"Steal My Girl" is a song by English-Irish boy band One Direction. It is the lead single from their upcoming fourth studio album Four (2014). It was released worldwide on 29 September 2014. The single was written by Wayne Hector, John Ryan, Julian Bunetta, Ed Drewett (the four had previously written "Best Song Ever"), and band members Louis Tomlinson and Liam Payne. It was produced by Bunetta, Pär Westerlund, and Ryan.
The announcement was first made on band member Liam Payne's Twitter on 14 September. The single became available worldwide on 29 September, except in the United Kingdom. The song will be made available in the United Kingdom on 12 October, with Payne's remix of the recording (dubbed as the Big Payno & Afterhrs Pool Party Remix) being the B-side. The song's co-writer Louis Tomlinson stated the song is a "feel good song and it’s not too far away from the last album (Midnight Memories)." On 28 September, one day prior to the official release, the song was leaked on the internet.
"Steal My Girl" topped the singles chart on the United States iTunes on the day of release. It also reached number 1 on the Billboard Twitter Top Tracks.
One Direction member Niall Horan hoped that the single would peak number 1 in the United Kingdom following its release, but it was ultimately ranked #3. Despite this, "Steal My Girl" is the eighth song from the group to have peaked top 3 in the UK Singles Chart.
7 of the atunes chart dominate One Direction. This was the first time that One Direction enter this single music 'Steal My Girl' in atunes Summit. As far of chart goes for almost 5 years past. We would like to congratulate 1D that they've made it together with their fans.
