1D fans, I have an important question?

What's happened with the band? I'm a fan too and it's really disappointing to see their singles flop on billboard and YouTube. Steal My Girl and Night Changes didn't even crack the top 10 in the billboard charts. Aside from that, Four hasn't done as well worldwide. It reached number 1 in less countries than mm and tmh and it also sold much less copies. I don't get it. This fandom can beat Beyonce in the AMAs, beat everyone else in MTV Stars, and slay every award show yet we can't even make the singles hits on the charts and have a lot of YouTube views? Look at this, 1D have nearly 15m subscribers on YouTube yet smg has less views than blank space and it was released earlier. Speaking of Taylor swift, she doesn't even have as much subscribers as 1D yet how come she can make her music success

ful. Ok. So what's wrong? Is it the fandom becoming smaller? To be honest this isn't the case as we slay award shows and we beat beyonce. The reason I think we're having tough times as a fandom is because of the boy band curse. Boy bands don't last long. Is this the end of the road for 1D? I hope not. As fans, what can we do to bring back the glory days in 2013 where everything slayed?And do you think the band should go down the Miley Cyrus route for the sake of attention? I think it's time the boys stopped trying to please the fandom with everything. They should make controversial videos if they want to and just keep in mind that we've got their backs no matter what.
