Long overdue! And in this comparison One Direction have triumphed. Seems fair enough to me

It was obvious that One Direction were going to win when The Wanted started slagging off every female singer going.

The Wanted are dire in every way.

I'm not a big fan of One Direction either but to be fair to them they seem like nice guys so they have the edge for me.

The Wanted are absoluteley awful and lip sync (very badly) and one direction are just generic and manufactured.

Both awful acts doing great in the US when great uk acts such as Take That produce fantastic music that they have written themselves are none existant in the US... Ridiculus.

The Wanted are so awful and what is more I hardly ever see fans of them. Usually no one has a nice word to say about the group which makes the success they have had even more puzzling.

I admit I dont mind The Wanted, they do have some good songs.

Didnt think the American fans would take to them either, but they seem to have really well. I wonder if they'll release All Time Low over there? Did really well as their first song here didnt it.

I prefer the wanted's music, but one direction are better looking and have better live voices most of the time.

The Wanted all the way! Can't stand One Direction

Although there are two much better boybands out there at the moment in the form of JLS and Lawson!

Lookswise I'd have:
OD - Liam & Zayn
TW - Tom, Max & Nathan

Musicwise I prefer The Wanted. I think their first album is really good and had a lot of good album tracks. I haven't heard much by One Direction I particularly like, however I do like More Than This.

I guess OD are boys, TW are men:
OD are bought buy girls, TW are bought by women:
More girls than women buy singles/albums = OD more successful

Two of 1D are older than Nathan from TW (Louis and Zayn), but I get your point

Imho One Direction will become more important to music than the Beatles.

Please don't even joke, what a terrible thought

I can't abide either group. But 1D seem to be a little more respectful to other music acts than The (Un)Wanted, so 1D have the edge for me

One Direction all the way for me - they have manners, are always polite and very humble as well for all the success they have had.

The Wanted are a bunch of rude and disrespectful guys who should really keep their mouths shut from now on - they think they're so cool but they're not.

No.. Tom and Max CAN BE rude and disrespectful, watch the video of THEM slagging off Christina and you will see Nathan and Jay, especially Nathan, were shocked that they even said it.. It's gotta be annoying for the other members to read The Wanted slag off Britney/Christina when it's usually Tom or Max that open their mouths..

OD vs TW is as boring as the Sugababes vs Girls Aloud "rivalry" of the last decade, because I doubt it actually exists!!
