Same as The Corrs?
It should be noted that the first few notes is very similar to The Corrs song Summer Sunshine.112.210.120.18 (talk) 05:13, 3 April 2012 (UTC)

 * One Thing (One Direction song) → One Thing

These figures speak for themselves. Unreal7 (talk) 22:54, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose – For several reasons: 1) The popularity of songs seems like a highly volatile phenomenon in general, and we don't want to just blow in the wind with WP:RECENTISM; 2) The dab page also includes "1 Thing" as well, which has a substantial number of page views (more than "One Thing (Finger Eleven song)" in particular); 3) The phrase "One Thing" seems highly likely to be used in many different ways in the future; 4) The dab page has only existed for two months, so it is likely to grow further over time (e.g. it could already reasonably include "One Thing (Gravity Kills song)", "The One Thing (song)", and "The One Thing (album)", and perhaps "One True Thing" (the film), "One Great Thing", "One Last Thing...", "One Good Thing", "One True Thing (band)", etc.); 5) the "One Thing (One Direction song)" song was only released last year, so it is quite likely that this One Direction boy band and the popularity of its songs will fade away relatively quickly. It seems like leaving the dab page as it is would give us One Less Thing to Worry About in the long run. –BarrelProof (talk) 00:44, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure any intelligent person will be able to tell the difference between "1 Thing" and "One Thing". As for the other song/film, that's a load of BS. No one's going to mix up the 1D song with whatever else - this is the most well-known today. It's been #1, or top 10 at least, all over the world. The fact that it's recent doesn't really make any difference. And it was released this year by the way, not last year. See also Is This Love and Something to prove my point that the most famous/popular song is WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Unreal7 (talk) 23:37, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose WP:RECENTISM . 70.49.127.65 (talk) 05:02, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose as per WP:RECENTISM and the fact that there are multiple other songs with the same title. This in my opinion would be just confusing to readers. Till 12:23, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

Same as "Shut Up" and "Turn Back the Clock"?
It reminds me noted that the chorus is very similar to Simple Plan's "Shut Up!" and Johnny Hates Jazz's "Turn Back the Clock".

Like this:
 * "...get out, get out..." (the line was the same as Simple Plan's) / "I don't, I don't" = "Shut up, shut up..." / "Get out, get out..." / "Step up, step up..."
 * "...out of my head" / "...know what it is" = "...turn back the clock" / "Back to the days..." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 183.171.161.42 (talk) 17:54, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

@Composition
"According to the digital sheet music published at Musicnotes.com by Sony/ATV Music Publishing, One Direction's vocal range in the span from the note of B3 to D5". What the heck is this supposed to be? It is not even a sentence as it's lacking a verb. Also, when listening to the song on Youtube, you'll notice that it does not only reach down to the B3 (which would be a bit ridicolous by the way, even a violin reaches the G3). The deepest sung note is acually a D2. It would be so very nice if anyone could correct this. The current sentence does not make any sense at all.
