Louis Tomlinson selects the songs that have influenced his career in his Tracks of My Years. Plus Ken has another round of the PopMaster music quiz.

Louis Tomlinson, the singer songwriter who shot to fame as a member of One Direction picks his Tracks of My Years with songs from The Fray and The Undertones. Louis has recently released his new single, We Made It, and announced a World Tour for 2020. Louis has said the track is inspired by stolen nights out in Manchester in the early days of One Direction. Louis said; “Any time off I had, I’d go to Manchester for nights out with my mates. It made me realise I didn’t live in the real world anymore and I missed it. I loved being normal, reckless and stupid. It was the best escape." His world tour in 2020 will visit London, Glasgow, Doncaster and Manchester, alongside Europe, UAE, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina, the USA and Canada. Louis recently headlined the Coca-Cola music festival in Madrid to an audience of 25,000 people. Earlier this year, Louis picked up the Best Song Award at the 2019 Teen Choice Awards for his recent single 'Two Of Us', which has so far hit 40 million streams on Spotify, with YouTube views at 23 million. In 2018 Louis won an iHeart Award for 'Best Solo Breakout', and an EMA Award for 'Best UK & Ireland Act' in 2017. As a member of One Direction, Louis has sold over 100 million records. Overall Louis’s solo music has garnered over a billion streams.
