On this day in 2017, Harry Styles stepped into his solo career with his debut single 'Sign of the Times.'⁣ ⁣ Written shortly after the end of One Direction’s hiatus, Harry described the song as being inspired by a mother’s final words to her child, giving it that emotional, almost apocalyptic tone. He worked closely with producer Jeff Bhasker, recording much of the track live with a full band to capture its raw, classic rock feel.⁣ ⁣ The music video, directed by Yoann Lemoine, saw Harry literally soaring above the Scottish Highlands, filmed on the Isle of Skye. He was suspended from a helicopter in a harness for hours, performing mid-air to create that weightless, dreamlike effect.⁣ ⁣ The song debuted at No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart and cracked the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100.⁣ ⁣ #HarryStyles #OnThisDay #SignsOfTheTimes
