I really love the voice of Niall Horan, it’s very smooth and lovely. The Show is a really good album, but I feel like all the songs sound the same, there’s no risk, no shift of perspective. There are beautiful love songs like “You Could Start a Cult” and Niall is at its lyrical peak with “Must Be Love” but I feel like he could go further. The instrumentals are very very beautiful and the production is flawless.
