There is something I have to confess. In spite of being on the wrong side of middle-aged I have found, to my surprise, that I actually like the music of One Direction.
Why was I surprised by this? Well the age of their target audience can be surmised from the fact that along with the usual CDs, posters, T-shirts etc. that you would expect of any pop group, you can also buy colouring books and 'sticker dolly dressing' books featuring 1D. So I guess I am at least 40 years older than the average fan.
I guess you never know when you might find something new that you enjoy!

Hehehe!! So what will you call my granny who is in love with one direction!! Who usually puts her headphone on and dances in her room on the beat of 'best song ever' at the age of ninety-eight!!

That's really cool. See hobby and passion doesn't need any age. I have a neighbour who is aged 70years,he once saw us playing Angry Birds. Since then he started playing it.And for last few months he daily plays Angry Bird. It's just a passion and we can't really compare our passion with our age. We have only one beautiful life. So we should not compromise on it citing our age.

I don't understand all the hate that people have for one direction. They are quite a quirky group of, may I say, goodlooking and energetic lads and I find that their music is fun and peppy. While I don't love their music, I sure can shake a leg to their songs once in a while!!

@Curlybobby They are full of life, and their songs are not as shallow as you might expect!
