Niall Horan - No Judgement
Niall Horan dropped by Apple Music's New Music Daily on Friday (Feb. 7) to celebrate the release of his flirty new single, "No Judgement."
The crooner chatted with Zane Lowe about his songwriting process for his upcoming sophomore album, and admitted his got a lot of ideas while backpacking in Asia. "I was coming up with ideas and stuff as I was away, like I always do. Kept the head down, and people were kind of like, 'I respect you, man.' Just being a normal person," he explained. "Then I went back and I got bored and started writing straight away, and I felt like I wrote, like, five or six songs when I got back, and I was like, 'Maybe I should do something with this, 'cause it feels normal.' It feels natural. I'm not trying to write anything crazily in particular. Just, like, this is what I write, the way, the way I most naturally write."
Later in the interview, he shouted out his former One Direction bandmate Louis Tomlinson, who found his own sound and released his debut album Walls on Jan. 31. "As everyone keeps pointing out to him for some reason, everyone else is on their second album. I mean that must be hard to listen to," Horan said. "As we spoke about earlier, you have to go through that cycle. If you don't know what it sounds like, you need to find it. But this is the kind of stuff that he listens to anyway, so it all makes sense."
"And he's got a great bulk of songs and it's going to do well this weekend," Horan continued. "He obviously went through a horrific time, family-wise or, life-wise, but the fact that he got to turn that on its head and, and write about it ... and, you know, make it what is going to be successful album out of it as well sheds some light on it."
Looking back fondly on his time in 1D, Horan called the memories "the most fun of all time."
"It was that crazy and it's very fun," he continued. "You know, it's just certain situations, you know, like when you couldn't leave the hotel or you go to a city and we traveled the world but never seen it type thing. That was the part I always struggled with, because I'm not like, an indoorsy, sit-down, play video games type person. I have to go out and do something. So that's the only part I every struggled with. My dad always says that packed suitcase never came back, you know?"

Do Niall Horan and Harry Styles want One Direction to reunite? In an interview with RTE, Horan said he appreciated the opportunities that being in One Direction offered him. “I don’t think you can regret anything. I went around the world at 16, plucked from Mullingar, as my father says, packed a suitcase and never came back.”
He continued “I’ve got to witness things some artists never will in terms of pandemonium and madness, I’ve had No 1 albums, hit singles. We had a great time and we’ll have an even better time when we do it again.”
In the interview, Horan initially said everyone in the band liked their job. “We’d be absolutely ridiculous not to reform the band. We haven’t really spoken about the ‘whens’ but we do know we will. We have all said individually that we will and I think it would be stupid if we didn’t.”
Did Harry Styles feel the same way?

Harry’s the same, bubbly character. Me and Harry have a similar taste in music, and similar mates. We live down the street from each other in London and LA and we went to an Eagles gig in London last Summer.”
Horan said not everyone in the group reacted to their fame like Styles and himself. “Some people handle things differently. Me and Harry had a great time in the band but I’ve heard some of the boys saying they’ve struggled with it mentally but that’s life. I’ve always been a happy go lucky type person.”
Was being in One Direction ever a challenge? According to Billboard, Horan still feels being in One Direction was challenging at times. “It was that crazy and it’s very fun. You know, it’s just certain situations, you know, like when you couldn’t leave the hotel or you go to a city and we traveled the world but never seen it type thing.”
He elaborated “That was the part I always struggled with, because I’m not like, an indoorsy, sit-down, play video games type person. I have to go out and do something. So that’s the only part I [ever] struggled with.”

Niall joined us at The BRITs red carpet and accidentally mistook the Harry Styles biscuit, for Jim Carrey!
MULLINGAR musician Niall Horan will perform a one night only fundraising gig at the London Irish Centre (LIC) next month.

Announcing the gig this afternoon, Horan said: “I am absolutely delighted to support the London Irish Centre. I have huge respect for the work they do, from helping the vulnerable to running the very best gigs, and I am excited to be able to help them develop a brilliant new home for all things Irish in London.”

In the inaugural episode of GQ's 'Vs The Universe', One Direction's Mr Nice, Niall Horan, takes on all the questions fans really want to know. From who would be the Vice President to his President and what he most misses about his native Ireland, to his favourite Shawn Mendes quality and daily skincare routine. We really have covered all the bases with this one... Niall Horan is trying on his third outfit choice of the day. Dressed in a cuban-collared shirt and cream tailored trousers, he looks every bit the suave, gentlemanly cover star. His hair, which, for years, was bleached, marking him out as “the blond one” in One Direction, is now his natural shade of brown. Horan is effusively polite and incredibly easygoing: he's maintained his reputation as One Direction’s consummate nice guy for over a decade.
