Re: How and why are One Direction so popular everywhere........?Yeah, but thinking that some of those artists are "amazing" goes against so many things that Eminem stands for and represents. To state that both Eminem and Nicki Minaj are "amazing" implies that they are of the same calibre...(Original post by sarahthegemini)
Erm, I don't think he was comparing them, he simply said he liked both. I like U2 and Leona Lewis for example, doesn't mean I'm drawing comparisons ...Last edited by ummm; 22-04-2012 at 15:24. -
Re: How and why are One Direction so popular everywhere........?
These boy bands have been around for decades and we have hated them all. The only logical explanation is to blame the one common factor amongst them. You see, it's not the bands themselves that are so annoying.
The hysteria of teenage girls is like a million nails on a million chalkboards though. -
Re: How and why are One Direction so popular everywhere........?
Their music is, well, mediocre, just okay. Nothing innovative or pushing boundaries but hey, it's their first album. I'm happy for their success that they've had in the US but I can't understand the mass appeal and how much of their fans just love them for their looks and not for their music.

Re: How and why are One Direction so popular everywhere........?If a song is catchy, you like it, and so by subjectivity it's not a terrible song.(Original post by dylantombides)
The people who like their music have no idea what real talent is. The people who like them are probably girls who are about 15, buy all their clothes from Hollister, watch X Factor and Britain's Got Talent every night, love Bieber, Rebecca Black, Ollie Murs, JLS, N Dubz and any other corny mainstream pop artist(s) that make terrible, yet catchy songs. They probably go around gossiping to other girls about 'which one is the hottest' from One Direction.
I'm a guy.
16, close
I haven't a thing from Holliser.
I like X Factor and Britain's Got Talent.
I like all those artists you mentioned except Rebecca Black.

Re: How and why are One Direction so popular everywhere........?The problem with One Direction is not them, but it is their fans. I think you feel the same way, however you seem like an OFGKTA dickrider at the same time so you have kind of contradicted yourself (both are terrible groups with annoying fans).(Original post by flowermaster91)

Re: How and why are One Direction so popular everywhere........?being good looking doesn't make them charming, the reason they're popular is because there's a sea of desperate teenage girls who idolise them and want to think they can 'get with them' which will NEVER happen, therefore they're just lining their pockets or more specifically Simon Cowell's(Original post by weirdnessandcoffee)
They're not amazing, hell no.
But good-looking, charming,-hell yes! -
