Aston Merrygold's New Album Coming In 2015
The former JLS star has also teased a number of collaborations on the record...
Former JLS star Aston Merrygold has confirmed he will release his debut solo album next year.
Speaking to The Mirror at the Pride Of Britain Awards, the singer revealed: "I've been hidden away in a cave for the last 12 months now.
"I've been trying to find myself, but I'm in a good place right now and I'm ready to go."
When probed for a release, he added: "In the New Year, things will be ready to go. I say New Year but that's not even long! (It will be) four months-ish."
Merrygold - who signed his solo record deal in September - went on to tease that his new LP will include more than one collaboration, but refused to give away any clues.
Reaching for daylight,
Nothing wrong with all right,
But that ain't me
I make suggestions,
Answers to questions,
All that they told me
Was let it be
Coz all my life,
You know I was dreaming about,
About a way to find a way out,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
They say that man ain't meant to fly,
But I'm reaching up for the sky,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
Countless obstacles in my life,
I just can't seem to do right,
But I keep trying
It seems they wanna knock me down
Like Mya, still I rise,
It won't happen this time, no,
I made up my mind
Coz all my life,
You know I was dreaming about,
About a way to find a way out,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
They say that man ain't meant to fly,
But I'm reaching up for the sky,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
Da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da,
Yeah
Mountains in my way, I can't lie,
At times they seem too high,
But I just climb
I told them that I won't stop 'til I reach the other side,
They don't get to decide, no,
I made up my mind
Coz all my life,
You know I was dreaming about,
About a way to find a way out,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
They say that man ain't meant to fly,
But I'm reaching up for the sky,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
Nothing stays the same,
Everything's meant to change,
See, I'm meant to be free,
So take your chains off me
I'm gonna turn it around,
Nothing can stop me now,
Some things are meant to be,
This time it's about me
Coz all my life,
You know I was dreaming about,
About a way to find a way out,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
They say that man ain't meant to fly,
But I'm reaching up for the sky,
You know, You know
They can't hold me down
Da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da,
Da, da, da, da, da,
Yeah
Stuck on the darkside,
Reaching for daylight,
Nothing wrong with all right,
But that ain't me
"I'm trying not to smile, but it is exciting!"
