“My time in the band didn't make me forget who I am as an artist. You just adjust respectfully and see what's right for the band at the moment. However, I did my musical development phase in the band and not alone. I had to make up for that now as a solo artist”
I sense an acknowledgement from Louis that while being in the band as he was always thinking in the context of the band and wasn’t actively preparing for a future solo career, it took him longer to find his feet than the people who were already putting away songs for when they would go solo.
I think that Liam may still be in this phase. I think Niall by working with the same creative team as 1D and not being radically different in sound to 1D may have played it smart and got a leg up.
Louis’ quote is from the Low Key interview.
I feel like coming out of the band, Liam was trying to chase numbers (and so did Louis, to an extent), but never settled with a core team to direct him, the way Niall and Harry did.
Louis’ team was— like Larries now— playing for two teams, and the primary focus wasn’t exactly on Louis. Most of his team came from Syco or was Syco-affiliated (and this still persisted in Lou Teasdale, Jessie Martin, Ann-Marie Thomson, Simon Jones, Eleanor Calder, Chris Frewin). They were thinking of Syco spin-off projects for Louis, and used what they could hold onto from 1D (Louis Tomlinson) to promote Syco. The Sony subsidiary labels like Epic and Arista were not taking their cues from Simon Cowell but from Rob Stringer, as Syco was majority owned, and eventually dissolved, by Sony.
When Louis said, “I had to make up for that now as a solo artist,” his words obscure the fact that he was trying to find his feet as a solo artist in a professional environment where his own label did not want him to be a solo artist. They wanted him to promote other Syco/ Sony artists, like James Arthur, and Syco projects, like America’s Got Talent and X Factor UK. They made him feel as though his music was inadequate, and delayed the release of music and tour. Louis saying he was responsible for cancelling his first album doesn’t erase his 2017 interviews where he said the album was 85% done, and LTTOUR 2018 was advertised on the BTY teaser, with cities already on the schedule— a fact that Marco Morini attested to in May 2018.
Zayn did eventually release solo songs that he had written during 1D on Mind of Mine.
Most of the songs that Harry wrote during 1D were shelved (Two Ghosts being the HS1 exception). After Harry signed his FSM contract on the infamous yacht, Irving Azoff arranged a songwriting team for him, including Kid Harpoon and Tyler Johnson who continue to co-write songs with him.
Niall was strategic to stick to the genre of soft pop rock that worked in 1D. Without the burden of Larry Stylinson, Niall was less of a threat to solo Harry Styles and allowed to fly under the radar.
No, it's not that he missed her. Not at all. He, of course, had the best memories about her. And he knew it was for the better: his life was, in fact, way better than before.
No more pressure, no more toxic thoughts, no more jealousy nor arguments.
It's not like their relationship was bad, but it was indeed complicated. And when they both decided to let go, none of them was absolutely sure about it.
A year later, Jaehyun had a fairly easier life and y/n was already working overseas, running her own clothing brand.
Oh but when 'our song' by Niall Horan and Anne Marie played on the radio, both of them would smile and think about each other. Maybe even like an insta story. And he would ask her about her current boyfriend. And she would ask him about his latest tour.
And just like that, they would, each time, let each other go a little more.
When I hear it, I just can't stop smiling
I remember you're gone
Baby, it's just a song on the radio

A/N: I had this idea while listening to this song. Yes, I do like One Direction a lot. And yes, Niall Horan is my favourite member :P
