It Will Last Forever

One Direction has bee named Billboard’s “Top New Artist of 2012”. The boys all sat down with the music site and each answered questions related to their successful career.

On what Harry Styles personal highlight from this year has been: “For me the Olympics literally can’t be topped. Just the feeling of being in that room, all our families were there. The whole feeling was just unbelievable.” To read Harry’s full article click here.

On Niall Horan’s music tastes: We’ve been doing a lot of traveling in the States, and country music’s quite big over here, so I’ve been listening to a lot of that. It’s as big back home I’ve been listening to a lot of Lady Antebellum — I’m a big fan of them.

And I think The Script’s new album is really good. I like stuff that’s a bit more guitar-y. I’ve got my old favorites like The Eagles and Bon Jovi. Tonight I’m going to watch The Who at the Garden. I’m kind of an old ’80s ’90s rocker.” To read Niall’s full article click here.

On what happens if it all ends for Liam Payne: “I’ve got a tattoo on my arm [‘Everything I Ever Wanted, But Nothing I’ll Ever Need’] to make sure I’ve managed to keep up with my family and friends and stuff.

We know that this won’t last forever but we’re having a great time out here. It’s just amazing, I’m just really enjoying working for the money our whole year on tour. We’ve got the film and that stuff coming out next year, still loads of things. It’s just about living in this moment.” To read Liam’s full article click here.

On what role Zayn Malik plays in the band: “I’d call myself the mediator. I kind of just float around and do my own thing. I’m kind of chilled out, laid back. But whenever it gets into a rap session I’m always looking for something to do. I love to write. I’m kind of like a bit of everything wrapped into one.” To read his full article click here.

On Louis Tomlinson being the unofficial businessman of the group: I’ve sometimes felt like that, but to be honest most of the time I’m the immature one who needs to be told to get focused. I’m a bit of a perfectionist so I have to be kind of be on board with every minor detail and [I’m] quite opinionated. It’s quite important for me personally to be involved with the whole project.” To read his full article click here.

These boys have had a fantastic year! I cannot wait to see what 2013 brings for them.
