jajaja don't worry, the theory does not preclude slight inflections... our defence of harry does not cancel each other out... i said similar but not exactly the same each time so all is good...

YouTube rates daily and weekly. Don't think there are any new Bieber video's out this month.

ETA: If you go to the YouTube home page and click on "Popular" you see 1D listed 2nd.

And apparently has females of all ages on LOCK!

Audiences
This video is most popular with:


Gender

Age
Female
13-17

Female
18-24

Female
45-54”

Interesting statistics. Might be an idea to link the video to relevent music sites. Every little helps.

Dropping by to say that I really like the One Thing video. Love the London scenery and the styling and of course, the boys being their goofy selves. I think each member bring something different to the table and and they really do complement and complete each other. Love their chemistry with one another and I think they really struck gold with these boys.

Quick question though, if they are releasing the album in the US, is it necessarily the case that they will use the same album cover?? Not a big fan of their current cover to be honest as I think its too skewed towards the younger audience BUT, I really like the single cover for One Thing, and seriously think that it would attract a wider range of fans. I don't know, I just think, that male fans and the over 20s would be more inclined to take the album seriously and to check it out if the cover wasn't too teeny bopper. JMO though.

You have a good point ferrero and I don't know the answer. I much prefer the new cover to the old one too.

Album came in at number 17 this week. Still a good showing . I would imagine the sales figures will be available tomorrow

The current artwork is what is up on the USA iTunes site. I suppose they can change it if they want. But the cover might already have a certain level of market recognition so why disrupt that?

Is it me or is there a surge in Zayn's popularity? He seems to be getting a lot of love when looking at the comments for the new vid and the OMG-Yahoo (I think) concert review said that the there was a fine line between the screams for Harry and Zayn.

Well, Zayn is "available" while Harry is dating "some old broad". That might be it.

Thought Harry said he was single. I think DM keep pushing the stories because they get a lot reaction from their readers.

I got into 1D because of Harry, love the tone of his voice but really impressed with Zayn his vocals are spot on now and he is so confident on stage. I now watch videos where my eyes are drawn between him and Harry whereas previously it was just Harry. Liam is a great singer but IMO lacks the charisma on stage of Harry and Zayn

Oh, they're still shagging. I doubt it's exclusive though.
