If this lot turned up the next show, I'd vote for them!

But I think there's some debate about how much artists "need," the industry in order to get their stuff across anymore, although, obviously a band like 1D need to go down that route..
And, as for dated, give me that kind of "dated," over the other kind, anyday.

the reason detractors don't understand one direction is because they don't get one direction.:sleep::sleep:

They help write their own songs, they all sing, dance and entertain, Niall plays the guitar. And they are absolutely lovely to their fans all of the time, and they haven't let he success go to their heads? Which is easily done when they have become so successful in America aswell as the UK
Good luck to them!”

Actually their chart performances are beginning to wane already.

I'm more than happy to "own," the fact that I "don't get them."
But I might add..what's to get?

Totally rubbish band, and I hope they go in One Direction - that is down!!
UK Boybands of today are simply terrible. As much as I don't like Take That, they are still miles ahead of 1D

Do they all dance? I thought Zayn was "won't dance, can't dance". How quickly his boot camp audition was forgotten eh?
As for Niall's guitar. So lovely for him. I guess the millions out there that play the guitar should just sit down and forget about it because Niall's here.

You have misunderstood my post.
I meant that although 1D have been much more successful worldwide, JLS are much more successful here, so why don't the judges mention JLS at all? Both acts have done very well for themselves.
As for Xtra Factor, I was talking about LAST YEAR, when they were on very often.

Well said.
Jimi Hendrix must be turning over in his grave at the prospect that his legendary status is under threat!
There are a number of people in vocal groups of all sorts who can play instruments..that's not necessarily a marker for how "good," they are..
And, with One Direction, not really part of their remit?
But I'm sure that if he gets his guitar out on stage when they perform "live," for the odd number, it'll add to the gravitas of the occasion..
