They did Niall and Louis dirty until midnight memories tbh. You know, how you noticed Louis act 'high' in the Torn perrformance. He wasn't even singing, he was lipsyncing cuz he wasn't there for rehearsals as he got bitten by a sea urchin earlier and was in the hospital. Louis did mention this subtly in the movie, when he said that he's started sliding more towards the writing part of the song as he can't give into the singing part much at that moment, which makes me so fucking sad.

They all had potential at the beginning, that’s why Simon put them together. But it’s a fact that Liam sang most of their songs at the beginning, it’s because he had the most stable vocals I.e. near perfect pitch control. This carried on through their first album when he started 13 out of 15 songs. But once they all developed their vocals more they got more parts. I think by their second album the vocal parts could have been spread more evenly to include Louis and Niall.

Sorry guys but back then Liam’s vocals were the most stable, that’s why he sang the most and led the most in the xfactor and UAN eras. But Harry sang just as much and Zayn as well. I definitely think that by their second album the vocal parts could have been more evenly distributed to include Niall and Louis. I really think Simon wanted to market them as an authentic band and he wanted them to be taken more seriously in the music industry, hence he focused on their vocals. I really believe that’s why Liam’s voice was show cased more. The vocals that fans love the most, don’t always equal what is considered to be vocal technical proficiency in the music industry.

I love these performances. You can really see by just watching these performances how they came together and see their growth as a band. They yelled so well. They sang a couple of very well known British songs, including songs from Elton John and the Beatles for example. Not sure if you knew that. Mmm. Well. Louis had stepped on a sea urchin and had spent the day at the hospital instead of practising the song. His foot was swollen and I'm guessing he was on pain meds. Also. At the judges Houses, when they had just formed, Simon talked about how Harry has that special charm, and that interviewers (media) are going to love him. He was already showing who was his leading man. About Liam (I don't remember which episode probably before putting them in a group) he said something about how he had reached his full potential and didn't see him develop from where he was which by my interpretation was him saying he had no interest in Liam even though he was by far the best singer among them at that point and he lead the other boys through the competition by starting the songs and was sort of like the group conducter. (Liam also started most songs on their first album.) Zayn became the "human echo", they actually made that into a skit... Niall got few solos but Louis got none... Well, one small together with Liam. It would have been a dream to get a solo from each of them like you said on the "You are so beautiful" line. Did Niall and Louis even sing at all on that song?? And yeah, Louis not getting any solos on X Factor started the whole Louis can't sing thing. Do you see why Louis having a solo, however short, means a lot to his fans (speaking as his fan)? Yeah. We were robbed. Of him and Niall both. :( The spotlight was always going to be Harry. That's not a slight against Harry, but it just feels so unfair and unneccessary as the others had something special too. But one lead/focus is the way most boybands works. So. Yeah that's just how it is.

Simon always showed interest in Liam, but he didn’t pick him as a solo contestant because he felt that Liam was one dimensional.

None of the guys were picked as solo contestants, so they all must have lacked something as far as Simon was concerned. But still Simon felt that they all had the xfactor and potential which is why he didn’t let them go and formed a band. Liam wasn’t their conductor, he just has and had near perfect pitch control right from the beginning, so as a business man Simon was always going to pick him to start their songs.

Zayn had a beautiful voice right from the beginning, but nerves affected him really badly. Even if he hadn’t spoken about his nerves himself, you can clearly hear it in his voice. A friend of mine also has near perfect pitch control (just like Liam), having vocals that are not affected by nerves is important to start songs under pressure, it provides stability for the others that follow. Also Liam had the most experience performing live… that’s just fact. After his first try at xfactor he got vocal coaching and started gigging. It made business sense for him to start the songs in the fetus era, especially if as I suspect Simon was planning on taking them global. Simon pushed their most stable vocals and their most popular band member ego Lirry. The guys were all branded in respect of their personalities and look, but singing first (in my opinion) is not branding.

No conspiracy here, these 2 guys were just selling more views, that's it. The TV show makers analyze all feedback and just do what they have to do to get more views. Btw, Niall had quite large solos on 2 or 3 of their performances but Louis had none(( Harry didn't have any solo till 5th live show because he got severe stage fright it made him sick. Liam was the only singer in the group who had vocal lessons before the show, sure he was the most reliable to start the song. The way Harry and Zayn could match him and the whole band was so synced in in just few weeks is kinda amazing. Their harmonies were really poor at the beginning and quite average at the end of the show. I don't think they seemed that promising to the show creators at the beginnig. It's the way they worked hard right after the show that made them who they were. Their sound at the X Factor tour just a 1.5 months after the season's end was amazing! And both Niall and Louis had solos there btw)) So it was all the tv show making, you can't force the tv watchers to like all boys equally, they picked their faves and the show makers just followed that. It changed when they started a real career. Thank god, this is one of the most harmonic band of all time, they all had their time to shine, they all wrote, they all had their signature songs throughout 1D cadence and naturally they all have successful solo careers now. It's really rare when things like that happen, usually it's just this one guy/girl who hets big and the others are forgotten and have to start amother careers.

I understand that some were better than others at the time, but I just feel as if on a show like that they should try to have it equal. Once they started making their own music, i’m totally fine if one person is singing more than the rest, as at that point it’s established and they’re all in it together. just like louis & liam writing most of the songs. i just wish xfactor was a bit different. i definitely understand your comments. thank you!

I can’t even try to enjoy it when it’s just Harry and Liam singing. If they’re so in love with their voices and just want THEM to sing then just do a duo, not a whole group of FIVE. So freaking unfair to the others, I wanted to hear more of Niall and Louis. Ffs…

I get what you are saying, but the xfactor is not just about vocals, all the guys had immense potential and brought something special to the band. But regardless of having the xfactor, they had to be marketed above just their manufactured elements, so Simon promoted vocal proficiency and the fan favourite above everything else. He’s a business man so we can dislike him, but he was tapping into the money making elements of the band.

@@LB-ih7hn Of course it’s always business with him. Mr. “whatever gets me money is the best option” despite how damaging this can be to artists and their self-confidence when they’re just used for their cute looks and funny personalities. Maybe that would’ve worked on some other talent show that pushes the comedy aspect but from what I know xfactor is mainly for those who love SINGING.

Not to be that guy but it’s true that Liam, zayn and Harry were much better then Niall and louis. They’re still good, much better then I’ll ever be but I think Simon made a mistake in making them a group of 5. Obviously it ended up working out great but in that very moment those two were miles behind the other three.

When you watch this x factor thing you understand that no matter how talent they are, they had a plan to make harry the star & the most popular one (with all the love to him but he's ot the only talented or handsome one) Like even at the very beginning liam &eayn was as talented if not more

I feel like Harry tried to over-do it at times in this, like he’d try to outshine everyone and try to do like a run or something but it’d turn out to be flat/sound like he’s just screaming. And I wasn’t really a fan of when they’re all supposed to be harmonizing together but his mic is the loudest, his voice sounds so out of place. Liam was clearly the one who had the most control in his voice back then..
@LB-ih7hn3 жыл бұрын
You’re so right. Liam definitely had the most beautiful and technically proficient vocals in the beginning. I think Harry had the most fans even then, so they tried to push him to sing more, even though his vocals weren’t as stable. But they usually gave his parts a little more musical instrument support, so even if he shouted or sounded unstable, it was somewhat masked.

Its funny. 1d fans love to moan about Harry, Liam and Zayn singing too much whilst having pity parties for Louis and occasionally Niall. But they never throw pity parties for Niall, Zayn and Harry when their songwriting was kept off albums in favour of Louis and Liams...and as 1d fans say Louis was the boss, I guess it was mostly him not letting the others be included because, as he said, he wanted to shine in it. Its a strange double standard.
@lovelyl38473 жыл бұрын
I’m pretty sure Louis isn’t the one choosing what gets put on the album and what doesn’t. They all wrote songs, their management/label decide what to keep and what to throw away. They did include songs Harry and Niall wrote on. Though I remember Zayn once said they wouldn’t let him keep any of his songs bcz they weren’t the style they were looking for. Louis and Liam wrote a lot together so it’s inevitable that they had the most songs to get accepted. The songs they wrote were probably the ones that fit whichever style their management was looking for the most. Don’t get so rude and defensive for no reason, blame whoever chooses what songs go on their albums. Not Louis or Liam.

What are you talking about? It wasn't Louis' fault, they all wrote songs but a lot of them weren't accepted by their management. I guess the ones written by Louis and Liam were the style, the management was looking for. Before blaming someone, be sure and aware of what you're saying.

@@lexs444 umm I don’t go around reading and replying to every comment? It’s not my fault people are blaming Harry and Liam for it.

You can defend Harry and Liam from the unnecessary hate without hating on other artists for such a thing they’re not even in charge of. Since you know that it’s not right to hate on Harry and Liam for a thing out of their control, why did you do the same thing those haters did to hate on Louis when you could’ve used your brain and quickly realized that he wasn’t in control of that either?
