#ItsPerfect Day
Attention teeNATION: #ItsPerfectDay! One Direction’s newest single Perfect is officially available on streaming platforms like iTunes and Spotify and Directioners have been gushing about it for hours now on social media.
The song starts off with heavy guitars and Louis’ crooning heartbreaking lyrics about how he mightn’t be the type you take home to your mother but how he’s willing to live in the moment with you and make you change your mind tonight.
Harry carries the chorus effortlessly and alludes to his previous relationship with megastar Taylor Swift by saying “if you like midnight driving with the windows down” and “if you’re looking for someone to write your breakup songs about”.
Though the former may be more subtle, music fans will sense lyrical similarity with that line and the opening lines in Swift’s Style and I Wish You Would.
As for the latter lyric about break-up songs, fret not, there’s no bad blood between the two. Harry has said months ago that he sees nothing wrong with Swift or any other musician drawing on their own experiences for songwriting, and Swift seems rather cosy with DJ Calvin Harris.
Harry is not to be left out if a certain mystery girl’s Snapchat posts have anything to say about it. He looked adorable being sleepy-eyed and bundled up in a robe, playing a quiet game of Scrabble, presumably with the girl Directioners are itching to know more about.
Anyhow the single is rightly titled Perfect. The chorus is bursting with beautiful imagery and placed just so over a compelling track that has fans pumped to hear what the rest of the album has to offer.
Give it a listen and weigh in below.
