If you're looking for some lozenges today, there is a good chance that you were probably among the 33,000 fans screaming your lungs out at the One Direction concert held at the Singapore SportsHub. 

And when you weren't screaming, your fingers were probably doing it for you.

Social media site Twitter revealed that the One Direction concert has set the record for the most number of tweets for a Singapore-related event.

So what's the record? According to Twitter, it's "over 100,000" tweets from fans in Singapore as well as in the region.

Here are some of the more popular tweets from last night:

At the show, someone threw a bra... and Harry Styles noticed. (P.S. The girl who threw the bra brought an extra one)

And a Tweet from Payne thanking Singapore was retweeted almost 65,000 times.

Unfortunately for fans, the One Direction members could not stay in the country for long and have since flown to Bangkok.

If you can't be there with them, we will bring them to you (with the help of tweets of course).
