1D's new song is a major hit
Updated | By tanstan fourie

One Direction's new song Drag Me Down has hit number one in 82 countries on its first day after the surprise launch of the single.
Although the band is one man down, it looks like Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan should be prepared for their biggest global success to date with the comeback hit.
This news came on the same day former member Zayn Malik took a swipe at the boy band saying he signed a new solo deal to make "real music".
The band took to Twitter to share their excitement after dropping their new song:
