"History"
Song

"History" is a song by English-Irish boy band One Direction. It was released on 6 November 2015 as the third and final single from their fifth and final studio album, Made in the A.M. (2015), as well as the band's final single before their hiatus in January 2016. "History" peaked at number six on the UK Singles Chart.[1]

Composition

“This is not the end. This is not the end. We can make it, you know it. You know!”

"History" was written by members Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson, along with Wayne Hector, Ed Drewett and the band's regular collaborators Julian Bunetta and John Ryan. It is a jaunty acoustic singalong that closes the album's standard edition[2] and was composed in G-flat major with a tempo of 88 beats per minute and a time signature of 12
8.[3]

Release

The song was chosen as the third single from Made in the A.M. after the commercial success that followed the band’s performance on the finale of The X Factor UK. The song was released by Syco Music on 6 November 2015 and served as the band's last single before their hiatus.[4][5]

Music video

The music video was published on the band's Vevo channel on YouTube on 26 January 2016.[6] The video features clips of the band throughout the years, highlighting their tours and personal anecdotes (including clips with former member Zayn Malik). The video ends as the band walk off in separate directions. It was later confirmed that the band were originally supposed to run back together at the end of the music video. Ben Winston, who directed the video, also added "The ending wasn't supposed to look like they're just walking off in different directions, it was kind of like a 'see you in a bit, guys.'"[7] In 2017, the deleted clip was unveiled online.[8]
