof...ang tagal na pala haha.. Naalala ko pa noong sikat na sikat sila na nafeature pa sila sa KMJS at sa isang episode ng Pepito Manaloto (impersonators nila, di nga lang kamukha😂). May rumors kasi nagsasabi na may falling out daw sila sa Thailand tas nag paalam daw si Zayn sa isang bandmate niya (na naging inspiration sa kanta nilang Walking in the Wind).
I remembered that lol. I like their songs but I'm not an avid fan. I feel so bad for the fans who went expecting the guys being complete coz I think that was their first concert in the Philippines (?)
if I had 10 cents for every Canadian commentary youtuber that uploaded a video on One Direction today, I'd have 20 cents. It's not a lot of money but it's weird that it happened twice
I think that one thing that was left out was the struggles that each of the boys had while they were in the band. Zayn with his eating disorder and threats against his actions or the FreePalestine tweet, Liam with his alcohol problem and the possibility of committing suicide in 2014 (the photo that was taken on top of the building), Niall with being body shamed along with him being treated badly by 1D management, Harry being harassed by people or being called a womanizer, Louis having to deal with the stress from Simon along feeling ignored and later on dealing with the death of his mother, writing 38 songs between 2013-2015 on those 3 albums to feel like he is a part of the band. How if they were to stay together, they would "kill each other". That the band was experiencing horrible things mentally and physically. Being forced to write songs in a matter of days because management forced them. They are always being followed and having videos taken of them from places that should be private and not seen by outsiders, The struggles they had while in this band is something that was missed from this, and I feel it's important to mention that when thinking of how messy this band was. Now don't get me wrong, they were amazing and had so many positive things, I love them, I still do, and will always have a small bit of hope they do a reunion tour, (or at least a reunion just as friends) and they did many things to contribute to society and bring a smile to people's faces, but they also struggled so much that when talking about 1D, these topics are often looked over when they are equally as important. I love one direction, but I also think this time in 2023 is their period of healing and reconnecting with the other band members. I also want to say that these are from the source, directly from the boys, or by the fans connecting the dots along the way.
Zayn suffered from racism and islamaphobia from the moment he joined 1D. When he was a Muslim People would ask him insensitive questions and mock him constantly, going as far as making extremist jokes and talking in Arabic to him even though he is not an Arab, he’s half Pakistani and only speaks a little bit of Urdu. Even after he said that he left the religion people still mention it to him. From all the hate, prejudice and misinformation being spread about him, there is no wonder why he had anxiety and issues with his image.(I also heard that he didn’t like 1D music direction and wanted to try something else). The free Palestine tweet that Zayn made was only recent. It wasn’t when he was in the band. Zayn’s then girlfriend Gigi is half Palestinian and her father had to flee his country so that he doesn’t get killed by Israelis. It’s so disgusting how people attacked him for that. I guess standing up for children that are getting killed is bad to them.
@@torilan2672 when you're in a group, people always have to label you, find the differences between you and the other members. anything that makes you stand out? BAM people are going to jump on that. If you're of a different ethnicity, race, religion, cultural background, religion... um also things like weight (like jesy being singled out in little mix) and so on... and i can't speak for what he felt or anything, it's not like i know him , but obviously zayn's experience of racism and discrimination would've added a whole other dimension to the nightmare of being in a world famous boyband that the other members wouldn't have had to deal with. always being singled out as the "other" while being in a band so unbelievably famous- like i can't even imagine. maybe feeling like you're on top of the world but somehow you still don't belong, or you're not accepted as much as the others? i mean i don't know i'm just speculating. but i would be very surprised if he didn't feel that way, at least a little.
As a directioner, yes I’m sad that they broke up. But Simon Cowell was a horrible manager, and they all went through so much. I’m glad that they are happier now.
I agree with you. Simon was a horrible manager. In the 1D days they were sometimes sad but kept it hidden but now they are so much happier and doing what they love and what they want. I am to a directioner and I miss the boys so much.
looking back at it i CANNOT believe we ever actually believed they were coming back after the "hiatus" LMAO . through the years it was very obvious how unhappy they were , mainly stemming from the simple fact that their own musical creativity was seriously limited . my directioner years feel like a fever dream honestly , but it's so fun to reminisce about how happy all their content made us . louis was such a strength to me in particular even after 1D when his mother and sister passed , i always admired his endurance and kindness . i'm glad i had those boys in my youth to bring me joy . i had 1D in childhood & now i have BTS in adulthood
The fact that some Directioners seriously believe that 1D will come back makes me shake my head. I became a fan of all the members after they all went solo. But let’s be honest: they won’t ever reunite. Do they seriously think they will sing their boyband pop songs? Especially Harry after he released „Harry’s House“? They are men in their 30s now and I honestly don’t understand why some Directioners still think they will come back. Of course Niall and Louis will say when asked that they will come back. They wouldn’t say „oh no, we’re not“. But we all know, they won’t and that’s totally fine. Let these men develop their own music and careers.
They were the ones who made the fake expectations that they will come back specially Niall and Harry. They were the ones who gave us the timeline of 18 months. So it's quite natural for the fans to wait for their comeback
back in the day i was sooo adamant to my mom that they would NEVER break up because they were all "best friends who loved each other" and when the hiatus came i was fully 21 years old still in denial telling her it's just a hiatus and she looked at me like i was insane
Watching the rise and fall of 1D in real time was INSANE. When you look back on it, so much happened in such a short amount of time. Imagine having a band come into fruition in and then fall apart in the span of 6 years? My fave running joke is that Act My Age was Zayn’s last straw.
Fall? Really? They're still #65 on Spotify and they haven't released music in 11 years. Directioners basically dictate Twitter trends & any time we want, we get things trending. Sometimes even on accident. 🤣🤣
@@drstylinson659 11 years? It’s only been like 6 years. AND the trend thing was like 2011-2017 the fandom isn’t powerful anymore. BTS fans are the new directioners as far as twitter trend goes.
I'm old enough to remember when the One Direction fandom went from quoting Taylor Swift songs in their fanfictions and tweets to HATING HER because she went on a few dates with Harry Styles.
@@rubykgarrett that’s not misogyny, that’s jealousy and envy. They don’t want competition. I know y’all like to use these buzz words but at least use them correctly.
@@LoveK1 they hated every woman they saw with any of these boys and would comments in their bodies and say other awful shit. when olivia was with harry people were telling her to go back to her kids as if thats all she was and all she was fit for; they reduced her to that. don’t try and tell me that’d not misogyny.
Re-Watching this after Liam's passing and I want to thank you for what you said about him. You are one of the only commentators who gave him kindness and credit. He did some silly things but you embraced it and was very light in your critiques when others were cruel and dismissive when they talked about him.
when i look back at videos/performances from 2015, i can’t believe nobody realized how miserable they looked 😭 every interview was just them looking like they had better places to be
tbh i think we noticed but we all so unhealthily relied on 1d as a source of happiness and mental stability (even tho being in fandom made me farrrr from stable) that we were able to enter a state of denial and pretend everything was still gonna be okay, even as miserable as they appeared
@@yutisima people did. I've seen tweets from that time. It's the same as with Liam right now. Some notice, some not, some will blast you if you mention that something can possibly be wrong...
the era of video diaries was a fever dream. the amount of times my friends and i would be talking about kevin a plastic bird or saying "no jimmy protested" were absurd and it pains me to think about
To this day I still think about Kevin when looking at pigeons from time to time. And I can never forget the sound of Niall giggling at literally everything the others did.
Some other things that happened in the fandom 1. Elenour being a "beard" and just there to keep Louis closeted. 2. Babygate (Freddie not being Louis' child) I mean just look at him, he definitely is his child. (There are people who still believe in that) 3. Someone finding out their penis sizes. 4. People went from loving Taylor Swift, to hating her just because she dated Harry. 5. NIALL IN JAPAN 6. People hating on Zayn because of his ethnicity. 7. TW: People cutting themselves to bring Zayn back. 8. and the fight between Directioners and ARMY. (please don't fight about it again, thanks)
directioners and army fighting is so funny to me cs i used to be a directioner and i'm currently an army. They both had/have their success and both will go in history books. It's just so crazy to me how fanwars between those 2 fandoms still exists while both groups showed their respect and support for each other (harry taking a picture with some bts members backstage at his concert. I mean nobody expected that) So like where does it make sense?
@@swyismine It doesn't. For me, it's always been (some) toxic ARMY members coming at Directioners. I know a lot of BTS fans in real life and even they are embarrassed because of the toxic ones. They honestly just wanna have fun and spread love for their favourite band. Can't say that for everyone though :/
I’m 20 now (the age that the members were during their peak) and I have to say I admire how well they handled everything. I know a few years down the line, everything fell apart (as it should’ve) but regardless they pushed through. If I were to be put under that amount of pressure at my age I’d lose my mind
I’m about to turn 22 and can barely handle a little handful of stress. I really admire how well they handled it. They definitely felt the stress and they’ve spoken about it in interviews after the breakup and it sounds awful. I can’t believe they were able to keep going for so long without showing the effects of all that stress. I wouldn’t have been able to handle that if I tried.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention anything about the girlfriends or any of that drama. There was so much surrounding girls they were seen with. Also, the Nial/Ed Sherran/ Ellie Goulding story.
Also fans calling other fans "carrots" meaning they weren't true fans, such a weird time! My best friend got called a carrot in middle school by another girl in our class lmaooo the disrespect! At the time we were pissed about it
@@Funkyfreak1girl omg i forgot about that!! Wasn’t it cause Louis asked the fans to send him carrots or something? I wasn’t a directioner for a long time but this rings a bell lol
We went from 1D fans convinced of Larry, to Swifties convinced of Gaylor, and Timmy Chalamet fans convinced that Kylie Jenner “stalked and manipulated” him into dating her. These “fans” probably should be discussing this with their therapists.
I feel like there are still people who blame Zayn for the break up of the group, but I rarely see people talk about the racism he faced being the only member of color in 1D.
@@kaylanewis5392from what i remember, most of the racist comments had to do with him being a terrorist. As a result, you can find pictures of zayn wearing a tshirt saying “i’m not a terrorist”
I think it's pretty terrible that people (like grown ass men) blamed Perrie for Zayn leaving the band which they think broke up the group,rather than acknowledging the appaling and inexusable racism and islamofobia he experienced. (so I COMPLETLEY agree but wanted to add that a lot of hate and blame was directed at people who didn't deserve it which is rarely acknowledged)
I'm just gonna say that I'll be forever grateful with my directioner era cause I was fully convinced one day I'll meet them, that I decided it was time to actually learn English. And, since I didn't have money, I used their songs, interviews and etc as study plan/teaching materials.
Literally the only reason I’m in fourth year of uni in the UK right now is because I /needed/ to understand and know all the drama going on lmaooo Can’t believe we all had the same intrusive thought that worked out 💀
When zayn left, I was having an awesome day at school. I had just started dating my long time crush, life was amazing. I walked to the gas station before I came home and got a slushie as a special lil treat and when I walked in and sat down on the couch, my sister turned on like E! News and it was breaking news 😭 I sat there sadly sipping my slushie and violently pouting until I broke tf down, said nothing to my sister and went to my room. I called my boyfriend and cried to him on the phone for two hours before passing tf out for 15 hours 😂😂 shout out to my bf for staying w me after that fiasco and never forget 🫡🫡
I lost it at "The fuck is a chonce?" amazing clip. I actually wouldn't mind an even deeper dive into their drama. I knew of them and liked a few singles, but I wasn't a directioner.
i was way too deep into the fandom for 5 years and a half so to say that this video brought back memories would be an understatement. but honestly now i just lowkey want a reunion simply for the mess.
Historically, bands do this once they're in their 50's & want to feel cool again. They bring their wives & kids & tell everyone how long they've been sober or clean. I'm 67. I've seen this happen for decades. LOL.
I think Liam struggled a lot with having to let go of the 1D past. He had the group built around him and when the rest of the group wanted to go separate ways, he didn’t want to let go.
I’m not sure that’s entirely accurate. I think that the group was built around him, but he’s the one band member that altered his voice to suit the aesthetics of the band. He also sang the most during their live tours, trust me when they went on hiatus he needed it as much as the others. Although like Louis when they went on hiatus he believed that they’ll be back in 2 years. He only realised that wouldn’t be the case years later, plus he couldn’t narrow down his solo sound. That’s why it seems like he held onto the band reuniting more than the others.
@@debrasnipes7431 i think just like Casey said, it was meant for Liam to be the "leader"of the group (Nicole Scherzinger even said so in the video where they are putting them together) because he was strongest in the beginning, he had the confidence, the voice and the stage presence. At that time all the other guys had one but not the other. The group was meant to be center around Liam but in the end the fans chose Harry as the stand out.
@@debrasnipes7431. The band WAS formed around Liam. After his claims to Jake Paul regarding that, I really looked into it and I found out that he was right. Many statements made by Simon indicate that. Liam definitely had the best audition, and the best voice out of all the boys. It’s too bad that he wasn’t chosen as a solo finalist, but then he might not have made it, and we would never have had 1D. Simon definitely formed 1D to keep Liam, and right from judges’ house on, he was given the lead voice position, that staying the same for the first 2 1/2 yrs, when the lead varied a bit.
You can't Deny the fact that when you first discovered one direction they looked perfect, everything about them was so perfect that you'd never even think about their possible reality. It had to be this many years for everything to gradually unveil in front of us
Meaning no disrespect--in the 2010s there were better-looking more artistically & musically talented lads in my 6th Form College, and none of them were 10s or even 8-9s either.
I was a HARDCORE directioner if u will, from video diaries-to fanfics-to collecting "merch"-to living vicariously through concert clips & i could say that it was a fever dream
@@crystalokoli join the Kpop fandom. You pretty much get to relive all of that excitement but have the money to feed into your obsessions since you’re an adult
@Louis Kingsta it takes a little bit of time when you’re not running off of the pure hormone fumes from being a young teen. I respect your experience but I’m just hoping to gently encourage you to try again since I’m having so much fun with it
The flower crown edits oh my god 🫣 My dad bought a printer in that same era and I spent a whole day making and printing binder covers that I thought were so cool 💀
I'm glad you brought up that Liam was popular at the beginning, during the xfactor era he was definitely pushed as the front man. I think a lot of people don't know that Liam had already auditioned for xfactor 2 years before and was put in the group bc Simon saw something in him, it's not incorrect for Liam to have assumed 1D was created to help push him as a solo artist.
Some people think that he might have been pushed because of how his ex is reacting it might be true she was originally saying that she helps him when he feels bad or feels like he's about to do something to him self then she turns around and says she started to block his texts
me too! i knew who 1D was in the mid-2010s but wasn’t into them, yet i read so many wattpad fanfics related to 1D 😂 i learnt all their names & their personalities, heck even their 🍆 size (which was something i didn’t care about but was in a few stories)
Learned english entirely due to one direction. Now im doing my masters degree in english after finishing my bachelors in english as well. Thank you soldiers
I cannot stress how much my life revolved around one direction during those years. My teacher let me go home early on March 25th because of how devastated I was, I had diarys upon diarys full of drawings, fan fictions and love notes to one direction. Every inch of my space was coated in one direction. I was a fucking psychopath and I miss those unhinged years
I was busy with homework on the 25th and didn’t go on social media all day so I didn’t end up hearing about it until my friends broke the news to me at school the next day. For the first 15 minutes or so I thought they were joking with me because they had a tendency to pull pranks, but then I searched it up and realized they weren’t lying. My friend and I sat next to each other in class, I think it was math and we were both crying and the teacher came up to us multiple times to ask if we were alright. We just said we were fine because we didn’t want to talk about it. That was the saddest day I had ever experienced at that age and I seriously thought that worse pain than what I was feeling was impossible. I was so dramatic I cried every day for a week.
As another OG Liam girl, I’m also very disappointed. He kind of started with the biggest leg up and then did nothing with it. He could’ve gone into producing/songwriting. He could’ve jumped into the business end of the music industry. Instead we got…LP1
You guys clearly aren't supporting him as you're saying you are. Liam went through some really deep shit these past few years. He's coming back to his true self and works very hard to separate himself from what brings him down. Also, his music does not reflect his personality. It's literally art, self-expression, and I think it says a lot about his mental state back then
you guys were the shittiest liam fans. you shouldve supported him at his lowest. he expected you guys to be on his side but instead you guys hated him even more
in reference to lp1 i agree it’s def not his best work but it makes me so sad that he bought a lot of the songs instead of writing them himself, he obviously has talent as seen in his songwriting in 1d but i wish we got to see more of it. also vocally, he has such an amazing range but for the most part it wasn’t really present in lp1. he’s really an amazingly talented and good guy, he was just going through a lot and had a lot of pressure on him to be different and put something new out at the time i think.
Louis genuinely did think the haitus would be short, he said the others left him hanging recently in an interview and so he waited to release music. Also Louis has a movie coming out soon!!!
i just saw his movie a couple weeks ago… absolutely loved it! he’s my favorite singer and i’m so proud of what he has accomplished and is doing, he deserves only the best :,)💌
Niall also thought it would be short lived. One reason he went off back packing for a couple of months. Both he and Louis were devastated at the band breaking up. Louis did say at one time that he and Niall were hugging and crying behind the scenes. They are the most similar of the boys
the fact that I was there since What Makes You Beautiful era and remember almost all of this is insane. The whole Zayn leaving has been etched into my memory because I practically remember every detail of that day. This video has been a fun, and painful, walk down memory lane.
in 2014, when I was 15, I wore a shirt that said “it’s a snake habitat turn around” to my one direction concert to sort out the real fans, who naturally would run up to me and we would be best friends. no one did.
I remember being so proud of Zayn for being the first to say "enough" & leaving. maybe he could have done it differently, more gentle to the fans but I was happy for him, because he chose himself. And I love his solo music, you can finally hear Him and literally His mind, beautiful. But I'm always gonna genuinely love "Four", such a good album. in general I think them splitting was for the best for everyone of them.
I honestly don’t blame Ho May all. I wasn’t a die hard fan of one direction, casual listener but as I realized what happened after they part ways and their story. It’s clear Zayn wasn’t treated fairly by fans and faced a lot of racist comments. Not to mention I think the group’s own mismanagement was harmful on all of them. Being as a group while a good experience for them, was also probably rily hard for all of them mentally and physically. Didn’t want of them struggle with their body? Stress?
Yes and I know it was a hard decision for him to make too leave back then but I know he did it for him and his mental health and I’m so proud of him 💜.
omg then can you imagine my 1d concert was on 25 March 2015 in Indonesia and the announcement was an HOUR after the show finished??? world was in crisis
I was in my first and hopefully only toxic relationship when Zayn left. I was 15 and I had just fought with my boyfriend. I was mad at him but the moment I read One Direction's post I immediately forgot about him leaving me or staying. It didnt matter anymore because Zayn was out of One Direction, at that point any man could hurt me.
The comparison of remembering where you were when Zayn left to 9/11 is SENDING me because it’s so insanely accurate. (I was doing a project for one of my art classes in the art building during my sophomore year of college and my project became significantly moodier after I saw the news)
every time I hear a song the memories come rushing back and that was honestly the peak of my life. Im not kidding. I’m 25 and waiting to feel that same high again 😅
lets be honest the reason why 1D got even a chance to start was because of their looks, they did work on their talent later and deserved the success they got but at the beginning the only way you can justify that they made it there was looks.
"They had a double decker bus, Primark suits, and a dream" No that took me tf out 😂💀 I vividly remember living the "Key of Awesome" parodies of their music un-ironically also. What a time to be alive.
I think Liam's audition is better than the others' because he had auditioned the year before and got notes on his performance. I don't believe he got very far the year before they were formed though
im not even a directioner but had a close friend who was, and i remember where we were when this all went down, outside the school gymnasium in the afternoon
I learned in psychology that we have things called “flashbulb memories” where we remember everything that happened in a certain moment, a lot of people have 9/11 as theirs. Mine is Zayn leaving one direction. Zayn leaving was literally my 9/11
Me too. At home after a long school day in front of my computer screaming noooo falling to my knees in the dark. I had JUST decided to stan after years of being a hater after I realized their music wasn't that bad. I guess you could say it's my fault.
Too bad his 2nd album wasnt up to expectations and was too long for people's liking. Also no promo. But in terms of quality he brings out the best. Harry's radio friendly, Niall's genre is likeable but sometimes cheesy music throws me off but put into alot of effort, Louis practicing his songwriting skills & doing what he likes which he'll improve overtime, Liam's generic no music direction and originality. Though to my surprised with the general public in stores, restaurants and such alot of the group's music/Niall's music has been more played often.
@@TheSkinnyZ He got actually the best solo discography among them if I'm being honest, he's just not as recognized because he isn't interested in fame anymore. He will never have a proper tour, or promo, he said a lot he didn't wanted to and we cannot blame him considering how much he suffered in there.
Zayn's music is my go to spot every day. His voice puts me at ease. Harry's music is my daily pep talk. He brings me alive. Niall's music is so soothing. Liam's are catchy but cringy at times. As for Louis, I can't enjoy it cuz its overun by Larry's and their dumb conspiracy theories.
My high school gf had a directioner phase, and I, weird little emo-theatre kid-gremlin hybrid that I was, decided to serenade her with little things once. Important note that this was also during the glee era and our friend group decided that singing to each other at school was appropriate and not annoying at all. It was just as cringe and you can imagine.
LITERALLY SAAAMEE!!! I got into 1d when I was around 8 (and despite that I studied English at school its literally thanks to them that I speak the way I do now) because so was my sister into them and those songs made me realize I loved singing as well as helped me with English!
Same here. When I was a kid speaking in English was hard for me but when I found out about One Direction and when I started listening to there music it improved my English skills and now I am doing so better with the subject than before and I can speak in English so much better. Thanks you one direction for everything.
The day the band broke up I was sitting in math class and a girl who was obsessed with the band stopped the whole class for 15 minutes because she started crying about Zayn leaving. Like thanks for stalling the class, but girlie...
Oh my god…I just remember hearing girls *literally* screaming and some crying really, really hard in the middle of class after they got notifications from twitter…my friend’s mom had to come pick her up from school bc she was a wreck. It was pandemonium.
When the zayn leaving announcement came out, i literally rotted in my dark bedroom for the entire day just sobbing. Why were we all all so dramatic LMAO
I was and always will be a Niall girly. I remember the #letniallsing I wrote it on a piece of binder paper and taped it to my door so anyone who came into my room knew where my priorities lied. My mom and I are going to see Niall next year on The Show tour! In my mind, Niall and Harry have had the most success after 1D
They definitely have had the most success, which makes me ecstatic because Niall has always been my fav , Zane would have probably been more successful than Niall if he kept on making music since he is so easily marketable
@@tatumgallahair7729he’s made 4 albums in the 10 years since he left lol… he doesn’t deserve other people’s success, he literally avoided doing any work. i think harry and niall are the only good members and the only ones who actually get the credit they deserve.
1D's "hiatus" still affects us all today. A group even tries to go on hiatus and people are CONVINCED they won't come back. 1D are the exception not the norm 💀
it's crazy how you never mentioned that one interview where the interviewer went into 'labour' and fans started awwwwing harry for being a good 'father' and booing naill for sitting on the couch 🧍♂️😭
Niall during viva lavida always cracks me up because his weird hand gesture is exactly what my elementary school music teacher would do to make us sing louder
we can cringe all we want but we never were as happy as we were during our 1d stan era and I'm sure most of us couldn't find yet another artist or band to be obsessed over and dedicate our twitter account to. everyday I wake up and think deeply on the fact that I got to live during that time and in a way I think I'm the most privileged girl alive no kidding
To be fair, the reason a lot of 1D fangirls couldnt find another band or artist to obsess over again is probably because you finished going through puberty, your hormones weren’t out of control anymore, and you grew out of the desire to absolutely obsess over a group of extremely average white boys (Ik zayn isn’t white but you get my point) 💀
@@lilikazhimomi9822 I only never listen to made in the am bc I at the moment I had the feeling that they were not coming back so it felt like 1d was already over
@@christygunwaldsen3849Algorithms are making this video pop up in people's feed, whether or not they know it's resurfaced since Liam jumped off a balcony in drug-induced state a few days ago.
I'm more a BSB age, but I was a middle school teacher when 1D was popular and I saw a girl literally cry talking about how much she loved Liam. They were intense times 😂
Fun Fact the guy who got "Just can't let her go" is not just some random UA-camr, but a Finnish singer named Isac Elliot. He even ended up opening for 1D when they performed in Finland
It's so crazy walking down fandom memory lane and realizing how fandom culture really hasn't changed much besides the past couple years. Like the pandemic rlly slapped fandom culture into shape and we finally started acting like respectful humans- well most of us.
Idk man I think it’s gotten worse on some levels. Maybe not on harassment levels like they did to one direction, but it’s a lot more hateful online and slandering of characters
I was never a full on directioner, but I remember a friend of mine getting deep into the Harry and Louis ship and absolutely screaming when it was announced that Louis was having a kid. Again, I didn't know what the big deal was but she claimed that some girl was claiming Louis knocked her up which is impossible since he was gay and in a relationship with Harry. The insanity
I felt bad when louis said it makes him uncomfortable in a interview and how it affects his wife and kids . Like the insanity and delusionality of these people is crazy
The guy who got the song just cant let her go was not only an youtuber he was one of the biggest Swedish/Finnish teen pop idols😂(his name is Isaac Elliot)
I wasn't a listener of 1D even though I was in their target demographic (like many other commenters), but I too remember the day that they announced Zayn was leaving. It seemed like the internet had collapsed and I followed the drama closely despite only knowing one song. I should've let myself be a teenage girl and enjoy teenage girly things and not have been afraid of being mocked for it.
I was a 1D fan and though I was sad, my initial thoughts were either "it isn't the end of the world" and "good for him" cause he faced a lot of racism being the only non-white member and like the other guys,didn't want to join in the first place but used it as an advantage to a solo career.
this brought back so many memories man.. my 1d stan era was my cringe era 😭 but i do fondly look back on it for the friends i’ve made & nostalgia purposes. now i have an excuse to mess up my spotify stats & re-listen to their whole discography 🙇🏽♀️
it’s honestly so funny looking back at everything as an adult, but it was genuinely such a fun part of growing up for me. realizing the kind of turmoil they dealt with at insanely young ages does make me glad that things ended fairly early. i also don’t really want them to get back together for countless reasons but would love if 5-10 years from now they did a little appearance or something for the old directioners to reminisce
1D was so messy, but not on the same way as 5H. The boys were close but fans truly didn’t know boundaries on so many levels. Larry Stylinson, stalking, bombarding them at hotels, etc etc. That’s not even talking about the media and their management. They got so big so quick that they never truly got to enjoy being a band and making music together before becoming “the world’s biggest boyband”
you make me feel seen in a way i’ve never felt before bc no one talks about this stuff anymore like no one knows the epic highs and lows of waiting to see if your favorite boyband member gets assassinated or not
as an ex-directioner, this brought back so much nostalgia, they were 5 great years tbh. but you missed the adventurous adventures of one direction lmao

Nicole S. put them together.
Maturing is realizing that 1D was not healthy for the members. They're the first celebrities I liked, and I still like them, but man they were messy. They're finally doing music on their own terms and I'm so happy for them.
Fr. Syco was abusive af and they were just kids at the time.
I mean despite them having been together, they didn't do so willingly at first. they were chosen by Simone to perform together.. so the foundation just wasn't there from the beginning I guess..
Exactly. I recently got into them and I've talked about them to a friend of mine who also loves them. And we've talked about how scarily thin Zayn was, how exhausted they looked at times in interviews and concerts, how they performed sick and Niall even kept performing with an injured knee for F's sake. And they were putting out an album and tour literally every year when other artists usually sit on one album and tour for 2-3 maybe even more years. Its hard to be a fan yet realize the hell they went through while putting out the music we love so much
right and i rlly don’t want a reunion , and they don’t want it either and ppl need to realize that. they’re adults and 3/5 have kids and they’re not gonna be in the studio tg making the same shi again. they moved on, and so can directioners
I love them with all my heart. I’m a huge Directioner. But they were treated horribly and it wasn’t healthy. And I’m glad they’re doing somewhat better
You guys don't get it, Zayn announced he's leaving the group DAYS before they performed in South Africa and I had my ticket ready. I was in the TRENCHES
Same with OTRA in Milwaukee, it was the fact I would never get to see the five boys all together 😢
I was devastated too. It was so sad.
I felt like I was in mourning omg 😭 will never forget that day
they announced it a day after OTRA in Indonesia. i remember they look rather sad during the concert and I wonder why
This news dropped just before the Manila show and when I tell you, Filipino fans lost their shit. We were the next stop, this was the FIRST time that 1D was finally coming to our country and then you tell us that Zayn isn't coming???
As someone who somehow avoided the 1D craze despite being the target audience, I'm excited to hear the story coming from an expert
I avoided it until Niall solo career! Then I went back and was sad I missed it. It all seemed so entertaining, though the online fandom has taught me it's better to appreciate these things from a distance.
Same like i avoided 1D but then BTS came along so I caved in
I like some of their solo stuff ( except Liam payne and Harry styles new album) but still could not have told u the first thing abt the mess that was this band bc them girls used to go crazy for that band and at 13 it was just a little much for me. I know the shit now bc looking back on deranged fandoms is always fun tho
Part of the reason I thankfully avoided the craze was because my borderline abusive ex best friend loved them and talked about them all the time and so I associate memories of them with her
it's such a coincidence that i feel like they planned it, and that's the girlboss energy we need in 2023
The leaked phone call about the girls going to their room gets me everytime because Zayn sounds like a scammer asking for your credit card number.

What???????!!!!
Can’t believe you didn’t mention the global directioner meltdown over Louis and Zayn smoking weed in a van in Peru?!! It was like the world ended how many people were losing their minds over it.
Ok now that is a memory you just unlocked for me lmao
The funniest thing was that I was a little bit of an older fan so when this video came out I was in college and I was like… we’re upset about this? 😂
I remember that
"chicken in Chile" comes to mind
as a peruvian, i was just astounded and kinda proud that they had done this in my country
I'm shocked you didn't mention the Adventurous Adventures Of One Direction...I remember my older sister being OBSESSED with that and she'd make me sit with her and watch it. I think what is concerning is the fact that it is unironically hilarious.

@@antidave found the larry
I've always been a Louis girl when I was a directioner but it honestly surprised me how well his solo career is going. We all knew that he was the main songwriter out of the boys and even though his solo albums aren't commercially successful, his fanbase is crazy dedicated. He is on his second world tour with tons of shows, he sells out arenas without a problem, has launched his own freaking festival and released a documentary about his career.
Louis has always been looked over by non-directioners, but I'm just so happy to see him thriving in his own little "niche" : )
Louis is the best, love him
Actually that is so inspirational! He's doing his own thing, happy with it, has least drama, and people appreciate his work. I aspire to be that unbothered
Gworl. HE ATE WITH “NO CONTROL”. I wish him all the best
his tour was the best moments of my life. i have always loved louis since day 1 and to see him selling out arenas now brings me so much happiness and makes me feel immensely proud
post one direction i stayed a solo louie. his albums are sooo good
Imagine If you told the guys who invented the internet that the creation of their scientific project would indirectly lead to directioners hacking an airport security system so they could watch their faves at a Jamba Juice

@Casey Aonso as it should be
I will never forget the absolute chaos that ensued after it was announced that Louis was going to have a baby, and how the fandom was CONVINCED that Brianna had somehow trapped Louis with a pregnancy in order to ruin his and Harry/Eleanor's relationship. Some people were even sure the pregnancy was fake
They were even proof about it. It was crazy times
Some still call his kid fake. Twitter is a wild place
omg not #babygate
remember the picture where he was holding the baby and the way people were doing investigative work to "prove" it was edited
It's was and still is. There was never any pregnancy
There's also the Philippines concert on their On The Road Again tour, where Zayn didn't appear once at all. They explained that the guy was sick and couldn't perform and we were like "oh, alright! May he get well soon!"
He left BEFORE THE FUCKING PHILIPPINES CONCERT AND IT WAS ANNOUNCED LITERALLY THE NEXT DAY
Oof...ang tagal na pala haha..
Naalala ko pa noong sikat na sikat sila na nafeature pa sila sa KMJS at sa isang episode ng Pepito Manaloto (impersonators nila, di nga lang kamukha😂).
May rumors kasi nagsasabi na may falling out daw sila sa Thailand tas nag paalam daw si Zayn sa isang bandmate niya (na naging inspiration sa kanta nilang Walking in the Wind).

My first thought as well!
This is my Infinity War and endgame
GIRL I JUST CAME FROM THERELOLLL thinking the same thing
Fr they were right next to each other in my subscriptions
I think that one thing that was left out was the struggles that each of the boys had while they were in the band. Zayn with his eating disorder and threats against his actions or the FreePalestine tweet, Liam with his alcohol problem and the possibility of committing suicide in 2014 (the photo that was taken on top of the building), Niall with being body shamed along with him being treated badly by 1D management, Harry being harassed by people or being called a womanizer, Louis having to deal with the stress from Simon along feeling ignored and later on dealing with the death of his mother, writing 38 songs between 2013-2015 on those 3 albums to feel like he is a part of the band. How if they were to stay together, they would "kill each other". That the band was experiencing horrible things mentally and physically. Being forced to write songs in a matter of days because management forced them. They are always being followed and having videos taken of them from places that should be private and not seen by outsiders, The struggles they had while in this band is something that was missed from this, and I feel it's important to mention that when thinking of how messy this band was. Now don't get me wrong, they were amazing and had so many positive things, I love them, I still do, and will always have a small bit of hope they do a reunion tour, (or at least a reunion just as friends) and they did many things to contribute to society and bring a smile to people's faces, but they also struggled so much that when talking about 1D, these topics are often looked over when they are equally as important. I love one direction, but I also think this time in 2023 is their period of healing and reconnecting with the other band members. I also want to say that these are from the source, directly from the boys, or by the fans connecting the dots along the way.
This comment deserves more recognition!!
THIS COMMENT. W tbh ❤
Zayn suffered from racism and islamaphobia from the moment he joined 1D. When he was a Muslim People would ask him insensitive questions and mock him constantly, going as far as making extremist jokes and talking in Arabic to him even though he is not an Arab, he’s half Pakistani and only speaks a little bit of Urdu. Even after he said that he left the religion people still mention it to him. From all the hate, prejudice and misinformation being spread about him, there is no wonder why he had anxiety and issues with his image.(I also heard that he didn’t like 1D music direction and wanted to try something else).
The free Palestine tweet that Zayn made was only recent. It wasn’t when he was in the band. Zayn’s then girlfriend Gigi is half Palestinian and her father had to flee his country so that he doesn’t get killed by Israelis.
It’s so disgusting how people attacked him for that. I guess standing up for children that are getting killed is bad to them.
@@torilan2672 when you're in a group, people always have to label you, find the differences between you and the other members. anything that makes you stand out? BAM people are going to jump on that. If you're of a different ethnicity, race, religion, cultural background, religion... um also things like weight (like jesy being singled out in little mix) and so on... and i can't speak for what he felt or anything, it's not like i know him , but obviously zayn's experience of racism and discrimination would've added a whole other dimension to the nightmare of being in a world famous boyband that the other members wouldn't have had to deal with. always being singled out as the "other" while being in a band so unbelievably famous- like i can't even imagine. maybe feeling like you're on top of the world but somehow you still don't belong, or you're not accepted as much as the others? i mean i don't know i'm just speculating. but i would be very surprised if he didn't feel that way, at least a little.
Thank you great comment thanks for defending them ❤
As a directioner, yes I’m sad that they broke up. But Simon Cowell was a horrible manager, and they all went through so much. I’m glad that they are happier now.
Exactly
I agree with you. Simon was a horrible manager. In the 1D days they were sometimes sad but kept it hidden but now they are so much happier and doing what they love and what they want. I am to a directioner and I miss the boys so much.
looking back at it i CANNOT believe we ever actually believed they were coming back after the "hiatus" LMAO . through the years it was very obvious how unhappy they were , mainly stemming from the simple fact that their own musical creativity was seriously limited . my directioner years feel like a fever dream honestly , but it's so fun to reminisce about how happy all their content made us . louis was such a strength to me in particular even after 1D when his mother and sister passed , i always admired his endurance and kindness . i'm glad i had those boys in my youth to bring me joy . i had 1D in childhood & now i have BTS in adulthood
they're still on hiatus technically 😓
The fact that some Directioners seriously believe that 1D will come back makes me shake my head. I became a fan of all the members after they all went solo.
But let’s be honest: they won’t ever reunite. Do they seriously think they will sing their boyband pop songs? Especially Harry after he released „Harry’s House“?
They are men in their 30s now and I honestly don’t understand why some Directioners still think they will come back. Of course Niall and Louis will say when asked that they will come back. They wouldn’t say „oh no, we’re not“. But we all know, they won’t and that’s totally fine. Let these men develop their own music and careers.
They were the ones who made the fake expectations that they will come back specially Niall and Harry. They were the ones who gave us the timeline of 18 months. So it's quite natural for the fans to wait for their comeback
back in the day i was sooo adamant to my mom that they would NEVER break up because they were all "best friends who loved each other" and when the hiatus came i was fully 21 years old still in denial telling her it's just a hiatus and she looked at me like i was insane
from 1D to BTS? girl that is not that far of a jump 😂
Watching the rise and fall of 1D in real time was INSANE. When you look back on it, so much happened in such a short amount of time. Imagine having a band come into fruition in and then fall apart in the span of 6 years?
My fave running joke is that Act My Age was Zayn’s last straw.
Fall? Really? They're still #65 on Spotify and they haven't released music in 11 years. Directioners basically dictate Twitter trends & any time we want, we get things trending. Sometimes even on accident. 🤣🤣

3. Someone finding out their penis sizes.

5. NIALL IN JAPAN
6. People hating on Zayn because of his ethnicity.
7. TW: People cutting themselves to bring Zayn back.

It's just so crazy to me how fanwars between those 2 fandoms still exists while both groups showed their respect and support for each other (harry taking a picture with some bts members backstage at his concert. I mean nobody expected that) So like where does it make sense?
I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT NIALL IN 🇯🇵 LMAO also somebody hacking an airport security system where the boys were at..
@@swyismine It doesn't. For me, it's always been (some) toxic ARMY members coming at Directioners. I know a lot of BTS fans in real life and even they are embarrassed because of the toxic ones. They honestly just wanna have fun and spread love for their favourite band. Can't say that for everyone though :/
I’m 20 now (the age that the members were during their peak) and I have to say I admire how well they handled everything. I know a few years down the line, everything fell apart (as it should’ve) but regardless they pushed through. If I were to be put under that amount of pressure at my age I’d lose my mind
I’m about to turn 22 and can barely handle a little handful of stress. I really admire how well they handled it. They definitely felt the stress and they’ve spoken about it in interviews after the breakup and it sounds awful. I can’t believe they were able to keep going for so long without showing the effects of all that stress. I wouldn’t have been able to handle that if I tried.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention anything about the girlfriends or any of that drama. There was so much surrounding girls they were seen with. Also, the Nial/Ed Sherran/ Ellie Goulding story.
Omg elaborate now I'm interested hahaha we need a part 2
Also fans calling other fans "carrots" meaning they weren't true fans, such a weird time! My best friend got called a carrot in middle school by another girl in our class lmaooo the disrespect! At the time we were pissed about it

@@kaylanewis5392from what i remember, most of the racist comments had to do with him being a terrorist. As a result, you can find pictures of zayn wearing a tshirt saying “i’m not a terrorist”
I think it's pretty terrible that people (like grown ass men) blamed Perrie for Zayn leaving the band which they think broke up the group,rather than acknowledging the appaling and inexusable racism and islamofobia he experienced. (so I COMPLETLEY agree but wanted to add that a lot of hate and blame was directed at people who didn't deserve it which is rarely acknowledged)
I'm just gonna say that I'll be forever grateful with my directioner era cause I was fully convinced one day I'll meet them, that I decided it was time to actually learn English. And, since I didn't have money, I used their songs, interviews and etc as study plan/teaching materials.
That is smart lol. Fangirling helped me learn english too

Omg me tooooo ❤
Literally the only reason I’m in fourth year of uni in the UK right now is because I /needed/ to understand and know all the drama going on lmaooo
Can’t believe we all had the same intrusive thought that worked out 💀
@@saphia7158 girl but you made it somehow. You live in our fandom's motherland.
When zayn left, I was having an awesome day at school. I had just started dating my long time crush, life was amazing. I walked to the gas station before I came home and got a slushie as a special lil treat and when I walked in and sat down on the couch, my sister turned on like E! News and it was breaking news 😭 I sat there sadly sipping my slushie and violently pouting until I broke tf down, said nothing to my sister and went to my room. I called my boyfriend and cried to him on the phone for two hours before passing tf out for 15 hours 😂😂 shout out to my bf for staying w me after that fiasco and never forget 🫡🫡
Sad but cute lol
It shows what a great guy he is love your story
I lost it at "The fuck is a chonce?" amazing clip. I actually wouldn't mind an even deeper dive into their drama. I knew of them and liked a few singles, but I wasn't a directioner.
i was way too deep into the fandom for 5 years and a half so to say that this video brought back memories would be an understatement. but honestly now i just lowkey want a reunion simply for the mess.
Historically, bands do this once they're in their 50's & want to feel cool again. They bring their wives & kids & tell everyone how long they've been sober or clean. I'm 67. I've seen this happen for decades. LOL.
I was in the fandom for 3 years and then checked out after their last album.

I think Liam struggled a lot with having to let go of the 1D past. He had the group built around him and when the rest of the group wanted to go separate ways, he didn’t want to let go.
I’m not sure that’s entirely accurate. I think that the group was built around him, but he’s the one band member that altered his voice to suit the aesthetics of the band. He also sang the most during their live tours, trust me when they went on hiatus he needed it as much as the others. Although like Louis when they went on hiatus he believed that they’ll be back in 2 years. He only realised that wouldn’t be the case years later, plus he couldn’t narrow down his solo sound. That’s why it seems like he held onto the band reuniting more than the others.
It makes sense to cos he was so young when the group started that was like a majority of his life
The group was NOT built around Liam. lolol
@@debrasnipes7431 i think just like Casey said, it was meant for Liam to be the "leader"of the group (Nicole Scherzinger even said so in the video where they are putting them together) because he was strongest in the beginning, he had the confidence, the voice and the stage presence. At that time all the other guys had one but not the other. The group was meant to be center around Liam but in the end the fans chose Harry as the stand out.
@@debrasnipes7431. The band WAS formed around Liam.
After his claims to Jake Paul regarding that, I really looked into it and I found out that he was right. Many statements made by Simon indicate that.
Liam definitely had the best audition, and the best voice out of all the boys. It’s too bad that he wasn’t chosen as a solo finalist, but then he might not have made it, and we would never have had 1D.
Simon definitely formed 1D to keep Liam, and right from judges’ house on, he was given the lead voice position, that staying the same for the first 2 1/2 yrs, when the lead varied a bit.
You can't Deny the fact that when you first discovered one direction they looked perfect, everything about them was so perfect that you'd never even think about their possible reality. It had to be this many years for everything to gradually unveil in front of us
Meaning no disrespect--in the 2010s there were better-looking more artistically & musically talented lads in my 6th Form College, and none of them were 10s or even 8-9s either.
When I first discovered One Direction I couldn't tell Harry Louis and Liam apart LMAO
The opinion that
Do you remember the time when 1D were the part of an ACTUAL Olympic Games in 2012 in UK, it's bizarre how big of a phenomenon they were.
No one ever seems to mention that and it makes me sad, i watched it live it was so iconic
8 year old me was losing my absolute MIND in the living room during the closing ceremonies
Louis's audition will never not send me ☠️
I was a HARDCORE directioner if u will, from video diaries-to fanfics-to collecting "merch"-to living vicariously through concert clips & i could say that it was a fever dream
i kinda miss it tho 🥲🥲🥲

The flower crown edits oh my god 🫣 My dad bought a printer in that same era and I spent a whole day making and printing binder covers that I thought were so cool 💀
I'm glad you brought up that Liam was popular at the beginning, during the xfactor era he was definitely pushed as the front man. I think a lot of people don't know that Liam had already auditioned for xfactor 2 years before and was put in the group bc Simon saw something in him, it's not incorrect for Liam to have assumed 1D was created to help push him as a solo artist.
That's not why they were created and you know it..
people not using spoons bc Liam was afraid of them and calling “fake fans” carrots omg i miss one direction
Amwf
I hate to admit I was one of those people. I got bullied relentlessly in middle school
I slept watching this and when I woke up I got the news of Liam passing away…i’m still processing it!
oh my god
Some people think that he might have been pushed because of how his ex is reacting it might be true she was originally saying that she helps him when he feels bad or feels like he's about to do something to him self then she turns around and says she started to block his texts
My 1D obsession shaped me into the person I am today.
Same bestie 🥲
I read fanfiction of 1D before I knew who they were. After learning their names, 100 pages in I was like wait a minute, that's an actual boygroup?
me too! i knew who 1D was in the mid-2010s but wasn’t into them, yet i read so many wattpad fanfics related to 1D 😂 i learnt all their names & their personalities, heck even their 🍆 size (which was something i didn’t care about but was in a few stories)
@@share_accidental I don't think that would be accurate...
same. i got into 1d because of their fanfic first. i think it helped me get attached to them by knowing their imaginary personality
"what the fuck is a chonce?!" i havent laughed so much that i end up crying in years, my god
Learned english entirely due to one direction. Now im doing my masters degree in english after finishing my bachelors in english as well. Thank you soldiers
I cannot stress how much my life revolved around one direction during those years. My teacher let me go home early on March 25th because of how devastated I was, I had diarys upon diarys full of drawings, fan fictions and love notes to one direction. Every inch of my space was coated in one direction. I was a fucking psychopath and I miss those unhinged years
Dear God 😮
I was busy with homework on the 25th and didn’t go on social media all day so I didn’t end up hearing about it until my friends broke the news to me at school the next day. For the first 15 minutes or so I thought they were joking with me because they had a tendency to pull pranks, but then I searched it up and realized they weren’t lying. My friend and I sat next to each other in class, I think it was math and we were both crying and the teacher came up to us multiple times to ask if we were alright. We just said we were fine because we didn’t want to talk about it. That was the saddest day I had ever experienced at that age and I seriously thought that worse pain than what I was feeling was impossible. I was so dramatic I cried every day for a week.
Nothing devastates me more than being an OG Liam girl… I could NEVER had predicted that Liam would end up being *that guy*
As another OG Liam girl, I’m also very disappointed. He kind of started with the biggest leg up and then did nothing with it. He could’ve gone into producing/songwriting. He could’ve jumped into the business end of the music industry. Instead we got…LP1
You guys clearly aren't supporting him as you're saying you are. Liam went through some really deep shit these past few years. He's coming back to his true self and works very hard to separate himself from what brings him down. Also, his music does not reflect his personality. It's literally art, self-expression, and I think it says a lot about his mental state back then
you guys were the shittiest liam fans. you shouldve supported him at his lowest. he expected you guys to be on his side but instead you guys hated him even more
i can surely say you don't even know about his unreleased songs of lp1 ? do you?
in reference to lp1 i agree it’s def not his best work but it makes me so sad that he bought a lot of the songs instead of writing them himself, he obviously has talent as seen in his songwriting in 1d but i wish we got to see more of it. also vocally, he has such an amazing range but for the most part it wasn’t really present in lp1. he’s really an amazingly talented and good guy, he was just going through a lot and had a lot of pressure on him to be different and put something new out at the time i think.
Louis genuinely did think the haitus would be short, he said the others left him hanging recently in an interview and so he waited to release music. Also Louis has a movie coming out soon!!!
i went to see louis docu 2 days ago it was awesome !! i love louis man
i just saw his movie a couple weeks ago… absolutely loved it! he’s my favorite singer and i’m so proud of what he has accomplished and is doing, he deserves only the best :,)💌
In which interview did he say that?
@@ihatewerewolves1832 his documentary, All Of Those Voices
Niall also thought it would be short lived. One reason he went off back packing for a couple of months. Both he and Louis were devastated at the band breaking up. Louis did say at one time that he and Niall were hugging and crying behind the scenes. They are the most similar of the boys
the fact that I was there since What Makes You Beautiful era and remember almost all of this is insane. The whole Zayn leaving has been etched into my memory because I practically remember every detail of that day. This video has been a fun, and painful, walk down memory lane.
Yeah I loved every era im so glad that I listen
in 2014, when I was 15, I wore a shirt that said “it’s a snake habitat turn around” to my one direction concert to sort out the real fans, who naturally would run up to me and we would be best friends. no one did.
I guess to them what appeared in front of them was 'Sense of Humor not found'
I remember when he tweeted that 😂
💀
that shirt would genuinely hit so hard in 2023
now i want that shirt
I remember being so proud of Zayn for being the first to say "enough" & leaving. maybe he could have done it differently, more gentle to the fans but I was happy for him, because he chose himself. And I love his solo music, you can finally hear Him and literally His mind, beautiful. But I'm always gonna genuinely love "Four", such a good album. in general I think them splitting was for the best for everyone of them.
I honestly don’t blame Ho May all. I wasn’t a die hard fan of one direction, casual listener but as I realized what happened after they part ways and their story. It’s clear Zayn wasn’t treated fairly by fans and faced a lot of racist comments. Not to mention I think the group’s own mismanagement was harmful on all of them. Being as a group while a good experience for them, was also probably rily hard for all of them mentally and physically. Didn’t want of them struggle with their body? Stress?
@@lunarialoonatic ho may?😭😭😭😭
Yes and I know it was a hard decision for him to make too leave back then but I know he did it for him and his mental health and I’m so proud of him 💜.
As a South African Directioner who was saw 1D on 29 March 2015, I cannot stress to you how earth shattering 25 March was to me.
Girl same
omg then can you imagine my 1d concert was on 25 March 2015 in Indonesia and the announcement was an HOUR after the show finished??? world was in crisis
SAME
@@lizadrthy wait so was Zayn at the show or no?
same!!!
I was in my first and hopefully only toxic relationship when Zayn left. I was 15 and I had just fought with my boyfriend. I was mad at him but the moment I read One Direction's post I immediately forgot about him leaving me or staying. It didnt matter anymore because Zayn was out of One Direction, at that point any man could hurt me.
The comparison of remembering where you were when Zayn left to 9/11 is SENDING me because it’s so insanely accurate. (I was doing a project for one of my art classes in the art building during my sophomore year of college and my project became significantly moodier after I saw the news)
I remember hearing about it from overhearing a receptionist at my dentist talking about it to her coworker
every time I hear a song the memories come rushing back and that was honestly the peak of my life. Im not kidding. I’m 25 and waiting to feel that same high again 😅

I uses to read fanfic on Google plus as well
I get everything about one direction recommended to me AFTER liam died 😭

lets be honest the reason why 1D got even a chance to start was because of their looks, they did work on their talent later and deserved the success they got but at the beginning the only way you can justify that they made it there was looks.
@Louis Kingsta yes but i mean at the beginning in auditions, etc people didnt know their personalities yet. It was because they were pretty boys
I know most of us were pre teens but as 16-year-old boys they were quite average? Maybe cute?
Which would make sense, except that none of them are unusually good looking except Zayn. The others were 'cute' at best.
@@pm2886 they were pretty boys and had charisma so they ran with it

I vividly remember living the "Key of Awesome" parodies of their music un-ironically also. What a time to be alive.
omg same, I used to listen to the parodies I ironically lol I needed help
@@theeleanorshellstrop the "Kiss You" parody may have been in my 2013 gym playlist 🤷♀️😅
I think Liam's audition is better than the others' because he had auditioned the year before and got notes on his performance. I don't believe he got very far the year before they were formed though
He got further the years before than he did as an individual act in the latter season
It was because he was too young I think
he was told to get voice lessons and he did. I don't think any of the others had an training.
I love how kindly you spoke of Liam, really nice ❤
I can still picture exactly where I was when Zayn left One Direction
im not even a directioner but had a close friend who was, and i remember where we were when this all went down, outside the school gymnasium in the afternoon
7th grade middle school math class, my desk partner busted out in tears
I learned in psychology that we have things called “flashbulb memories” where we remember everything that happened in a certain moment, a lot of people have 9/11 as theirs. Mine is Zayn leaving one direction. Zayn leaving was literally my 9/11
I was a grown woman and at home 😂😂
Me too. At home after a long school day in front of my computer screaming noooo falling to my knees in the dark. I had JUST decided to stan after years of being a hater after I realized their music wasn't that bad. I guess you could say it's my fault.
Zayn‘s music is great. He deserves more recognition!
Too bad his 2nd album wasnt up to expectations and was too long for people's liking. Also no promo. But in terms of quality he brings out the best. Harry's radio friendly, Niall's genre is likeable but sometimes cheesy music throws me off but put into alot of effort, Louis practicing his songwriting skills & doing what he likes which he'll improve overtime, Liam's generic no music direction and originality. Though to my surprised with the general public in stores, restaurants and such alot of the group's music/Niall's music has been more played often.
I agree Icarus Falls was… a lot. But it has great material on it!
I think he doesn’t really care that much for the fame, hence the lack of promo.
@@TheSkinnyZ He got actually the best solo discography among them if I'm being honest, he's just not as recognized because he isn't interested in fame anymore. He will never have a proper tour, or promo, he said a lot he didn't wanted to and we cannot blame him considering how much he suffered in there.
RIGHT
Zayn's music is my go to spot every day. His voice puts me at ease. Harry's music is my daily pep talk. He brings me alive. Niall's music is so soothing. Liam's are catchy but cringy at times. As for Louis, I can't enjoy it cuz its overun by Larry's and their dumb conspiracy theories.
My high school gf had a directioner phase, and I, weird little emo-theatre kid-gremlin hybrid that I was, decided to serenade her with little things once. Important note that this was also during the glee era and our friend group decided that singing to each other at school was appropriate and not annoying at all. It was just as cringe and you can imagine.
This made me cringe on your behalf 💀 omg
i need to know did you sing it her alone or were there other people there ?! lmaoooo
Why is this cringe??? You were supporting your GF"s interest....

That’s honestly so sweet and awesome I’m so happy for you!!
That's awesome
same! just to understand songs and all their interviews
LITERALLY SAAAMEE!!! I got into 1d when I was around 8 (and despite that I studied English at school its literally thanks to them that I speak the way I do now) because so was my sister into them and those songs made me realize I loved singing as well as helped me with English!
Same here. When I was a kid speaking in English was hard for me but when I found out about One Direction and when I started listening to there music it improved my English skills and now I am doing so better with the subject than before and I can speak in English so much better. Thanks you one direction for everything.
The day the band broke up I was sitting in math class and a girl who was obsessed with the band stopped the whole class for 15 minutes because she started crying about Zayn leaving. Like thanks for stalling the class, but girlie...

Oh my god…I just remember hearing girls *literally* screaming and some crying really, really hard in the middle of class after they got notifications from twitter…my friend’s mom had to come pick her up from school bc she was a wreck. It was pandemonium.
When the zayn leaving announcement came out, i literally rotted in my dark bedroom for the entire day just sobbing. Why were we all all so dramatic LMAO

I was and always will be a Niall girly. I remember the #letniallsing I wrote it on a piece of binder paper and taped it to my door so anyone who came into my room knew where my priorities lied. My mom and I are going to see Niall next year on The Show tour! In my mind, Niall and Harry have had the most success after 1D
They definitely have had the most success, which makes me ecstatic because Niall has always been my fav , Zane would have probably been more successful than Niall if he kept on making music since he is so easily marketable

we can cringe all we want but we never were as happy as we were during our 1d stan era and I'm sure most of us couldn't find yet another artist or band to be obsessed over and dedicate our twitter account to. everyday I wake up and think deeply on the fact that I got to live during that time and in a way I think I'm the most privileged girl alive no kidding
I avoid listening to their songs because when I do I get so sad because I know we will never get those blissful, carefree years back again 😢
To be fair, the reason a lot of 1D fangirls couldnt find another band or artist to obsess over again is probably because you finished going through puberty, your hormones weren’t out of control anymore, and you grew out of the desire to absolutely obsess over a group of extremely average white boys (Ik zayn isn’t white but you get my point) 💀

It's so crazy walking down fandom memory lane and realizing how fandom culture really hasn't changed much besides the past couple years. Like the pandemic rlly slapped fandom culture into shape and we finally started acting like respectful humans- well most of us.
No you haven't
I also think fans have gotten more respectful of the artists privacy over the years but I think especially in kpop it has gotten worse
I think people have gotten objectively worse. The pandemic has made most people forget their manners and morals.
the way my fandom spaces think the exact opposite 😭 but a few things have improved
Idk man I think it’s gotten worse on some levels. Maybe not on harassment levels like they did to one direction, but it’s a lot more hateful online and slandering of characters
Watching this now after hearing the news 😭
I was never a full on directioner, but I remember a friend of mine getting deep into the Harry and Louis ship and absolutely screaming when it was announced that Louis was having a kid. Again, I didn't know what the big deal was but she claimed that some girl was claiming Louis knocked her up which is impossible since he was gay and in a relationship with Harry. The insanity
I did not know gay people were not able to have kids hahahah. They are so sure they are gay is funny
The fact that they never believed that bisexual people exist even tho it’s wrong to force a sexuality onto someone
I believe Larry was a thing and I never understood why people couldn't understand that someone who could be queer could also have children

I wasn't a listener of 1D even though I was in their target demographic (like many other commenters), but I too remember the day that they announced Zayn was leaving. It seemed like the internet had collapsed and I followed the drama closely despite only knowing one song. I should've let myself be a teenage girl and enjoy teenage girly things and not have been afraid of being mocked for it.
I was a 1D fan and though I was sad, my initial thoughts were either "it isn't the end of the world" and "good for him" cause he faced a lot of racism being the only non-white member and like the other guys,didn't want to join in the first place but used it as an advantage to a solo career.
Yes, basically tells us how trash people are. He didn't leave because of his band mates or management, the public degraded him. They should be proud
this brought back so many memories man.. my 1d stan era was my cringe era 😭 but i do fondly look back on it for the friends i’ve made & nostalgia purposes. now i have an excuse to mess up my spotify stats & re-listen to their whole discography 🙇🏽♀️
I imagine Zayn leaving the band was the equal of Ginger Spice leaving the Spice Girls in the middle of a tour in 1998.
it’s honestly so funny looking back at everything as an adult, but it was genuinely such a fun part of growing up for me. realizing the kind of turmoil they dealt with at insanely young ages does make me glad that things ended fairly early. i also don’t really want them to get back together for countless reasons but would love if 5-10 years from now they did a little appearance or something for the old directioners to reminisce
1D was so messy, but not on the same way as 5H. The boys were close but fans truly didn’t know boundaries on so many levels. Larry Stylinson, stalking, bombarding them at hotels, etc etc. That’s not even talking about the media and their management. They got so big so quick that they never truly got to enjoy being a band and making music together before becoming “the world’s biggest boyband”
you make me feel seen in a way i’ve never felt before bc no one talks about this stuff anymore like no one knows the epic highs and lows of waiting to see if your favorite boyband member gets assassinated or not
OMG yes😭😭 1d was my life back then
and the Archie line-
