One Direction was an amazing hit when they first began in 2010, they were popular among mainly teenage girls until member Zayn Malik left in 2015 to start his own career.

Now, One Direction has been on a hiatus, but fans this month are revived as one of the members, Harry Styles, has come out with a new single called “Sign of the Times”. The song was announced on March 31st and was officially released on April 7th for all platforms.

Fans have collectively expressed their excitement on Twitter, and also express whether this means Harry will take a separate route from the band after all. The song is just under six minutes and seems to mimic the style of David Bowie, a slow paced song that has fans singing their praise.

With Harry Styles and Zayn Malik releasing their own music, it seems as though One Direction members are going their separate ways. Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson also seem to be looking into making music of their own, although it is unknown whether they have any major solo ideas in mind.

Not only is he looking into solo music, but Styles will also be debuting in his first film, a World War Two inspired film named Dunkirk directed by Christopher Nolan.

Overall, people are wondering if he will follow the roads paved by old artists like David Bowie or Queen, or if maybe he’ll follow Malik’s footsteps. But, with this new single one thing is clear, his popularity has soared higher than ever in just one day. If he receives this much attention, there is no doubt he will become a bigger and bigger sensation in the music world soon.
