This is how most boy bands are. There are one or two that have stronger voices and the others are "background voices." Though some let others sing a lone more. *shrug* They use the strong points of the group. It makes sense.

[@cleanaturalady]

It is so interesting how the X-factor really tried to put Liam out there as the Frontman. And then the actual general public got to seen them all and they picked Harry as the favorite/frontman of the group because he always stood out as the one with the charisma and showmanship. Now here we are all these years later and he is the one with the huge career and the rest have varying degrees of success but not are even close to his comercial success

[@dianvarughese3556]

Zayn would’ve if him or his company promoted his songs as much.

[@whatsthematterwu]

@@dianvarughese3556 zayn could never

[@MahiTanMazy]

Liam was the one that had the most experience at that point, the rest of them had almost no singing coaching and so were very raw. Harry naturally is the most successful given his all round ability, though for a period of about 2011-2013 I'd say Zayn's star shone the brightest, he was the one belting all the big notes in their songs. But then he burnt out / became miserable and has struggled with public fame ever since. I'll caveat that by saying that both Niall and Zayn's debut albums reached no.1 on the USA album chart, which is a big achievement in itself and both albums were very good.

[@alyssaleahy6284]

@@dianvarughese3556 I feel as though Zayn stunted his growth as an artist when he left the band simple because he was the first to leave and thus broke up the band. Harry supposedly wanted to leave first but waited because he knew that was going to happen. I think Zayn could have had the success that harry has now if he wasn't the first to leave.

[@sunnysister806]

I hope Zayne rises again- all of them. I think each of them has such talent. I’m an older woman and yet I can see the talent and incredible energy they all have. I’m happy for Harry’s success. I want the others to do just as well.

Well, relatively at the beginning he tried but it really wasn’t great. I still think they could have just skipped him. Liam had just the most competent and full rounded voice, although Harry-despite some accuracy issues- had already a great vibrato and great tone, also he was able to take over the rockier shorty parts. Zayn lacked a bit of stamina in his voice but was able to do the quieter parts phenomenally and some great runs, Niall didn’t have any vibrato or special sound to his voice but fit hit all the notes. The 4 of them really deserved their spot in my opinion!

he was always my fav

[@rain-zy9oy]

They all have amazing voices but Zayn and Harry had more pleasant tones. I also think the type of music that Louis makes now is very pop and the reason Harry and Zayn aere more popular is because their music is very unique, Zayn being r and b and harry having his different style which catches people's eyes more than the rest.

I don’t think people realize that Louis voice is what makes the Chorus of 1D songs sound so good. I watched a video where he couldn’t be at a performance because he was sick, and it sounded so bland. Without Louie and his voice one direction would have been missing something. He is amazing at harmonizing and his solos are amazing. I don’t understand why people don’t think he has a good voice.

I'm sorry to prove you wrong, Louis could sing and sing very well too... Did u see the first first audiution, they didn't even let him finish coz he was so good, he got all yeses not Like Harry or Nial... Anyway the audition pisses me off coz it luks lyk some people are singing main parts than others... So Yes, Louis can sing maybe he was tired of always fighting to get some part and he had just given up!

[@tiahawkins8247]

Liam had the strongest start. Watching this, I would have thought he would have the best chance at a solo career. But the others were just late bloomers.

[@camrynbraye33]

Tia Hawkins I was thinking the same thing! I jumped on the bandwagon right around the time the first album released, and it’s interesting to see how Liam began as the lead but with every album, it became more Zayn or Harry, depending on the song up until Zayn left. Liam started as the most polished and pitch perfect but Zayn and Harry always had more pleasant tones, so in my opinion, when they got their pitch problems under control, their producers or whoever was in charge recognized that Harry and Zayn’s voices were actually superior to Liam’s because an interesting tone plus good pitch is what makes for an all around good vocalist🤷🏼‍♀️ that’s what I think happened at least, could be wrong!
