The band covered Justin Bieber’s smash hit ‘Sorry’ during an appearance on BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge.

 

 

Lead singer Matt Healy sparked some outrage from One Direction fans recently when he talked about being brought in to write a song for the band, saying,  “They didn’t seem to be actually that interested; they just wanted to play me this song that they said was really, really inspired by us”.

Healy went on to say that the song, ‘Change Your Ticket’ sounded a lot like the 1975’s ‘Girls’,  “Listen guys, fill your boots, the song doesn’t sound that much like ‘Girls,” he told the band. “But the guitar and the whole vibe of it is a complete lift. So take the guitars off, and we’re good.”

The 1975 will release their second album ‘I Like It When You Sleep For You Are So Beautiful Yet So Unaware Of It’ on February 26th.
