Vocals: 1. Liam (most of the time) 2. Zayn (also a very strong voice) 3. Niall (decent, but needs work) 4. Harry (voice is flat live... but I still enjoy him quite a bit) 5. Louis (nothing appealing about his voice, but he's hilarious and agreed he is getting better) I love the group overall and the guys are hilarious, and I stan for them hard (as witnessed through my Tumblr/convos with my bff/chart history ) but Louis, although he is improving, is the weak link of the group.

I actually think Harry has a strong voice. I think it was for "Story of My Life", but his vocals on one of the Rockin' Eve performances was outstanding. I think he has his moments where he shines above everyone else, but other times he's just equal with them. They all have strong voices in my opinion, but Louis would be at the bottom for me too.

I agree, but I tend to like Niall more for some reason, all of them have their good moments, and I enjoy all of them! Louis is nothing from a vocalist standpoint, but his personality makes up for it! They're all amazing people, which is why I'm a big fan! :)

I obviously know Harry and Zayn lol.

With these outside people Liam and Zayn are in the studio with, when they bring it back to 1D it sure is going to make their 5th album very fresh sounding. Too bad we may be waiting til 2016 to hear it. Hopefully though that means 2 more singles from FOUR and they are "Where do Broken Hearts Go" and "18" or "Ready to Run."

In a couple interviews at the end of 2014 I believe it was Liam that said they are going to take more time with the next record and probably release it later than their typical pattern. I wouldn't be surprised though if it still came out in Q4 since Simon would want to push for Holiday sales.

Responding to this post from the "Night Changes" thread... Yeah I guess I declared it dead too early but it looked like it was on the way out and trended that way for a couple weeks. Now it's coming back. Today they are filming the video for the next single in Sydney Australia. No word on what it is. In December Liam said "The next single has something to do with running" on a British Talk show. That of course sounds like "Ready to Run." On Twitter there are also some people saying they "found out" that the video is for "Clouds." I give that very little credit but that would be cool. "Clouds" is definitely different then anything they've ever done, especially on radio. Personally I still feel the "sleeper" hit that is waiting to explode is "Where Do Broken Hearts Go." I don't understand how their label is just leaving that on the back burner. Even 1D said in an interview it's their favorite they've ever done and it comes across great live I've seen in the new tour videos on Youtube. I think "Night Changes" could make it into the middle of the teens but beyond that is doubtful. We'll see though! "Ready to Run" isn't a "bad" song (I don't hate anything on the album, really)...I'm just not blown away by it. I could see it getting an underwhelming response. I'm actually more skeptical of WDBHG being a single, though...only because its melody is awfully reminiscent of WMYB. Need to listen to "Clouds" again...

Stockholm Syndrome and Clouds are two of my favorite songs on the album. I wish they'd take a risk and release one of those, or even Where Do Broken Hearts Go.
Ready To Run is very similar to most of their previous single releases in my opinion.

Unfortunately their label, Columbia/Syco (Simon Cowell), has no imagination and believe in just repeating the same thing with radio over and over. It will bite them in the end. Someone as smart as Simon to put them together should understand that taking risks on radio is how legendary music is made, not just the same old shit over and over again.

Where Do Broken Hearts Go shall become the next single, as I had commanded it, it shall pass.
No, seriously, with the power bestowed upon me by the god of pretty boys with nice hair, I command the mortals in their team to choose it as their next single.

No, seriously, with the power bestowed upon me by the god of pretty boys with nice hair, I command the mortals in their team to choose it as their next single. If they stick to their usual pattern, they will only get 1 more single. One to go through the Summer tour. WDBHG HAS to be it! If their label chooses anything else then someone does not know how to do their job. This song is the best chance at a top 5, maybe #1 that they have had since SOML! It's simple! "Night Changes" is still gaining. It will make it into the top 10 if they still keep pushing it. It's been out so long though. We need something new by May at least.

I feel like this is a PR spin for rehab or for an intervention of some sorts. Dude has been looking madd greasy around the eyes lately and we already know he isn't exactly anti-drug.

That did cross my mind. Hopefully whatever is going on he'll be better by the start of the Europe/American leg in a few months. I think they only had 2 more shows left, then a 2 month break. So it must be really bad for him to stop now. Edit... They actually have 3 Asian shows left (2 in Manilla and 1 in in Jakarta) then to South Africa on the 28th for 3 shows, then 1 in Dubai. After that they have no dates til June 5 in Wales. It will be interesting to see if Zayn comes back for South Africa. It does suck for the fans wanting to see Zayn at the 3 remaining Asian dates. I heard he is the most popular of the 5 in this part of the world so I wonder if it will affect attendance at the sold out shows. Something really bad had to have happened we don't know about.
