Grown Men Mourn Zayn Malik’s Departure from One Direction


Philly’s Dave and Brian, the goofballs who brought you “Downton Abbey With My Bros,” are back with another self-deprecating video that finds them mourning and crooning over the departure of Zayn Malik from U.K. boy band One Direction.

“No need to hide your emotions. Everyone has been deeply affected by Zayn Malik’s departure from One Direction. Teenage girls aren’t the only ones who can fangirl,” they write on their YouTube post.

They’ve come up with an original song, “I Need You In My Life,” that’s sung to the tune of 1D’s “Story of My Life.” It starts like this:

“Listen to the sound of the people who cry for you, Zayn / 1D will keep going, but I know that it won’t be the same / You left without a warning, now you say you’re making music on your own / I see your tweets and hit reply, but tears just keep falling on my phone.”

And it only gets sillier from there. Check out the full video above.
