Julia Michaels is moving onto the next one and it's about to be huge.

The singer-songwriter had her first sit down interview with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show Starring... and she gave an incredibly moving performance of her new single 'Worst In Me'.

View the lyrics
I'm jealous, I'm overzealous
When I'm down I get real down
When I'm high I don't come down
But I get angry, baby, believe me
I could love you just like that
And I can leave you just as fast

But you don't judge me
'Cause if you did, baby, I would judge you too
No, you don't judge me
'Cause if you did, baby, I would judge you too

'Cause I got issues, but you got 'em too
So give 'em all to me and I'll give mine to you
Bask in the glory of all our problems
'Cause we got the kind of love it takes to solve 'em
Yeah, I got issues
And one of them is how bad I need you

You do sh- on purpose
You get mad and you break things
Feel bad, try to fix things
But you're perfect, poorly wired circuit
And got hands like an ocean
Push you out, pull you back in

'Cause you don't judge me
'Cause if you did, baby, I would judge you too
No, you don't judge me
'Cause you see it from the same point of view

'Cause I got issues, but you got 'em too
So give 'em all to me and I'll give mine to you
Bask in the glory of all our problems
'Cause we got the kind of love it takes to solve 'em
Yeah, I got issues
And one of them is how bad I need you

(I got issues, you got 'em too)
And one of them is how bad I need you
(I got issues, you got 'em too)

'Cause I got issues, but you got 'em too (I got)
So give 'em all to me, and I'll give mine to you (you got 'em too)
Bask in the glory (I got issues)
Of all our problems
'Cause we got the kind of love it takes to solve 'em (you got 'em too)
Yeah, I got issues (I got)
And one of them is how bad I need you (you got 'em too)
Yeah, I got issues (I got issues)
And one of them is how bad I need you (you got 'em too)

Yeah, I got issues (I got)
And one of them is how bad I need you

As though she was singing it for the first time, Julia was left breathless after giving her all as she sang of the heartbreak that comes with a relationship falling apart.

'Worst In Me' is the third single to be released from the brilliant Nervous System, her debut release as a singer that she calls a "mini-album".

Following the worldwide hit 'Issues', Michaels unleashed her inner rock chick on the more uptempo 'Uh Huh' back in June but the former was still dominating radio and streaming so much that it somehow fell through the cracks.

It was recently announced that Julia will be supporting Niall Horan on his sold-out UK tour next Marchm, which will be the solo star's first ever run of shows. We are so excited!

If this emotional performance is anything to go by, we doubt that people will be able to ignore 'Worst In Me' - and they shouldn't...

It's electric how my lipstick
Makes it's own way right into your kiss and
It's pathetic how we both get kind of fucked up
Hanging on each other

We're ahead now
Should we slow down?
Should we slow down now?

'Cause I'm getting some kind of shake without you

Uh huh
I think you're movin' in too close
But I think that it's my body wantin' it the most, like

Uh huh
I don't know what it is I feel
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill, like

Uh huh (uh huh)
Uh huh (uh huh)
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill

It's electric how symmetric
We both get when you lay beside me
It's phonetic how our mouths grip
Almost too tight to the words we're sayin'

We're in deep now
Should we slow down?
Should we slow down now?

'Cause I'm gettin' some kind of shake without you

Uh huh
I think you're movin' in too close
But I think that it's my body wanting it the most, like

Uh huh
I don't know what it is I feel
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill, like

Uh huh (uh huh)
Uh huh (uh huh)
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill, like

Uh huh (uh huh)
Uh huh (uh huh)
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill

Goin' in for the kill

Goin' in for the kill

It's rare when the panic in my mind feels so damn good
Woo!

Uh huh
I think you're movin' in too close
But I think that it's my body wantin' it the most, like

Uh huh
I don't know what it is I feel
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill, like

Uh huh (uh huh)
Uh huh (uh huh)
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill, like

Uh huh (uh huh)
Uh huh (uh huh)
But I know it's my emotions goin' in for the kill

Goin' in for the kill

Goin' in for the kill

Uh huh
