The planet's biggest pop band One Direction continue to rule
the world's charts with the 17 November release of their brand new album,
‘FOUR’. The album has already hit No.1 on pre-order charts in an astonishing 67
countries (including South Africa), and is the follow up to last year’s
‘Midnight Memories’, the world’s best-selling album of 2013. ‘FOUR’ includes
the new worldwide smash hit single ‘Steal My Girl’, which stars Danny DeVito in
its hilarious music video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpsKGvPjAgw). The
single is currently simultaneously in the Top 10 on the South African airplay
charts as well as in the Top 10 most downloaded singles in the country for this
week. Musically, 'FOUR' expands One Direction's sound to become their most
complete album yet. Opening with the crashing stadium piano chords of 'Steal My
Girl', the album takes in the likes of the stirring 'Ready To Run' and the
unabashed retro pop of 'Where Do Broken Hearts Go.' Slowing the pace for 'Night
Changes' (the official second single from the project), the band have once
again crafted a spellbinding ballad that easily stands tall with the best of
their catalogue to date. As the band become more involved and their song
writing becomes more personal with each record, ‘FOUR’ is set to be their best
received album yet. Contributing to 12 of the album’s 16 songs, Harry, Louis,
Liam, Niall and Zayn reflect on the incredible journey they’ve made, growing up
in public whilst forging friendships on the road.
* One Direction is touring South Africa for the 1st time next year. Catch the boys live on Saturday 28 and Sunday 29 March at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg. Cape Town fans can see the band on Wednesay 1 April 2015.
