One Direction get reflective on moody Midnight Memories highlight “Right Now”. The Ryan Tedder-penned mid-tempo rock ballad addresses the struggle of being on the road and how important home and loved one are to their ongoing success and world domination.

“Late night spaces with all our friends, you and me, love these faces just like how it used to be,” the boys reminisce before realizing “we won’t be going home for long but I know I won’t be alone” over soaring guitars and synths. It does sound very One Republic but the biggest boy band in the world make it their own in the booming chorus. Listen to the track after the jump.
