One Direction are back with their debut single

22 comments

Hit X Factor band One Direction are back with their debut single, 'What Makes You Beautiful', and revealed that there is much more to follow.

One Direction have revealed that they've spent most of the year, after the end of the X Factor 2010 and the X Factor Live Tour, in LA, working on following up their massive TV success with a brilliant debut album.

'What Makes You Beautiful' is the lead single from the album, and band member Harry Styles has said, "We're so excited to get the single finally out there. When we were recording in the studio we knew instantly that we wanted this track to be our first single."

Zayn Malik added: "I think the album is going to surprise a few people. It's very individual to us. We wanted to make sure that it was our sound."

And Louis Tomlinson also claims that the boys "said 'no' to Simon over at least one song". He continued, "He'd much prefer us to be honest. Despite what people think, he doesn't want to be surrounded by lots of 'yes' men.

"We get quite a lot of freedom and a say in what we do. Once we found our sound, we told Simon we wanted to keep it really young. Simon wants us to put a stamp on our music in our own way, so he appreciates our input."

'What Makes You Beautiful' is available to buy from September 11th, and you can watch the video here.
