Harry Styles’ New Album Will Give 1D-ers Life

If this album has taught me anything it’s that Harry really likes to go after women who are in other relationships.

After its long-awaited release, Harry Styles' self-titled solo album is out. It came out on Friday, May 12th and fans were more than ready to hear it, myself included. Harry's voice was always one of my favorite of One Direction, so I couldn't wait for a whole album of just him. Overall, I enjoyed his music a lot. His personal style is a lot different from One Direction's style and is more aligned with my own preferences of music. Below, I have broken down each song and given brief reviews of each song.

1. Sign of the Times

This political rock ballad gives a commentary on today’s society. It was released as a single a few weeks prior the album’s release and people have been heralding as reminiscent of David Bowie’s style of music.

2. Sweet Creature

What a sweet love ballad. The only instrument playing is an acoustic guitar being plucked in the background. I’m praying it’s Harry proving his skills on the guitar now that he knows how to play. This song is honest and simple and makes me feel emo.


3. Carolina

Okay, hit me with the bass Harry. This song is a little sexy and a lot funky. I want to be the girl in this song because apparently, she has Harry hook-line-and-sinker.

4. Meet Me in the Hallway

Out of all the songs on this album, this is the one you’d hear on an indie film soundtrack. It’d be playing softly in the background while the two main characters mack on each other for the first time.

5. Two Ghosts

This is sort of repetitive but the guitar solos peppered throughout to make up for the lyrics. However, “Two Ghosts” is definitely going to bring the mood down because this song is a little bit of a bummer.

6. Kiwi

Very ragey and angsty thanks to the heavy use of guitar and drums. I’m unsure as to where Kiwi comes from given context of the song, but I can still head bang to this when I’m feeling wronged by someone. To quote the song itself, “I’m kind of into it.”

7. Ever Since New York

This song is soooo obviously about his New York love Taylor Swift. I’m kidding. I actually have no idea who this song is about, nor do I really care. It is a bit boring though. I’m not going to lie.

8. Only Angel

Despite the title, the girl in this song is definitely not an angel. Harry is definitely breaking apart from his innocent boyband past in this song. He likes his girls to have questionable morals and be a little wild in the sack. Bye bye to the days where a girl flipping her hair made him overwhelmed.

9. Woman

By far his sexiest song yet. His voice, the piano, the la-la-la’s in the background. I’m so far up this song’s a** and I can’t see a way out.

10. From the Dining Table

This song is like a sad verson “Sweet Creature.” It’s only Harry crooning along to a single guitar. Once again we get a taste of Harry’s grown up lyrics and insight into the heartbreak he’s felt over the years.

If this album has taught me anything it’s that Harry really likes to go after women who are in other relationships. Harry, baby, listen to me. You don’t need a girl who won’t love you like you should be loved. I’m here for you. Come and get me.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
