I thought it was out today? it wasn't on iTunes at midnight.

Edit: Just noticed it came out at 8:00am. They waited till 12:00am on the west coast of America to do a simultaneous worldwide release.

Is it true it isn't out in the UK, only next Friday?! Would be stupid, in my opinion!!

No, it's out. As I mentioned in my previous post they waited till 8:00am to release it. The UK seems to be getting on air on sale now for everything like the rest of the world for most songs which is good.

It's a good song but I really preferred Infinity, I think that should have been a single.

Not sure about the song yet. Fans love it, because of all the (possible) references to Taylor Swift and "Larry". Have to listen to it in good quality, only listened to one low quality version...

"Perfect" is #1 in 50 countries after a couple of hours... Outselling the competition easily everywhere (5:1 in compared to J. Bieber in Ireland, 2:1 in the UK and the US).

After a lt of listens I love it and is pure genius ! The chorus is a rip of of swift's style which she won't sue as would look petty when style was about Harry and am damm sure this song is about her . It's not a diss but love the line if you want to write a break up song about me or something like that

So genius you told us twice lol!!
I think it's a bit of a myth that Style was written about Harry. That song was written and recorded by Max Martin and Taylor before they even met.

Are you sure? Have you listened to the lyrics? Those lyrics scream Harry and their short lived romance. She even alluded to it in an interview

It is no DMD or Night changes, but I like it. A few more listens and I will hopefully be hooked.

Possibly, but I read Max had already written most of the song but it maybe wrong what I read. I do agree that Pefect sounds very much like Style though. Like Drag Me Down it's not nearly as instant as their other songs. It's going to take a few listens to grow on me.

Nice (first) live performance of "Perfect": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_C5FakWKmU

Not really loving this song at all. It also is far too similar to Style by Taylor Swift. Prefer Infinity to this. I notice a lot of fans on Twitter are unhappy that Harry sings the bulk of the song too. The opinion from them is if this is the last One Direction song for a while they wanted it to be a true One Direction song not a test run for Harry Styles solo career.

Well, it's the first single ever that Louis starts, with Niall starting the second verse, so I don't mind hearing Harry on the Chorus and in the Bridge... Most fans seem to be very happy on Twitter!!

They all look so fine.

Its too much Harry ft Louis, Liam and Niall for me which is disappointing on what could be their last ever single, plus I feel the chorus lets the song down a bit. Louis' robotic voice at the start isn't great either they should have just let him sing it straight,maybe

Hopefully the album tracks are better,they usually are anyway

I am a huge fan of the group but I have seen these comments on a Twitter and places like Popjustice forums. I do feel let down by this song and just because I am a fan doesn't mean I have to like every song. Just hope there are better songs on the new album.

What makes you feel let down?

I was in no way suggesting you're not entitled to your opinion. I don't like all their songs either (even though I usually like the singles).

Just wanted to say I didn't see that much criticism on twitter, but I wasn't looking for it either

I love it! And I'm really loving all the promo

I guess if you have the best voice and the best look in a band and get the most attention then you are always going to upset fans of the others.
