I listened to the album this afternoon and I enjoyed it. It was a very pleasant, enjoyable listen. My favorites upon my first listen were "From The Dining Table", "Carolina", "Meet Me In The Hallway", and "Ever Since New York". I didn't dislike or hate any of the songs. It's a nice concise album.

Ohhhhhhh tell me something I don't already know! <insert catchy guitar riff>. I swear Ever Since New York low-key reminds of Filter's Take A Picture.

I fucking teared up at that documentary. Wow. I REALLY like this guy. He also looks SO much better with the shorter hair, it's not even funny but yes, the album actually continues to grow on me. Before, I didn't really care for Kiwi and Only Angel and now they are two of my favorites. So catchy but so organic! I love how the musicians really show up on this record. And his voice is...wow. I actually didn't know he had that in him. Very proud to be a fan.

Katy Perry on Ellen "Would You Rather" repeatedly chose Harry and said "I love that new record"

It looks like Harry's album will outsell Zayn's for 1st week sales in the US and probably in the UK too. Zayn is more popular than Harry in the Middle East, India, Pakistan, Southeast Asia, Russia, Africa, Mexico and some parts of South America (Google Trends): trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=harry%20styles,Zayn--- Performance of Carolina on the Late Late Show Harry also did the monologue and was host (solo, doing sit-down bits) for the first 1/2 hour.

Solid debut; wasn't expecting such an "authentic" rock singer/songwriter vibe from him. The trio of songs at the end are the ones I've kept on repeat.

I am not here for all the talk show cringe but I'm glad he's getting so much promo for such a good album.

I'm shocked by how good "Sign of the Times" is. I had zero interest in Harry Styles or any of OD except maybe Zayn, and would've never guessed he had a song like that in him.

This album is stunning. "Ever Since New York," "Kiwi," and "Carolina" are just incredible.
What are the technicalities for Best New Artist? Despite him being in 1D, is he actually able to be nom'd as a solo artist? I could see this album doing wonders for him in the awards circuit.

Steve Nicks singing Two Ghosts with Harry at his charity LA concert (just a clip so far): And a clip of Leather and Lace. Hopefully have better videos tomorrow: And beautiful - Landslide Someone said Harry was crying - awww. Stevie Nicks is his idol. I love Harry now. Haha. If the Queen of Rock takes the time to sing with you, you're something special.

Harry loves Stevie Nicks. Out of all of his musical idols he chose Stevie as the one he talked about in his huge biographical section in AnOther Man magazine. The duets are getting a lot of press. Here's lovely article in Variety: variety.com/2017/music/news/harry-styles-troubadour-stevie-nicks-concert-reviewumph-and-stevie-nicks-1202438265/In other news - Harry's Carpool Karaoke is the top trending video on Youtube yesterday and today and already has over 8 million views. Justin Bieber on Instagram posted a pic of Harry's Carpool Karaoke playing on his screen and captioned it "Just watched Harry styles carpool karaoke!! Hilarious! Also congrats on the album, it sounds great !" And I saw a couple of actors yesterday declare their Harry fandom on Twitter. One was Gina Rodriguez. Also, several attendees said Christopher Nolan was at Harry's Troubadour concert. Full video of Leather and Lace Two lovely pics:
