I've eaten my words and What a Feeling has been playing on repeat, you guys were right but Is till think the song should've been moved towards the front of the album k that is all #alexrayisoverparty and NOW the Drag Me Down live & Home reaction are live on Patreon :) www.patreon.com/posts/drag-me-down-77211580?Link&

[@Peacewelldkhar]

OKKK 😂

[@AnaLuiza-tb9yl]

I KNEW IT (the tag, stopppp

[@warriorgirl709]

Are you going to react to Niall’s albums by chance? He has something in the works right now and is teasing everybody! Also I love your videos ❤!

[@sirsimonthesentry4787]

Phew! I was starting to worry… 😂😂

[@user-lc3wy7ih8f]

yes!! glad you've come around. what a feeling will always be in my top 3, not only on this album but out of all their albums!

[@Lovely.tttt300]

The Louis Tomlinson fan community appreciates you freaking out about every high note he does

[@lexiw3660]

The excited “Louis!” every time he has a part is so real 😂

[@user-lc3wy7ih8f]

I love how a song will just be fine and then all of a sudden Louis comes in on the bridge or outro and blows everything out of the water. like, hey angel is just okay until the moment he comes in with that high harmony on the bridge and takes it up a notch. and his outro at the end of olivia is insane, they really saved the best for last on that one. his raspy voice in I want to write you a song, is the thing that I want to hear every night before I go to sleep and the first thing I want to hear when I wake up every morning. his part in drag me down brings in his punk edge which is so hot. I love end of the day and love you goodbye already but his bridges bring them to whole other level. him singing the second and last chorus on AM is perfect too and he really deserved to do more of the choruses because damn... Also...trying to think of which is funnier: you joking about getting a Lilo ass tattoo, or Louis' already existing ass tattoo of a penguin with headphones that he got when he was drunk lmao

[@Marvelous436]

Wait did he really get a penguin tattoo?

[@user-lc3wy7ih8f]

@@Marvelous436 yes, he got it in 2016. he’s talked about it in interviews, saying it’s probably his most embarrassing tattoo haha

[@airamlara]

Amen! All hail King Louis!!!!

Thank you ❤

[@daniellewhite4619]

Not all heroes wear capes

[@loussun28_]

History was a goodbye to fans, long way down to One Direction, Walking in the wind to Zayn and AM was a goodbye to each other AND I THINK IT'S TIME FOR ME TO SAY GOODBYE TO THIS WORLD BCZ I MISS THEM SM AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO DO THIS TO US 😭

[@Mary-si5np]

The song ‘Olivia’ was recorded at Abbey Road Studios, the same place the Beatles recorded their album. Harry wrote the song.

[@pricilavences4020]

The song Oilvia was recorded at Addely Road studios the same place the beats recorded theri adum Harry wrote the song

[@moonygirl76]

Every part with Louis is my favorite part. Fun hanging with you guys! I think you should do the earlier albums too!

[@alex_ray_music]

We will love 🥰 thanks for hanging out with us!!!

[@rociogonzalez3266]

I love how you always say "Louis" when his solo starts, you're so real for that, you get it

[@juliavaughn4638]

harry’s voice in the bridge of walking in the wind BRO. gets me everytime there’s no way someone sounds that good also, let’s talk about how underrated niall’s voice is.

[@katehakanson310]

History and AM both were never gonna be the most streamed on the album because they HURT TOO MUCH, Alex!!! You gotta understand, we're too emotionally attached to 1D for our own good around here lol

[@alex_ray_music]

Honestly I get it now 😅 it’s cause pain. That makes sense

[@pricilavences4020]

History and AM btoth were never gonna the most stereamed on the album because they HuRT TOO MUCH Alex !!! You you gotta understand we too emotionally attached to 1D for our onw good around here lol

[@sarah18328]

"Why are they like: it's okay, you're okay, and then Louis." Feel you 😭every time 😭

[@kaylab2820]

They performed Infinity (amongst other songs) in the live lounge and Harry hit the high notes whilst being sick and on vocal rest!

[@alexrose20]

If I Could Fly is one of their best songs but I can't listen to it without bawling

[@mayasymonds]

I’ve been listening to this album for 8 years and you guys have given me a whole new appreciation for it… I cannot explain it ❤

[@pricilavences4020]

l ve been listening to this album for 8 years and you guys have me a whole new appreciation of l cannot explain it ❤️

[@xeniyafilimonova8535]

I love Harry's voice so much! It's like my comfort voice or smth. It just makes me so happy!

[@pricilavences4020]

l love Harry s voice so much it s ilke my confrort voice or smth lt just makes me so happy !

[@katehakanson310]

You guys doing a Harry impression kills me EVERY TIME 😝

[@alex_ray_music]

HAHA WE CANT RESIST

[@mariegalvan2]

THIS ALBUM HAS MY HEART

[@teampyt8424]

This album has my whole body 🩷

[@carolinadelgadodelblanco1022]

I’m kind of surprise that none in the chat related “up all night” name of their first album to “made in the am” their last album and being am their last song. THIS THOUGHT HAVE ME IN TEARS

[@NCSUJenny]

Love the Louis and Niall on this album. They found their sound when they weren't relying on Harry and Zayn so much.

[@mariegalvan2]

Louis wrote ALL of Love You Goodbye 🥺♥️

[@alex_ray_music]

LOUEH

[@julielabosky]

@@alex_ray_music one of my all time 1D favorites. I think it very honest and very relatable regarding the end of a relationships at any age. Of course, written only the way Louis can. Everything about this song is awesome... and yes.. live Louis would change the words. :)

[@DingodileinCahoots]

I’m new to them as well. I happened by some of their crazy videos and it made me look into how they got their start. I wish they were never marketed as a boy band, just a band…or they let them grow out of the stigma. This album is amazing. I love every song. This is a band! Their harmonies are awesome. They needed to do their solo work, I get that. Then they can come back together once in awhile to make new music. That’s my pipe dream.

[@alex_ray_music]

We share the same dream 😉

[@RachJCullen]

I so wish they could have performed Temporary Fix. Flipping LOVE that song - it goes at a hundred miles an hour and is sheer joy!!

[@paulajana5966]

I love your reactions to Louis´s High Notes. THANKS!!!

[@Lovely.tttt300]

Omg I was hyped for that drag me down reaction of Louis coming in and you didn’t disappoint hehe

[@wendyo4124]

alex: did they say they were gonna be gone for a while?? me: hysterically laughing while sobbing to the point i can’t breathe. MEN ARE LIARS ALEXX!!!😭😭

[@beccasalt8960]

😂😭

[@harshxt1218]

As a directioner , your reaction was SO ACCURATE. I really loved your reaction so much I was just searching for "made in the am reaction" and I found this channel. WE LOVE U 😭 plus blake is a music genius ofc both of you

[@nesta8505]

I love so freaking much how you react to every single word that Louis sings just bc SAME!! I can't thank you enough for these videos, love you Aleeeeexx!!!!

[@karim_lt28]

Es una pena que Home no estuviera en este disco, porque hasta el día de hoy sigo pensando en que hubiera sido un smash hit, es para mí, la mejor canción de 1D. Y este álbum es tan nostálgico cómo bonito. 🤍

[@Maya-bd8ie]

Thank you so much, I loved every single second of this reaction!😍 it’s my fave album, i listened to it all year of 2022, it just means so much to me.🤍and your videos are my new favorite thing now🌟

[@amyaeschbach3581]

So many times I wanted to be next to you giving you a hug Alex! It seems I love every part of you these days. Love your channel. And I’m always here for it. I hope you do live version of Harry in Tokyo singing if I could fly. He always stop singing through the part that Louis sings. And you did get the message that home was apparently written by Louis as an answer to the song. And that was supposed to be on this album but was pulled and then Louis himself leaked it!!❤🫶🏻✌️☀️

[@mfish1693]

Have you watched one of the live performances of AM? Harry's live vocals are what really made me fall in love with the song. It is my favorite 1d song of all time so I'm glad you appreciated it!

[@yousra8728]

it's the little 5sos jokes in the middle... I LOVE YOU GUYS !!!

[@marilynmarie7353]

Hey alex! So excited to see your reaction to the album! Still waiting on blakes acoustic cover of No control….

[@alex_ray_music]

MARILYN STOP ITTTTTT

[@marilynmarie7353]

I will get my cover alex. My brain simply cannot handle only 20 seconds. We need a quiver/crying compilation as a masochistic comfort video please?

[@ifrababur]

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE TURN IT UUUUUUUUP!!!!

[@Shodanza]

I'd love to see reactions to their solo projects, it's really cool to hear what they've all done since then.

[@h.intercalada]

love your videos! about the break thing: yes, Louis did say in a recent interview that the ones who wanted to stop that said that it was just a small break, and that he asked for like a time window but no one gave him an answer. So yeah, he believed it was just a break bc that's what they said to him. I'm truly happy that he finally realized that it wasn't true and went for a proper solo career, although it's still unfair that they couldn't be completely honest with him, esp considering he says at that time it was when he was starting to gain more confidence.

[@MJ-ld6wg]

Most on point 5SOS impressions ever

[@alex_ray_music]

It’s in my blood

[@angelawilliams1404]

This album is *such* a journey! honestly, I don't know if, back in the day, I would have survived 1D live time.

[@Grace-cs5sk]

This album is so good My favorite songs are - If I could fly - Love you goodbye - Wolves - What a Feeling - Infinity - Perfect -and At the End of the Day (I love every song on this album) But if I have to pick my least favorite I would have to say Hey Angel (I still like but I like the other tracks a bit better)

[@lagarance8]

i enjoy your videos, especially the moments where you get overly excited when louis tomlinson opens his mouth because yeah me too

[@karolinajarczak576]

not me watching this for the thousand times cause i love your reaction to my fav boys ever

[@swilhare]

WITW was the song that I was listening to while my dad was dying from cancer. It's so bittersweet to me ❤️

[@xmoomoo9158]

That’s sad… Sorry for your loss❤️

[@nuriamatos14]

IWRYAS is the goodbye to the fans that we didn't know we needed..."I wanna write you a song one to make you're heart remember me so any time i'm gone you can listen to my voice and sing along" AUGHH PAINNN Also as someone that finds happiness and comfort in these boys since I was 7 (god i'm getting old, i've been here for 11y like what? haha), evrey time i hear the bridge of walking in the wind it feels like they're telling me like even if we're not together anymore we'll still be there for you whenever you need us, like through their music yk, and that really hurts.

[@aziliz1903]

yeaaaaah a new one direction video!!!! Louis supremacy as always 😫😫

[@aquablushgirl]

Liam in Never Enough gets me every time - and don't get me started on If I Could Fly, it breaks your heart.

[@yanas2928]

For whatever reason AM is my favorite song, the moment I heard it, it was like boom it's perfect

[@vickipeterson3422]

You know I love your videos. I missed this on stream so glad I could catch it here. I love your album breakdowns. One thing I like is how you explain the placements of the songs on the album and the reasoning behind it or why it does or doesn’t work. It’s nice to get some insightful views.

[@МарияЕвдокимова-ф5ю]

Your reactions are always extremely enjoyable :) Thank you!

[@tamibogea4282]

Another great review!! I really enjoyed all the "Louiss" appreciation comments bc he f*cking deserves it. Thanks for acknowledging how Coldplay Infinity truly sounds. U convinced me: Made in the AM is the best song in this album. And Louis' bridge in Love U Goodbye is a song in itself!! Least fav is Wolves. And imo the musical references for What a Feeling and Walking in the Wind are Fleetwood Mac e Paul Simon's Graceland...

[@jmcega9005]

Was re-watching this and the part that you said if someone cheked if Louis is ok because of his lyrics, and after the documentary he released it was very obvious that he wasn't. He didn't want 1d to end.

[@anitralarae_mahjacat]

"What a Feeling" is one of those my brain plucked from Michaels Frame Shop Musak and adored.

[@itsonlyforthebrave]

BLAKE DANCING TO WHAT A FEELING KILLED ME MORE THAN THE ENTIREITY OF THE REST OF THE VIDEO I CAN'T-

[@sirsimonthesentry4787]

Watched on your Patreon & here- loved it! Was waiting for this! ❤

[@kara4026]

Long Way Down is my favorite off this album and I’m so happy you loved it! I love the parallels between what happens lyrically and sonically on “built it up so high and now I’m falling, it’s a long way down” 🥹

[@karim_lt28]

So true, it's such a beautiful beautiful song and sooo underrated.

[@jilldickson8053]

Brilliant lyrically, Louis is such an underrated songwriter

[@seokjinnied]

i listened to 1d a Ton when they were active but was never a directioner and now seeing what they've gone through as fans im like please i want to hug them

[@aayushikandpal9807]

46:16 NIALL'S VOIVE ALWAYS BREAKS ME

[@sophiasleep8960]

alexs chat makes me laugh so hard

[@alex_ray_music]

I don't even look at them out of fear lololol

[@centuries97]

my favorite it's Love you goodbye. The line: my heart it's already breaking, baby go on, twist the knife.... no words Ps: I'm sorry for my english, I whatch all your videos from Spain!

[@alex_ray_music]

Omg don’t say sorry!! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment in English and for watching my videos! So much love to you 🤍

[@milagrossteinmann9176]

YESSSS JUST WHAT I NEEDED

[@bayleeves]

the way i want to see you react to the up all night album after this so you can see the difference in their voices 🥺 also as much as it wasn’t their best album, there are some bangers on that album (stole my heart my beloved ❤️)

[@bayleeves]

15:21 alex i love u and everything you say 😂😂😂

[@bayleeves]

15:40 he put his whole harrussy into those runs

[@bayleeves]

24:24 i wish i could catch ur streams bc you’re so much fun i want to hang out with u fr 😩😩😩

[@bayleeves]

35:01 fave is A.M and least fave is Wolves 🫣 sorry not sorry blake

[@kara4026]

stole my heart is a BOP

[@zarryspaces]

For me, Walking in the Wind is something which is DEFFO for Zayn. If you listen to Good Years, from Icarus Falls, you'll understand it... I mean I know we'll be alright, child, Just close your eyes and see --> I close my eyes and see a crowd of a thousand tears(and take this with the context of how Zayn felt/his situation in 2014-15-16) MITAM breaks my heart so much, not just because it was a 4-member album, but mostly because the said four members gave SO many implications that somewhere this album was meant a LOT for Zayn.

[@adriparnapaul5794]

The start of Never enough is my ringtone... It's kind of a joke to scare people every time someone calls... Starting with AaHHHUah

[@sandiewarren1292]

😂😂Blake just wandering around aimlessly 😂😂

[@alex_ray_music]

Lol alwaysssss 😂

[@Iamsome61]

I have really enjoyed this, thank you!❤️

Watched your whole MITAM response earlier, then on YT and now this… liking, loving…

[@rossyleon2661]

It was fine fine fine HIT ME LIKE A TRUCK

[@louvelvet]

ahh im so excited for this!! 🫶🏼

[@riinakorri7073]

i love A.M. so much, i could listen to it over and over

[@wendyo4124]

okay i’ve been sick and i couldn’t watch but i decided to watch today as a birthday treat to myself.

[@wendyo4124]

also liam’s story from them would absolutely wreck you. ngl he’s still going through it

[@pricilavences4020]

Okay i ve been sick and i couldn’t watch but i decided to watch today as a birthday treat to myself

Home should be on this too please! It’s Louis’, so you have to do it

[@issheokk]

What a feeling ~ my fav one d song❤

[@snehath9611]

The wasting time in IICF always gets me....especially after My Policeman🥺❤️

[@clairecarscallen]

I know this reply is a year late but the wasting time reference from H talking about My Policeman kills me. It’s the story of my life. I think of Harry giving that answer in the Q&A so often.

[@sasankakasun]

We Love ONE DIRECTION!!!

[@Stasluv123]

Completely fell in love with you watching this!!!

[@alex_ray_music]

the feeling is mutual

[@marshasweigart8506]

I appreciate your Louis love😀💙!

[@kellymcgraw5041]

Alex wrote this for Louis. He has even cried playing it life.

[@thetannaree]

Re: Blake and Pina Colada song comparison, yes! Just like Gotye “Someone I Used to Know” is a different version of Hot Line Bling 😉

[@sadikshya8609]

Besides their reaction, the blue green username of chat is sending me 😂😂

[@ld0991]

Fav -whatever song is playing at the moment

[@itsonlyforthebrave]

whoever commented about the getting excited about Louis thing clearly has no taste. That's my favourite part of every video

[@julielabosky]

Listening to History with you It really hits me this is Louis personal song to the fans. With everything I have read and seen, he really believed it was a short hiatus. I agree... it wasn't fair Louis career was delayed because he "never got the Memo"

[@allegraarvizu3458]

Just to clarify every time anyone gets excited when Louis Tomlinson opens his mouth a fairy is born and climate change decreases so...

[@wendyo4124]

when blake mentioned rock me i screamed💀💀 lmfaooo goodluck on that one

[@ACHS300]

My favorites are History, if I could fly, walking in the wind, and infinity. My Least favorite is hey angel.

[@missrebeccay]

We all should know and have agreed by now that Louis makes the song what it is. His vocals are wonderful. He adds that extra sprinkle of surprise in songs that it needs.

[@wendyo4124]

also they left a whole bunch of songs out this album, that’s one of the reasons it doesn’t really have a “theme” if that makes sense

[@Lex13p]

MITAM is like a love hate relationship because I loved this album it is one of my favs but I hate that yk zayn isn't in it but also so happy for him he deserved better and glad he left. Also Walking in the wind will forever hurt me like a bitch. I love your reactions and would love if you would react to Zayn or Niall album. Lotts of LOVE
