Speaking about Tomlinson’ debut solo single Back to you, Cowell told billboard.com: “Louis and I, you know, we’ve got this very close bond. When we heard about this current record, I remember calling him and going, ‘Louis, this record is special’ – and I could not be happier.

“Actually, with all the boys, if I’m being honest with you. They’ve worked for this. But yeah, you do feel a little bit like a proud dad when you see all five of them doing well now.”
