One of the singles perhaps - Story of My Life, Night Changes, Little Things, or maybe even Gotta Be You delve into the album tracks too if you wish! I think 1D ballads can often by the dark horses in their discography. Obviously Story of My Life is a 1D classic but Night Changes feels like one of their most underrated tracks, when I'd say it's their best ballad personally! Shoutout to More Than This which absolutely should've been their second single over Gotta Be You, as well as Taken which is a big favourite off the first album.

Are we including Don’t Forget Where You Belong? If so it’s my favourite of their ballads. This post has been edited by LMFan: 9th January 2022, 12:12 AM

Really heartfelt and I love the instrumentation and simplistic video. ZAYN's falsetto is quite hit-or-miss for me but he really nails that note towards the end

I forgot how many amazing ballads they have tbh

HELP I had been convincing myself that “One Thing” was the second single- but also “Story Of My Life” is my choice for best 1D ballad but can we take some time to appreciate “Summer Love”? BEAUTIFUL

BEAUTIFUL To be fair, it was the second single in your neck of the woods! The UK were put through Gotta Be You first Loving some of these album track shouts - Over Again and Summer Love are both super underrated!
