The solo debut of Harry Styles appears to be going exactly as he expected, since sales figures somewhat disappointing that it has achieved so far with its simple "Sign of the Times" they are now joined suspicion of a possible plagiarism in another issue of their eponymous debut album, "Ever since New York".
As fans of the British band Badfinger, guitar chords of the song that the former member of One Direction presented the weekend on "Saturday Night Live" are very similar to those of the song 1971 "Baby Blue" the band, a resemblance that has become the subject of debate in social networks.
"This is the last thing we need Harry. His solo release has not gone exactly as he had planned and this is just another distraction. It feels very proud of his new music, and being accused of plagiarizing a guitar riff would hurt a lot, "says a source told the Sun.
At the moment, Harry Styles stays out of controversy, focusing on promoting his new job with television appearances and in depth interview with Rolling Stone magazine, in which he talks about his romance with Taylor Swift, his good wishes for former partner of One Direction, Zayn Malik, and future of the British quartet.
On that subject so delicate, Styles is careful not to end the hopes of millions of fans gathered to see him one day with Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson.
"I love our band and never dare to rule out something for the future. The group has changed my life, I have given everything," he claimed in extensive conversation with the specialist music publication, which justifies break that he and the other boys decided to take last year as the best decision you could make in your situation.
"I did not want to overwhelm our fan base. If you are a short person view, you might think it's best to go out on tour, but all of us we valued too the group to let that happen. Eventually you realize that you are exhausted and do not want to end people's faith in you. "
About Taylor Swift
It's no secret that Taylor Swift often inspired by their former partners to compose their albums, nor that his songs "Style" and "Out of the Woods" is an ode to his media romance with Harry Styles. However, what was not known until now was the opinion of a member of One Direction on its protagonist in the discography of the Nashville paper.
Well, although it refuses to confirm or deny that the lyrics of these songs are on it, the British insists that "glad" if their courtship served at least to push the singer to write two of his best known songs .
"I do not know if they're about me or not, but the point is that she is so good that [the songs] are everywhere. I myself write about my experiences, we all do. I would consider myself lucky if all [that live] he helped create those issues. that's what moves you. it's the hardest thing to say, and it's the last thing I'm talking about. it is something that is between two people. I never tell anyone everything [what happened], "he said the artist Rolling Stone magazine.
The words that the singer of "Sign of the Times" has devoted his ex-girlfriend in the same conversation shows that, although I think not return the favor airing their intimacies on his new album, has no regrets about his relationship considering that all vital experience is enriching in one way or another.
"There are things that do not work. There may be many things that are good and bad at the same time. When I write songs about things like that, I like to assess positively the time we spent together. I prefer to celebrate more than the fact that it was something intense and I had a chance to feel something, rather than lamenting. 'This did not work, what evil' and if one day you find that person, perhaps a little weird, maybe you need to get drunk ... but at least you share something. Meet someone new, share experiences, is the best. so thank you "are his ambiguous statements.
Like Taylor Swift, Harry Styles recognizes been based on a break with 'someone special' ahead of their next album. However, the young heartthrob refuses to confirm if that 'someone' is Kendall Jenner, the girl he has been linked romantically after being seen together on several occasions, most recently late last year during the celebration 21 birthday model.
"She is a big part of the album. Sometimes you just want to pay a small tribute to that person, but others want to make it big and hope you realize that's just for her," he says.
