Singer Bob Geldof has revealed he was blown away by the performance of One Direction on the new single.
The 'Steal My Girl' hitmakers - made up of Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan and Liam Payne - were among the impressive array of stars who performed for Band Aid 30 to raise money to help fight the Ebola crisis.
Bob, 63, revealed he was moved by their part in the much-anticipated tune, reported Daily Mirror.
"It's beautiful, seriously. That is the hardest one to do because people know the song so they are worried they're going to mess it up and they didn't at all. It was so sad what they did. I never expected that from them," Bob said.
"Harry Styles wanted to play it back so I did and it's very moving. They are whispering.
