only harry could show the predatory nature of the music industry and how he's literally a piece of meat, a dance monkey, who if he ever stops singing, stops being the brand that he's advertised as, will be torn apart and brought down to literal shreds and stop being relevent, only harry could show all this by portraying himself as this octopus/siren/human hybrid and pull it off

Bigger Than Me

“I felt the song with Steve was appropriate for that moment, it was a bit of me doing what I thought everyone would be thinking I should do. It was the easy way. There were a lot of pop-dance songs back then, and it seemed like the easiest way to break into the industry. And with Bebe Rexha it was similar, the same idea. And it’s not that I regret doing either of them, in fact I’m very proud of them, and I think I had to go through those experiences to do what I do today, but I do think I chose them for the wrong reasons.”

“I think I’m in a different situation. When you do this trending thing, it’s because you want to be as big as you can be, and I understand that reasoning, because that’s what I hoped to experience with One Direction; but I realised, especially when I started my solo career, I realized that I had already experienced success and it didn’t fill me up. I wanted to test myself and see if I could make it on my own, see what it is that I love.”

“I’ll tell you the truth: I was afraid that video would come out, I was dreading it. I was the last to leave, but I didn’t expect to feel the way I felt when I first saw the performance. You know, how I would feel if I walked on that stage today is a far cry from how I felt that day. I’m so proud now, because I’ve come a long way since then, I barely recognize that guy now. When I auditioned for X Factor, I didn’t expect anything beyond a professional appraisal.”

“It struck me singing Matilda - that maybe it hits a little different when I’m wearing a rainbow tracksuit. I feel like it takes on a whole new life, you know what I mean?” - 26/08

“I don’t know if I can read that out? [laughing, raises the sign, which says ‘I sold feet pics to be here’] Ooooookay! By whatever means necessary! [laughing] I’m not going to ask any further questions! It’s a dangerous road those feet pics.”
