‘Love Yourself’ – Justin Bieber

Before one direction won over the hearts of every boyband-lovin’ fan out there, our resident songwriting genius was already paving the way for the brit quintet’s impending global takeover – one song at a time, including ‘moments’, ‘over again’ and ‘18’. most memorable was ‘little things’, which Ed revealed that it contained some of his favourite lyrics ever. he admitted to penning the emotive ballad with his former flame when he was 17, but didn’t mind giving it to 1d in a bid to “try something different”. what a pal!
