A Band Break-(up?) from March 2016
On Aug 23, 2015, The Sun newspaper in the UK reported that the band would "take a break" from March 2016, after they finish promoting their fifth studio album Made in the A.M.. A source said, "The guys have been together for five years, which is an incredible run for any boy band. They fully deserve to have at least a year to work on their own projects. There is absolutely no bad blood between them and they are all 100% behind the decision. It is definitely not a split and they fully intend to get back together at some time in the future."
Take Me Home
One Direction Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So get off of my bag
My worries are piling up
And multiplying
Ain't got a lot on
My name and it disappears fast
Well I should spend less
I can't afford to change myself
For sleep almost every night
So I should plan my
Week accordingly so
I'll feel alright
I felt like going like
Nemo's for Monday
Tequila for Tuesday
We sleep thru the weekend
Zamora to Friday whenever
Hungover cause whenevers
Over so why don't you come over
Before we get older
No I can not afford rent or to
Call it I drive but I still got
Champagne to help me not remember
Sitting on a tall fence looking
Down at both sides well I think
I should just stay put and a have
A fucking dinner. It's like all I do
Just when I do when I need a friend
Who ses I can't have everything
I want and still eat my cake
I felt like going like
Nemo's for Monday
Tequila for Tuesday
We sleep thru the weekend
Zamora to Friday whenever
Hungover cause whenevers
Over so why don't you come over
Before we get older
Whenever hungover cause whenevers
Over so why don't you come over
Before we get older
The lyrics to One Direction's song Take Me Home reflect the struggles of a young person in their early 20s, who is trying to balance the pressures of adulthood with the desire for youthful fun without a care in the world. The song highlights the issue of anxiety, uncertainty and financial difficulties that young people face in today's society.
The first stanza of the song begins with the singer expressing their frustration as their worries pile up and become overwhelming, leading to a sense of anxiety. They feel like they have a lot on their plate and cannot handle the burden of constant pressure, leading to a feeling of being suffocated. The second stanza indicates their awareness of their financial difficulties, as they try to save money by spending less but find it hard to balance spending and saving. They are continuously faced with new challenges and are trying their best to cope with them.
The chorus, "I felt like going like Nemo's for Monday, Tequila for Tuesday, We sleep through the weekend, Zamora to Friday whenever, Hungover cause whenevers over so why don't you come over, Before we get older," portrays their desire to live their life to the fullest despite the struggles they are facing. They want to enjoy their youth while they still can and not let financial difficulties get in the way of living their best lives before they get older.
Overall, Take Me Home is a relatable song for many young people who are navigating the challenges of adult life, but still want to have fun and enjoy their youth.

Every generation had their iconic boy band.. I'm so happy that i lived my teenager life while these guys were together. Those songs still make me dance, cry and fell in love.
