One Direction chorus sounds suspiciously similar to Style by Taylor Swift. Probably same writers

The new One Direction song 'Perfect' sounds VERY similar to Taylor Swift 'Style'. Although it's nowhere near as good. Still alright though!

British press had reportedly cited the song 'could possibly be about Swift'.

The Daily Mail said some of the lyrics were a reference to Swift’s constant discussion over her past relationships in her songs.

Styles and Swift dated briefly in 2013.
