David Sneddon has written some songs for Matt Cardle

  • August 30, 2011
  • Brad O'Mance

Matt Cardle has enlisted the song­writ­ing skills of David Sneddon for his debut album.

'Letters', which is due for release on October 17, will feature tracks co-written by the Fame Academy winner and will follow the first single, 'Run For Your Life'.

Before you start sneering and labelling people 'flops' here, there and every­where, bear in mind that Sneddon was of course respons­ible for co-writing tracks on Hurts' 'Happiness' — including certified corker 'Illuminated'.

'Run For Your Life' was written by a certain Gary Barlow, a man who seems to excrete songs in his sleep.
