- After One Direction members parted ways in 2015, Niall Horan knew his career was far from over. Two solo studio albums later, his third, ’The Show’, is the strongest statement he has made as an artist yet.
Niall sits down with Zane Lowe to acknowledge that the global pause the pandemic caused was the first time he was able to have time off since being a teenager. This time of solitude gave Niall the time and space to reflect on his career and steer it to the next chapter.
’The Show’ is a metaphor for the craziness of his career, with songs like “Never Grow Up” and “If You Ever Leave Me” dealing with the struggles of being an adult in today's world. Niall also comments on the ongoing rumors of a One Direction reunion, what the legacy of the band means to him, and his plans to tour.

Thanks for having Niall on here Zane!
Our unproblematic king. Love this man and who he has become. What the 1D boys went through during those intense 5 years is absolutely mind-blowing and the fact that they didn't even register it themselves is stunning.
He was so nervous playing with his hands and picking his nails just want to hold his hand and be like it’s okay
My life would be sadder without your music Niall. Especially this last year when things have been hard for me, I've played your music over and over. So excited for Friday. 🎉
This is my favorite Niall interview so far aside from that one with Tom Power. Niall is charming, personable, and always going for the lighter side of things, you can see a little bit of discomfort when Zane wants to see vulnerability. (Also maybe it’s about that “media training” 🙄). But as the interview went on, we got to see Niall’s worldview a lot more.
I agree. Much more in depth. Human.
42:02 For those wanting to hear reunion and/or 1D talk and are hoping and/or losing hope…
I found this to be a very positive outlook while still not having an answer yet. I had been getting worried that he was getting so tired of the questions that he might not even want to ever reunite.
Thank you! I would watch the whole thing but I don’t have the time so thank you for this!
I don't believe in a near reunion anymore. What we might get is reunion for a tv show, where they watch and comment old performances, where they are joking around and tell some anecdotes. Maybe jamming a little.
But a full reunion in the meaning of recording a new album and going on tour for several months... no I don't think this will happen soon.
Niall has the kind of camera-shy personality of an amazing talent... I just started listening to him seriously a few months ago and I'm already in love with his sound and musical persona
Clever trick with the guitar to try open him up and relieve the nerves. Lovely interview.
i love how zane is so gentle with everyone he interviews!! i love this, thankyou for having niall 🫶🏻
My favorite thing to do is watch a Zane Lowe interview before the album is released, then we rewatch it after listening to the album a few times. I’m so excited for The Show. Appreciate the both of you so much ❤️
This young man and his former band mates literally helped me get through the pandemic. Their lives , and little shows , the collaborations were all incredible. That’s how I became such a fan . I wish them massive success personally and professionally
im seeing niall everywhere now and i really like it
THIS is the kind of interview i was missing from niall. we don't only want to hear about his music, but also his THOUGHTS behind it.
i love to know where an artist was at in their life when they were writing, what they were going through etc. im not asking for at detailed story of every experience they went through that made this album turn out the way it did, but it makes them so much more human when you go in depth with feelings and thoughts, without getting too personal. not just the surface level stuff we hear in most interviews.
Amazing interview. This is the kind of interview I want to listen to. Im so sick of the surface questions that get asked every time. I want to know thoughts, feelings, emotions and experiences an artist is going through when writing. Growing up on 70's and 80's rock Niall's sound just takes me back to childhood. I can't wait for the album. Ive already ordered and bought tickets for the tour.
Same. I love who he has become and the fact he is not afraid to talk about wanting therapy and digging into his emotions I love. I can't wait for the tour next year. The date I have tickets too is only a year and 2 weeks away!
The Show is such a great album! Niall doesn’t make any bad music! I hope this album gets the recognition it deserves! ❤
Niall Horan’s solo stuff is really good
Niall we’re so proud of you 🫶🇮🇪
Niall is very clever and I love his sense of humor ❤❤❤
That was such a good interview. Even though Niall was uncomfortable at some parts he was still very genuine and even in his quiet moments he shines. I love him and The Show is amazing, I've been listening to it non stop.
I really love listening to him talking, his voice is just so warm and listening to his insights and thoughts is just wonderful
I agree his voice is so warm and the accent is so soft and comforting 😊
My 8 yr old son really wants to see Niall in Toronto. He adores your music and plays his guitar to it every morning before school even though he doesn't know how to play.
As an artist, I can see how releasing music during the pandemic must've been so frustrating. But as a fan, I am so grateful to have received that second album during such a dark time in the world. 'Heartbreak Weather' will always remind me of driving around in my car, with no destination, just listening and waiting... waiting for the world to go back to normal, not really understanding what the new normal would even look like, or when that would be. That album is a friend to me; a small token of comfort within so many unknowns. Thank you Niall.
This is why and I’ve said this many times before but this is why I just fucking love the way that Zane Lowe has interviews artists. He gets n a deeper level without getting too personal (he respects that space) with Zane you get the real shit and no BS. We learn more about an artist through him than any other interview.
Agree! Personally I love to watch interviews but also I easily get frustrated bc of the host. I love the way Zane reaches the core without losing respect
Oh gosh I love Niall so much, and the fact that they started this interview playing The Show and You Could Start A Cult... I love that. Such important songs, such an important artist in my life, I'll protect and support him with everything I've got.
Niall is always an amazing guest😍
I love listening to just how an artist makes their music. I don’t want to hear about the drama and whatever else. I’ve said it so many times but I always just want to pick my idols brains on their music. How they come up with the lyrics. Or where do you find the inspiration. I love this! This is the type of interviewing that needs to be happening😌💜
I❤ the way he smile
So wonderful to hear, can’t wait to hear the new album Niall ❤
Niall 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I never realized until Zane had him on his plate, that Niall avoids the depths of the uncomfortable.
And its beautiful that Niall seems a bit anxious or unrelaxed and Zane pulls out that guitar and settles the tension from him. You can actually feel Niall's breath change. That was very kind.
I love listening to Niall talk music, chords, lyrics. We are so lucky to have him.
Niall got kinda defensive over that 1D part, whether he'll sing the songs at his concert. Love that!
Niall❤❤❤
As a journalist I have taken so much inspiration from Zane and how he balances connecting with his interviewees and allowing them the space to speak.
Beautiful conversation! It's wonderful to see how Niall has grown as a performer and an individual. I appreciate how candid and open he has always been in interviews.
I think Zane did most of the talking in this interview and Niall seemed like the host, just nodding while he blabbed. 🥺
I don't think he wanted to be here...
I think 🤔 😅you’re right, yeah Zane did seem to be the one who had more to say or more of what Zane himself wanted to say for himself. But still he did keep a interview conversation style going.
He was SO nervous. He generally isn't at least never to such a degree. I wonder why that is... But I could see that Zane was trying to ease Niall's nerves by playing the guitar and encouraging him.
I have been waiting for Zane to interview Niall!
Great interview! Live Niall and his music. Can't wait for the album) one more day!
He's so lovely. Unrelated: petition for Niall to do a Calm story.
Yes, his voice is dreamy... send one off to dreamland......😊
niall is such a cutie ❤️
Blue looks great on him.
Niall is so good ❤❤ 10 songs aren't enough for me 😭 make it a double
Thanks to Niall’s music has changed my life and the lyrics of the album THE SHOW that I listen always is great therapy for me ❤ you Niall
Two more days to wait to hear "The Show"! I already know that it is going to surpass all expectations. Enjoyed the interview immensely. Relax Niall, you got this! The hard work is done and now is the time to reap. Take it all in, every blissful moment of touring. I hope I get to be a part of one of those moments!! ❣️
Love this interview! Love Niall
That was just a brilliant way to spend my night ❤

Incredible listen, great interview guys. Thankyou
Just dropped almost 300 quid for two tickets to see him live NEXT year. So yeah I’m effing excited!!!
Nial and Louis are my favs because tbh they are the two most unproblematic and yes I love them all but I’ve always have had a soft spot for them and Zane Lowe’s a remarkable human being and great guitar player too
