Harry Styles
I'm a woman who might have a little crush on Harry Styles! Well, maybe I would just a little if I were younger and weren't married. :) Maybe it's just a mom crush? I love his voice (singing but also his talking voice). I like how he dances around on stage with his head up, eyes closed, lips pursed (or bitten), arms waving, in what appears to be utmost happiness. My 24-year-old son, Connor, dances like that. Does he copy Harry? It is so identical. I tell my son, Connor, he looks a bit like Harry Styles and he feels blessed. What a compliment, he says back. But of course Harry Styles is not my son ... :) Here's Harry dancing (Connor are you copying?!!!)
I did read recently one comment at the bottom of one of his Youtube videos. A 61-year-old woman wrote that she had a crush on Harry Styles (and was feeling really weird about it), and I guess I could relate. He's incredibly talented, besides singing he's in the movies. A writer at Roger Ebert reviewed his My Policeman movie and was reasonably impressed by his performance as originally a non-actor, but talked about his monotone voice. In my opinion, it's not monotone, it's beautiful. His voice sounds Birmingham/Northern England. My 27-year-old son loved his movie, Don't Worry Darling. I liked it too. His infamous Olivia Wilde relationship made me sad when it ended. And of course there was the end of the relationship with Taylor Swift. But, heh, we still have her song(s) about him (she's the singer in the dancing video above).
It was cute the way Harry described to Simon Cowell when he was just 16, the bakery (ba-ker-ry) where he'd been employed, where he "served" cakes. He described a little round loaf with a cross on top. He liked donuts, "Donuts are good." His voice (and his personality) seems to be his greatest appeal. Watermelon Sugar (High!). His description of his town as being quite "picturesque" in his British accent, loved that also.
Sometimes I miss the t-shirts and jeans he used to wear with One Direction, not to mention the mop of tossled hair and less polish. But still there is that big great voice.
One Direction:
Other great songs: Fine Line. Mathilda. I'll play a few for you below.
Happy 4th of July Americans!!! Enjoy some watermelon with your fireworks! Here are some of my favorite Harry Style songs:
I hope he doesn't mind me posting his music.
This is my favorite song and video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3cffdsEXXw love the white tailored but roomy shirt while he runs and sings!!!!!
And finally, this song is very depressing, but great:
"Coffee's out at the Beachwood Cafe! I'm falling again, but what if I'm down and I'm out?"
How does any of this relate to my novel, Unrest? Well it really doesn't, however, I used to live in England, near Oxford, at RAF Upper Heyford. Annie's father in the book was stationed there after being evacuated from Iran, after the revolution. And I have a son that dances like Harry Styles!!
