One Direction Break Record With New Single

One Direction have already broken records with their new music and their album Four hasn’t even been released yet! The band has hit the number one spot on iTunes in 67 countries with their new album, two months before its official release. On top of that, the band’s single Fireproof which was put up as a free download, has now broken records, becoming the most downloaded free track in history. It was downloaded a whopping 1,089,287 times in the 24-hour window that it was available.

The reaction to 'fireproof' has been unbelievable , really makes us excited for you to hear the rest of FOUR! Thank you xx — Niall Horan (@NiallOfficial) September 10, 2014

  After the band’s announcement earlier this week that their new music was available for pre-order, the album zoomed straight to the number one spot in nearly 70 countries including the USA, the UK, Spain and India. The new album has also been the subject of more than 1.7 million tweets. The news comes just days after it was announced that the band had entered this year's Guinness Book of Records for being the ‘First Act to Debut at No. 1 with first three albums’ . This came as a result of the success of Midnight Memories, Up All Night and Take Me Home.  Four will not be released until November 17th. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAwiIZtSfNM Video via Youtube/Niall Horan
