Amazing! Let's see if they can hold on, even if they stay in the top 3 or top 5, they could have a great chart position on the BB chart!

OK I see it now.
Pretty impressive stuff few boy bands from the Uk have done anything like that in the past few decades. I am not a fan or even like their music but credit where credit is due. |

Congratulations to them but they've done absolutely **** all to earn it.
Bunch of pretty boys who weren't good enough as solo acts on a TV show get chucked together, get voted through every week because girls fancy them, have the help of major backing vocals on every performance, eventually lose the show to two people more talented, return a year later with a fairly good pop song, deservedly hits #1 but then the two follow up singles bomb due to the poor material and yet because of their ****ing looks they're now charting worldwide and look set to be the biggest pop band in the world. Seriously, so much more talented acts in the UK are struggling to shift material and yet these ***** are becoming massive because girls fancy them. Have you seen the video of them arriving at a hotel in New York? About 100 girls running around screaming and crying, battering the taxi doors trying to reach them? WHY?! They can't even ****ing sing. ARGH!!

I can't stand them.
But what I will say is I hope them and Simon don't get complacent with their next album and just assume they will top the charts again. I hope this is NOT their peak, they need to prove themselves more performance wise I'll admit that. (Liam has been very consistent, Zayn has improved dramatically, Harry is unpredictable (the nerves get the better of him sometimes)) Their instant success is a combination of songs, looks, excellent social media promotion/interaction, personality and branding. And of course Mr Cowell! |

I personally dont find any of them attractive or extremely pleasing to look at except maybe one of them. I believe that it is just the right time and opportunity and there is a slot for them in the current market. |

oh dear, a lot of negative opinions and i suppose some people have a point. however, its really not worth getting worked up over, like someone else said they are just a boy-band. obviously, they are going to go down well with teenage girls and the music is pretty catchy too. where`s the harm in all honesty?
i wish people wouldn't post their opinions as if their are facts though. its getting tiresome to read armchair vocal critiques, when its entirely subjective. maybe people regard `g4` the best ever male vocal group in x factor`s history, but it all opinion based on taste. |

How do they know who they are in New York?
Have they had a few chart hits in America already? And What Makes You Beautiful was their first single release (debuted at #28 with NO promo) and the album was released yesterday in the US. |
