One Direction beats Justin Bieber’s video record; fans wait for new album


One Direction and Justin Bieber seem to have a healthy competition when it comes to music fans. The two popular entertainers are always being compared and are even known to be friends. The friendship might be strained a bit after the latest figures as One Direction apparently has beaten Justin Bieber with the 24-hour record of the most views of a video. On Wednesday Vevo released figures showing Live While We're Young broke serious records



“After counting the @VEVO numbers, happy to say @OneDirection broke Bieber's 24hr record w/ 8.24M views!! #1DVEVOrecord,” tweeted Vevo from the official Twitter account on Wednesday.

The number are staggering, even if it didn’t beat records. For fans to be watching a video 8,240,000 times in 24-hours is almost unbelievable. As the music times have changed, this type of audience wouldn’t have been possible 10 years ago or even five years ago. The Internet has allowed people to be involved with music immediately upon release and the industry can release the video around the world at the same time.

One Direction definitely is proving that the world is getting smaller and the fans of the band are absolutely everywhere! Which is why the music business is bracing for the release of the new album. Fans can barely wait to buy the music and can barely wait for the release of the next album which is less than three days away.
