Posted June 29, 201411 yr So while we're all tripping on how amazing or how insanely bad some of the songs may be on 'Up All Night' with the Boot and Immune currently occurrin', let us go back to the start of One Direction and their début album! Did you love it? Did you loathe it? What songs took you by complete surprise after 'What Makes You Beautiful' and 'Gotta Be You'? Did 'One Thing' and 'More Than This' (I put my head down when I say that in case Joseph is lurking :kink:) give an overall ~feel~ of the album? We had the exclusive HMV slipcases for this album (as we also did for the second). Obviously Liam's is the best for this era (dat Zayn shade :o) - Zayn's cover is amazing, but his is best for the 'Take Me Home' era. Did you all go out and buy every version of the album there was to find like some particular Directioners did? Join us in the tenth part of #THROWBACK as we take a look back at the boys' first album 'Up All Night', discuss the highs, discuss the lows, and discuss everything there is to discuss about everything discussable in terms of how amazing Zayn and Harry's solos are, where they went wrong trying to make Liam the lead singer of the group, etc. Let us know what you think!

June 29, 201411 yr I did enjoy the album at the time but I haven't really gone back to it much over the past couple of years. 'What Makes You Beautiful' and 'Stole My Heart' are the GO TO tracks when I want some classic 1D.
June 29, 201411 yr MORE THAN THIS WAS NOT A UK SINGLE Still such a solid album though, their 2nd best out of three IMO. My rankings: 11.0 What Makes You Beautiful - still their best song. 04.0 Gotta Be You - and what a comedown. 09.0 One Thing 10.0 More Than This 08.5 Up All Night 07.0 I Wish 06.5 Tell Me a Lie 10.0 Taken 08.5 I Want 08.0 Everything About You 07.5 Same Mistakes 09.0 Save You Tonight 09.5 Stole My Heart -- 08.0 Stand Up 09.0 Moments A few filler-y tracks but mostly FAB.
