Merry Christmas to you too Annushka. Do you have your presents tonight in France? Over here we do ours tomorrow.
I think it depends on the familly.
We will do both actually (because of my nephews, we will exchange some gifts tonight, and will have some presents from Santa in the morning).
Andi, we need your in put in the who is biggest from x factor in main forum? A poster says Leona Lewis because she has had a number one in 36 countries and 1D have never done that. I am sure they have and ore countries too?
Oh, I've got a lot of catching up to do, it seems Been away skiing for a day in our beautiful mountains
Will look into these threads in the MF, but Modest's number are usually right, I noticed they've updated it from 47 million to 50 million records sold since the release of FOUR. Seems about right, almost 2 million albums sold, 1 million songs downloaded since November 17 and a few hundred thousand DVDs sold.
Huge gift card effect on itunes for One Direction in the first hours of Christmas
UK:
--> FOUR is #6 (up from 17) and #20 ("standard version", up from 37)
--> SMG is #23 (up from 27) and 97 and 100 (each up more than 70 places)
--> NC still #10 (no considerable effect so far, but hardly surprising, as the gift card effect tends to benefit the most successful songs in the last few months.)
US:
--> FOUR up to #7 (from #11 yesterday, when it had already rise due to the Christmas special)
--> SMG #44 (up from #58)
--> NC down 4 places to #22
I guess they've been doing many things right this era so far. Even though the hype has gone a bit, they're still really successful in loads of countries. The interest still seems to be there, if they continue to make good music and are ready to promote it to a certain extent (if only to make the fans happy and remind them that they're still there and ready to fight for the top spot; I sometimes doubt the effect promo has on "normal adults", when they see them perform to hoardes of screaming teenage girls ).
Hope you having a lovely day. I am embarrassed to say I received 1D *you and I * perfume, a 1D wallet , a calendar and of course the xmas card I got last week :D I can't see me using the wallet, how embarrassing bringing it out of my bag in a shop :D You and I isn't as nice as This moment but maybe it will grow on me

Album sales a lot lower than last year (apart from the top 3), when MM was #6 with 2.5 million, TMH at #8 with 2.4 million and UAN #37 with 1.1 million copies sold (http://www.mediatraffic.de/albums-2013.htm).
That means MM is now at 4.2 million worldwide, whereas TMH was at 5.3 million at the same time last year. Not too bad I'd say
In any case, we're going to get official (IFPI) numbers some time in January, I think.
Merry Christmas everyone. Hope you all had a lovely day.
Looking forward to catching up on the NBC special so thanks for the links. Got a mini calendar and I got a diary last week as well for meself which will make me look highly respectable in work...
I know bits and pieces have been posted already but this is the full One Direction Special that was on NBC earlier this week. Watch it quick before it gets taken down! The first minute or two the sound is minimal but it goes up after that. Although it's still a bit quiet so I plugged in my headphones. It was a great show. They are such cuties. Zayn looked so dreamy thoughout and they were all so lovely in it. Such sweet guys.

Merry Xmas to you. Thanks for posting this, need me some 1D for the weekend.:)
Happy New Year to all in the 1D at. Here's hoping for another good year for the boys in 2015. Who would have thought back in our X Factor days they would have lasted this long and been so massive. I hope what ever their future the make the right decisions and can continue to do what they want for as long as they want
Happy New Year to you all. So glad I've found you all. Can't wait to see the boys next year and see them go onto even better things (if that's possible).
Hope 2015 brings you all you wish for with good health and happiness.
Congrats the boys!! "One Direction take to the stage to give fans a Rockin' New Year's Eve... as it's revealed their £180m stadium tour was the highest-grossing of 2014"
They are cheaper however for this next tour I think their management is taking the pi$$ a bit. In the 02 it's now £149 for the front blocks that were £45 on the TMH tour. That's such a massive jump.
Did anyone manage to get tickets yet for September?
What did you all think of Zayn and Perrie's outfits?
Edit. Perhaps my info about the seat prices was wrong? Just had a look and the top price seems to be around £70.

Amazing. Especially Zayn's. He could look good in a telly tubby outfit I think.

The snippet about recording the album was from the TV special too.

Merry Xmas to you and all 1D ATers.:)
Thanks for these. Really enjoyed the Roller coaster quiz.:D Zayn being a spoilt sport, or was he just not there?
Also enjoyed the album recording snippet. It's good to see how they go about the process, considering they have to do it in between live shows.:)
More editing, also loved them surprising the fans.:)

I know. He's so beautiful. I have the 1D calendar for Christmas and Zayn's January. I think it's going to be January for the whole of 2015 lol.
Perrie's beautiful too. They're going to have super attractive kids.
