Yeah: after the initial media "shock" died down a bit, it's looking like it's not a split at all, but rather a planned hiatus so the band members can get on with solo projects...

Before you get too excited Pirate, they are more than likely to get back together again in the not too distant future, not unlike the woeful Take This ...and f*** orf.

 

One can only hope that No Direction find the single life much more preferable to being in a band.

Not to say that I am not displeased by the news, it will be nice not to have these sausage factory merchants bothering the radio-gramme for a while.

To be devil's advocate, although inferior to Blondie - obviously, it's a passable cover and a nice bit where they work in Undertones - Teenage Kicks lyrics.  They could have sat on stools and given the dull/X Factor acoustic boyband listen-to-my-vocal-range treatment.  I think you're being a bit uncharitable. 

 

There's been some atrocious covers over the years.  I quite like it - sort of.

I had a conversation about this with my niece the other day...

 

Niece - "One Direction are taking a break"  

Me - "So they're splitting up"?

Niece - "No, they're only taking a break" 

Me -  "that's what the Spice Girls said" 

Niece - "No, I definitely think they'll carry on"

Me - (remembering how upset I got when Kajagoogoo split up and my Dad was all irritatingly gloaty about it)  "Yeah, you're right"
