pov: its 2015, zayn just left 1d and this video came out. ur sitting in ur room listening to this and crying. zayn leaving 1d is the worst problem u have. life was good
Honestly started crying bc I found this and realised it’s been 6 years since it came out and like so long since he left 1d I cry errytime. He won’t even be there when they get back together and boo 😒
Backstory to this song. Zayn made this song and wanted it in One Direction's "Four" album, however Management refused to add it because it wasn't their "sound". This wasn't the first time it happened, it's been going on for 5 years. So he was tired, he went to a studio with his friend Naughtyboy, and they were playing around. Zayn sung the entire song. Naughtyboy knew how vulnerable Zayn was during 2015 especially with his mental health. When he had a breakdown and left One Direction, literally under a week later, Naughtyboy leaked this song without Zayn's knowledge. Zayn also made a few other songs such as the "My Type" remix, which was also leaked. naughtyboy took advantage of Zayn and rinsed him for his fame and money. There is more to this story, but it's quite sad what happened behind the scenes. Naughtyboy actually was the reason for Louis And Zayn fighting publicly on twitter too.
As a Ziam shipper and content creator about Ziam around 2015-2016, I used to think that this song was written for Liam (which I still think so). now it just makes me cry more and more after Liam's passing, knowing that he lost Liam forever without a chance to say goodbye… “I won’t mind, even though I know you’ll never be mine…”
I remember exactly where I was when my friend and I heard this song was leaked, we were such big fans of One Direction. That was over 6 and a half years ago. I’ve lived in two different places since then all over the country, made some of my closest friends, changed so much, and yet I can remember who I was back then when I listen to this. 6 years feels like a lifetime.
Can you people please stop getting pissed at the guy for leaving One Direction! This is his choice, he was not happy at that point and moved on. You people need to move on also and stop obsessing with his career. He is doing what makes him happy, if you guys were true fans you would support him no matter what he does.
It's so sad when this song got rejected when he still in 1D, and i heard when he say " i didn't want to be in the band " and then he say " i realised it's wasn't for me cause i can't put any input in " , i think it's clear he really want to make an RnB song but always got rejected by management, so i think this is the reason why he leaving the band
Lyrics [Verse 1] Don't look around 'cause love is blind And darlin', right now I can't see you I’m feelin' proud so without a doubt I can feel you [Chorus] 'Cause we are who we are when no one’s watchin' And right from the start, you know I got you Yeah, you know I got you I won’t mind Even though I know you’ll never be mine I won’t mind Even though I know you’ll never be mine [Verse 2] We messed around until we found the one thing we said we could never ever live without I’m not allowed to talk about it But I gotta tell you [Chorus] 'Cause we are who we are when no one’s watchin' And right from the start, you know I got you Yeah, you know I got you I won’t mind Even though I know you’ll never be mine I won’t mind Even though I know you’ll never be mine
I think nothing has a power like what nostalgia has... I still clearly remember those days.. this was leaked and me and my friends were on a bus and trying to understand every second of this song.. time flies, people come and go and it always makes me wonder how you can feel the hurt in your chest... This song just brings back everything that i have forgotten for a while... Hope everyone is fine and safe.. take care of yourself ♥️🫂🍀
I'm actually so glad that he went his own direction. (No pun intended). His voice was so hidden and Harry always got most of the solos. I love his music more than one direction's tbh. And I'm a big fan
I had this on my playlist in 2015. Life was changing quickly back then and this song was always with me. Two days ago, he released What I am. And, I reminisced about this song. Both the songs bring me comfort and also tell me how much life has changed. Back then, it was more about finding myself. Now, I know what I am. Thank you, Zayn for being there.
just found this a couple days ago and bawled my eyes put listening to it, zayn was done so dirty damn. i’m a harry girl but i have such a soft spot for zayn 😩
I wish he again releases this song with good sound quality. I like all the weird-but-sounds-great music that he creates, Zayn if you are reading this anytime, please release this song again, And by the way congratulations on becoming father,We are always proud of your works.
I remember being here 5 years ago, listening to this absolute banger of a song and reading the comments here. Seeing the same comments again makes me feel like I traveled back in time lol.
Where have the years gone and the years to come I remember listening to this 9 years ago in a time of despair & on the brink of ending it. And found Allah was always with me “we are who we are when no one’s watching” that Allah is always watching who we truly are when we are alone.
Zayn wrote this song as a demo for the album FOUR. And, he wrote 41 songs for that album alone. And guess how many went to use? 0. None. Modest didn’t use a single song he wrote for that album because they were too “real and vulnerable” or they just didn’t meet the band’s reputation and image. Like, I don’t blame him for leaving. Imagine how ignored he felt.
i honestly dont see why people are still hating like seriously if you dont like him ok leave him alone and worry about the people you do like its simple
I miss 2015 but prefer never coming back there because of Zayn leaving band, his bad mental health, 1d on hiatus, so many moments that made me cry back then. I really miss 2012-2014.
This song came back to my head after Liam passing, idk why but its in repeat since
now seeing the ziam picture on zayns profile is devestating
Same
☹️
@@sajra1958 where?
i stand by the fact that this song is one of his best
Kelsey Lewis YES
U RIGHT
Thought it was a cover
no i agree
Same
Here after Liam’s passing. This song just makes me remember simpler times.
I forgot about this song and haven’t listened to it in a few years. Need a studio version of this, it’s so good 🥹
gosh me too!!! i suddenly remembered while writing an essay so i just had to come back here ☹
9 years ago is nuts
lord this takes me back to the ZIAM era 😭🥺
pov: its 2015, zayn just left 1d and this video came out. ur sitting in ur room listening to this and crying. zayn leaving 1d is the worst problem u have. life was good
he left for the better though. Im glad he left and focused on his health instead.
@@anonymous-vg9ou i know, its just something that most of us didn’t get back then
ONG!!!
Shitty couple of days

damn..how did you knowwhat that?
@@bones294 Just look at the timeline of what happened during early 2015 to Zayn. It was everywhere back then
Hey
@@user-gj5yy6rk2q can you give the link of that story please please
@@annupurnarathore6263 just type "i won't mind four" on google u should find some stories. but the main one is in Zayn's book
With the release of Room Under The Stairs, it feels like Zayn has returned to the gentle, acoustic sound he intended to start out with.
🎉☝🏽👏🏽 he had to wait 6 to 8 years, waiting patiently to be released from RCA Sony.
Who’s listening in 2020🙌🏽❤️
MEEEEEE
i was gonna say me then i remembered its 2021

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Don't look around 'cause love is blind
And darlin', right now I can't see you
I’m feelin' proud so without a doubt
I can feel you
[Chorus]
'Cause we are who we are when no one’s watchin'
And right from the start, you know I got you
Yeah, you know I got you
I won’t mind
Even though I know you’ll never be mine
I won’t mind
Even though I know you’ll never be mine
[Verse 2]
We messed around until we found the one thing we said we could never ever live without
I’m not allowed to talk about it
But I gotta tell you
[Chorus]
'Cause we are who we are when no one’s watchin'
And right from the start, you know I got you
Yeah, you know I got you
I won’t mind
Even though I know you’ll never be mine
I won’t mind
Even though I know you’ll never be mine
Rest in Peace Liam 🤍 these boys will mean the world to me for the rest of my life.

still my favourite, his voice says it all
such an incredibly calming and sentimental song
I'm actually so glad that he went his own direction. (No pun intended). His voice was so hidden and Harry always got most of the solos. I love his music more than one direction's tbh. And I'm a big fan
he's released like one song 🤔
+Alejandra Garcia he's released multiple covers as well.
hear his song called pillow talk!!! it's awesome don't pay attention to the video
yeah .. he is better in his solo ❤
Jennifer Baker years have passed,and I hope the same thing don’t happens with Little Mix
2020 and I’m here crying...I can’t believe he is about to be a father🥺♥️
he's a father now 🥺
May this song never disappear ♾️
6 months later and I still cry every time I hear it
It's been so long already??
me too.. but I love him and the song... his voice is amazing...
Marissa Vancise 2 years and im still crying😢

it's one of his best songs, seriously
HE SHOULD HAVE MADE THIS HIS SINGLE I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH ZAYN MAKE IT HAPPEN
This couldn't be his single bc it's a cover.
+Maryam Khan cover to what
It's not his song.
@@maryamkhan5065 It's not a cover. He wrote this and it was never intended to be put out there. It was leaked by Naughty Boy.
When you recorded this you did not know naughty boy was an idiot now you do...WE LOVE YOU ZAYN ❤️
i can’t believe this song is almost 10 years old. we all grew up 🥹
I've always loved this song. His vocals are so soft and sweet here
WHY IS THIS NOT ON SPOTIFY
This song bring me back to 2015 and crazy moments in my life, so nostalgic
can’t believe its not on spotify
I miss Zayn so much. i cry everytime i hear this song. but im glad hes happy now with what he wants to do. i cant wait to hear his album. ❤️
still one of his best songs
You can hear how much he was in love with that person who is this song about...
don’t know why just remembered this song and it’s sad that didn’t had the recognition deserved
This hits differently now
still waiting for a studio version of this song
This brings me to tears everytime🥲💔💔 😢
Where have the years gone and the years to come
I remember listening to this 9 years ago in a time of despair & on the brink of ending it. And found Allah was always with me “we are who we are when no one’s watching” that Allah is always watching who we truly are when we are alone.
His voice is the only reason why 1D attracted my attention..
Do what you love. Stay awesome.. :)
I can't believe it's been 3 years since this was released
my heart still hurts when I listen to it
i forgot this existed
BRO IKR IT TOOK ME FOREVER TO FIND THIS SONG
This song alone deserves Grammy award.
Here during the week of March 25th 2024.
This song is a masterpiece, really wish zayn hear us and drop this song ASAP ..BTW fuck naughtyboy ..2022❤️
One of his best songs and it’s not officially released 😩
Just here in 2023 for the 10th time to say make this a single cause it means to much to me please 😭😭😭😭😭
Most underrated song, He's voice is just magical 🦋
Me había olvidado de esta canción😭me da nostalgia
his best song
Till this day I keep wondering who broke Zayn’s heart to record this masterpiece
2024 and im listening to this masterpiece 💗

THANK GOD , THAT HE LEFT 1D ! I STAND BY HIS SIDE ALWAYS AND ZAYN IS MY FAVORITE
Voltei aqui, pra lembrar do dia que ele saiu do 1D e soltou essa pedrada. Acordei com ela lançada, triste que ele saiu.. Mas a música é linda
I'm happy for Zayn.He's amazing.Think about it in 1D he had to share the lyrics but with him being solo,we get to hear how good he is.
+Hana Arif I think he's good and if you don't have anything nice to say then keep your thoughts to yourself
its 2023 and I still need a studio version of this song...
till this day, i fkn love this song😍
I love you zayn!!!
I still think about Zayn everyday, if your reading this I hope u are feeling ok
