Debut single from X Factor's One Direction. They finished 3rd in the competition.
This is cheesy boy band crap, but it's #1 on UK iTunes.

It's ridiculously cheesy, but the chorus is infectious.

This is being serviced to US radio in February.
Unlike The Wanted, I don't see them having any success in the US.

This is too catchy. I hope it hits.

I'd see this having a good chance. They're huge in the UK, and regularly pop up on worldwide trends on Twitter, so many Americans are already wise to their existence. This is incredibly infectious, so I definitely wouldn't write it off.

#32 on iTunes. Their album comes out March 20, so I'm not exactly sure why the label pulled the add date.

Was there some sort of performance? No... just a "social media campaign."

Whoa this is dated. Straight out of 1989, for real.

I think this is going to #1 on the Hot 100. Hmm interesting prediction. This and "Glad You Came" are almost interchangeable to me, but I like both. I almost wish they were combined into one mega-song, there is no need for two of them on their own.

Interchangeable? They're both boybands, sure. But the songs sound completely different.

Every time I see them perform it feels like they were pushed out on the stage for the first time. It actually makes them kind of endearing.

Nice! To me, they definitely seem to have more talent and seem more "human" than BSB and N Sync. How did the crowd react weirdly? From watching on TV, it seemed like they got a good reaction and lots of applause.
