Hurts are keen to start writing songs for other people

  • March 20, 2013
  • Brad O'Mance

hurts-540x404Theo from Hurts would quite like to write songs for other people to sing.

"We haven't done anything for other artists before, but we feel like we might be ready to do that now," he mused to — YOU KNOW IT GUYS — the Daily Star Playlist.

"I like the idea of writing a song and giving it away and letting it loose on the world."

But why does that idea appeal to you, Theo?

"Then you are free of it, so it goes on a little journey of its own," he added.

The article also 'reveals' that the duo will release 'Blind' as their next single.
