Louis Tomlinson Admits He Feels Pressure To Be As Successful as One Direction Was

Louis Tomlinson is about to drop his next new single, which he revealed was the closest to his heart — however, that doesn’t mean he still doesn’t feel some pressure.

Speaking to BBC Radio 2, the “Miss You” musician revealed that there is a certain amount of pressure on him as he kicks off his solo career, after coming from a mega successful band.

“I think it’s more pressure. We set a bar with 1D and there’s a certain expectation but I think that’s what drives all of us and it helps having that pressure there,” he shared.

Louis also shared that it’s really different for him being on his own: “There’s certain moments where it does help to share the load, like with interviews, even if it’s excitement, you definitely notice in those moments and on the road I’m sure it helps.

“From a writing perspective it’s easier to go ‘right this is who I am’ as opposed to ‘this is who we are’ and fit four or five different references and tastes.”
