Olly Murs' next single will be 'Dear Darlin''

  • April 18, 2013
  • Brad O'Mance

SHOT_18_0083f1 copyOlly Murs' next single will be the "heartfelt ballad" 'Dear Darlin''.

The song was co-written with your friend and ours Ed Drewett and will be available to purchase on June 3.

Olly had this to say about the song: "Writing with Ed and him being my friend [CLANG] helped, as we sat there for hours before writing, going over old rela­tion­ships and recalling their scenarios."

Fascinating stuff.

"It’s about writing to someone to tell them how I feel about losing someone," he 'explained'. "It’s not the kind of song you’d expect me and Ed to write, as we’re bubbly char­ac­ters, but we were able to open up to each other".

'Bubbly char­ac­ters'.
