Union J say they're still waiting for a 'massive hit'

  • January 2, 2014

union j - carry youUnion J say they've got big plans for 2014 so watch out everyone.

In a Daily Star article appar­ently written by them (but almost def­in­itely not), the band explain they're still waiting for a break­through hit to help them reach One Direction levels of success.

"Every song on our­ album is good," they write, "but we want that massive hit that cuts over from very good to amazing, just like The Wanted did with 'Glad You Came'."

Right.

"We want to get some new producers to work with, get a new sound and find that lane we want to go down," the band continued.

"With mer­chand­ise on our tour doing ridicu­lously well, we want our ­music to be as good as that."

'Merchandise first, songs later'. 2014 ladies and gentlemen.
