One Direction, arguably the hottest boy bands in the world, is celebrating its anniversary today, July 23.
They are celebrating four years together as a band today, according to HollywoodLife.com. If you are a One Direction fan, you probably have all three albums and anticipate many more.
Has it really been three years, asks fans and band members? Fans have been taking this day to tweet back at Harry, Zayn, Louis, Niall and Liam, using the hastag #thankyou1D.
In 2010 Simon Cowell, the man that loves to hate, formed the boy band that has gained the hearts of many around the world.
So far the band has released four albums: Up All Night, Take Me Home and Midnight Memories.
To celebrate the fourth anniversary of One Direction, here is a Top Ten list of the most popular 1D songs since they began in 2010.
