October 19, 20177 yr Seeing Blind is really excellent, I'm looking forward to listening to the album in full tomorrow!
October 20, 20177 yr This is really good! It’s not looking like #1 but hopefully top 3 with strong longevity!
October 20, 20177 yr This is really good! It’s not looking like #1 but hopefully top 3 with strong longevity! How can you possibly state its not looking Number 1 when you don't know any sales figures or even have the first set of midweek figures? If you're basing this on I-tunes sales, then I wouldn't bother as album sales on there are so low. I listened to the first track and thought it was great; will listen to the rest when I get a chance. Hopefully it does well

October 20, 20177 yr I'm seeing a lot of positive comments about this on Twitter and Instagram so I'm hoping it lives up to the hype. This Town and Slow Hands still remain fantastic.

October 21, 20177 yr I'm halfway through this and wasn't really expecting to like it that much based on the singles but "On the Loose" is fantastic! By far the best thing that I've heard from him so far, I can definitely feel the Fleetwood Mac influence in it. "Since We're Alone" also feels very FM. I enjoyed "Seeing Blind" too, I think it would work well as a single, I don't actually know any of Maren's music but her voice pleasantly surprised me. I think they've released completely the wrong songs as singles so far. I still don't like "Slow Hands" but I think it would have made a much better debut single than "This Town" which is an album track at best. I like "Too Much to Ask" but again, it doesn't feel single-worthy. I am glad that it's shaping up to be a decent effort though and hopefully he'll have continuous success with it rather than dropping quickly like Zayn did - although his album remains my favourite by a former 1D member, so far it's miles better than Harry's though.
October 24, 20177 yr He's performing "Seeing Blind" with Maren Morris at the Country Music Awards on November 8th.
October 28, 20177 yr Number 3, and just managed slightly higher opening sales than Zayn. Top 3 is excellent! Zayn’s #1s over here and in USA are not reflective of his success at all as the album barely sold anything on either sides of the Atlantic!
October 30, 20177 yr Wonderful for Niall to get his solo number 1 album in the USA. Really enjoying his album, On the Loose is the stand out. That said,all his music is slow burning. Slow Hands for example was released over a moth before i grew to love it, and now, i have it on constant play.
October 30, 20177 yr All this success One Direction are enjoying across the pond really makes me wonder how Spice Girls would have done if they had stayed together for longer and developed more of a track record in the USA like One Direction did, before going solo. I know the girls never really got a proper push over there apart from Geri with LAM, which is a real shame as some of them had real potential: - When you're gone (with Bryan Adams) - Never be the same again (with Lisa Left Eye Lopez) - I turn to you [it got alot of radio play over there but was not properly released until it was too late - it actually won a Grammy Award!!] - I want you back (with Missy Elliot) - Feels so good / Tell me [RnB was huge in America at the time FSG in particular could have slotted in quite nicely] - Mi chico latino [The Spanish sound was massive in America too at the time] - What took you so long [Fits really well with the country guitar sound over there]
