Who does not know Harry Styles? He is one of ex member of
One Direction. He is the last member from one dirction who make his solo single
and album, but it does not matter. With untamable hair, a wide, cheeky grin and
70’s rock leanings he can still compete with the other members. His new track, a guitar-driven ballad called “Sign Of The
Times” received its first play on the BBC
Radio 1 Breakfast Show on Friday morning on April 7th 2017.
“It’s the song I’m most proud of writing, I think,” Styles
told Nick Grimshaw shortly after it premiered. The
label’s CEO Rob Stringer said “In marked contrast to One Direction’s production by committee, Styles has crafted a set that
recalls the regal high-water mark of ’70s British rock, Bowie and Queen in
particular. The lead single, which come out this month, sounds like it would be
a smash in any decade.” However, fans who searched for “Harry Styles” on
Spotify on Friday morning were initially unable to find the song. For a time,
it also failed to appear as it was supposed to on Spotify’s New Music Friday
playlist.
Spotify representative told Variety that this error
occurred because of “a technical issue for both Free and Premium”. The
representative added: “There should be no further issue, though users unable to
play this track need to re-install the Spotify application to remove the cache.
However, this hasn’t stopped Styles fans from worrying that the glitch has
“messed up” his single campaign.
“It’s likely he has missed out on hundreds of thousands of streams as a
result,” the source explains. “That could really affect his chart position come
Friday. He is Number One at the moment, but that’s only because his streaming
stats haven’t been included yet, and they have more weight.”
Unlike on spotify which has a trouble, this song effortlessly hit the first
place on iTunes chart in UK, US, Australia, Brazil, and Canada. In addition,
this song can ruin Harry Styles’s mate, who he adore the most, Ed Sheeran, shot
at Australian chart hisory. Ed Sheeran’s song, shape of you, can not match ABBA’s Fernando, the
longest-running No. 1 in Australian chart history after it sat at No. 1 for 14
weeks in 1976 because shape of you
juat stay on top for 13 weeks.
Sign Of The Times
takes nearly six minutes long. The
lyrics, title, and cover art indicate that Styles in apocalyptic territory, and
he seems to use the end of the world as the metaphor for the end of a
relationship. He sings the word “bullets” in a slightly creaky falsetto no less
than 16 times in the song’s first four minutes, before the soaring coda reveals
what he’s really talking about: “We don’t talk enough, we
should open up or Before it is all too much.”
When
you listen to “Sign of the Times” on
YouTube, the sidebar is filled with unbelievably histrionic reaction videos,
thumbnails of vloggers looking beatific
and upset,
pulling their own hair or looking slack-jawed and dumbfounded. “Sign of the Times” is clunky and
repetitive enough to worm its way into your brain, and probably onto the radio,
and its vague signaling at our current political turmoil might give it
extra stickiness.
After launching this
single, Styles has now shared dramatic photos of him posing topless
in a pool of pink-ish water, along with the following tracklisting:
- ‘Meet Me In The Hallway’
- ‘Sign Of The Times‘
- ‘Carolina’
- ‘Two Ghosts’
- ‘Sweet Creature’
- ‘Only Angel’
- ‘Kiwi’
- ‘Ever Since New York’
- ‘Woman’
- ‘From The Dining Table’
