Louis Tomlinson, a member of One Direction, has revealed his favorite song by the band, "Story of My Life," which he felt marked a "turning point" for the band's evolution from "bubblegum pop" to more mature songwriting. The song was released in October 2013 as the second single from One Direction's third album, Midnight Memories. Despite its chart-topping success, the band ended its indefinite hiatus in 2016. Despite this, Tomlonian has released his third solo album and is set to begin a world tour later this month.
