Last of the One Direction to launch itself, the release of this title was much awaited. This was because the teasers showed him naked . Just that !

Already identified as a rocker queer to the David Bowie , Harry Styles flies perfectly solo. And he’s right. And what about the last two members of One Direction? Well not much. Unwittingly, Niall Horan reminds a lot of Ed Sheeran and his first single “This Town” was a relative success . Number 20 in the United States when it was at its best, it quickly collapsed afterwards. As for his second single, “Slow Hands” , it’s not joy either. More sensual certainly, the piece does not take off, quite the contrary. In the 52nd position of the Billboard Hot 100 last week, “Slow Hands” is now 60th . And while ” Ed Sheeran is in freefall in the Billboard 200 , we are still waiting for news of Louis Tomlinson. Last December, he unveiled the single “Just Hold On” featuring with Steve Aoki. Number 52 in the United States, it quickly (very quickly) disappeared from the radars. Since then, we are waiting to know where the albums of Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson are. Let’s be patient! And you, what do you think of their solo singles?
