Thank You, Liam Payne - Happy New Year's to All 2017





With one Instagram post, solo singing artist as well as One Direction band member Liam Payne injected a strong dose of hope and delight into the arms of many, many fans who have been struggling as they've watched the lingering stronghold maneuvers of Sony/Syco.  Certainly, Louis Tomlinson has endured the worst of the career sabotage.  The other men have had more liberties, but all of them have been through an incredibly tough time.  They've shared it all and Liam reflected this when he tagged all 4 band members:




Thank you, Liam.  Thank you for stepping up in this moment - just like that night at the Brit Awards in February, the reverberations from that thrown gavel are felt throughout the entire fandom.

Let's wind it back around to Liam Payne once more for his take-charge appearance on behalf of One Direction in accepting the British Artist Video of the Year award at the 2017 Brit Awards.  Truly a gracious and humble acceptance speech,  but also triumphant as he stood next to the one who has tried to break their spirit.




What a moment to end on; they were all outstanding memories of 2017.  I know this didn't cover everyone; just a few positive highlights. 

Narnia Dispatches wishes our visitors a very happy and safe New Year's holiday.  What will 2018 bring? Hopefully, good health and peace for all.  After that, it's all toppings.

Same here. Let's hope this next year brings forth even more remarkable moments of success and expressions of bravery from all our favorite guys. Thank you, Liam. You've wanted to be a hero since you were a boy. I hope you know that millions of people consider you exactly that today. What a great way to kick off 2018!!! A message of redemption, solidarity and love. It's gotta get better.
