Well thank you the music police! I have been passionate about music since I was very young. It is so easy to forget what everyone was saying about the Beatles when they were first popular because with HINDSIGHT they stayed the course. At the time, they were slated as just being good looking lads who made it lucky - much the same as 1 D are now.
Who knows where 1 D will go - they could develop from poppy songs like the Beatles into something much deeper, or they could have their moment of fame and go their separate ways. It's not just the UK they are popular in, they premiered at Number 1 in the US charts.
Just because you don't like them, why can't you be proud of their achievements? Like I said, they are good decent lads some will like thier music, some won't, but no need to hate on them - or send me to an asylum for liking them! As John Lennon would have said, give peace a chance.
