-They say his vocals take center stage and that the result is grand and memorable. They say it reminds them of Bowie of Hunky Dory. John Misty loved it too.
-They also point out it reminds them of glam rock ballads of days past.
-Critics are eating this up.

stans will eat up anything he drops....same people who find him attractive. it's all questionable.
can all his posts be sponsored by Lenscrafters moving forward tbh?
His stans can't be this delusional. This song makes Niall's sound like a dance track tbh.
“Sign of the Times” reminds me of the fist-pumping endings to songs like “Hey Jude” or “All the Young Dudes,” where the band locks into three or four chords and plays them for a minute or three, slowly advancing and retreating, a scorching guitar lead here, a new vocal harmony there, until reaching hard-earned catharsis. The difference is that those classic codas have actual songs attached to them. “Sign of the Times” has only those three chords, and it goes straight for cruising altitude with an onslaught of cymbals and guitar on the first chorus, expecting you to be moved without pausing to consider why.
Even if it’s not a good song, “world-weary stadium rock balladeer” is a legitimately intriguing path for Styles to take in his post-One Direction career. Let’s just wait a little longer before we make any more Bowie comparisons.

You are not missing out.

like, I hope he continues with this quality
unlike a CERTAIN OTHER MEMBER OF HIS BAND WHO HAD AN ABSOLUTE FIRE FIRST SINGLE AND THEN NOTHING ELSE OF VALUEZatan's entire album is better than this. Don't let stanning of mediocre yt men deafen you to the truth.

*plays What a Feeling instead of this trash single*
Wrong, Right Now, Intermission:Flower, Girl Almighty, Borderz, TIO, Stockholm Syndrome, Perfect, and Live While We're Young beg to differ.
I can't with people listening to the Top 40 and then saying the music industry is dead. That's not true at all.
