Little Mix Are Working On Their Fifth Album With RAYE
The 'Reggaetón Lento' hitmakers are already recording the 'Glory Days' follow-up...
It's been a huge week for Little Mix - new music, end of tour, new tour announcement - and they're not slowing down.
With Glory Days: The Platinum Edition not even a week old, we're still trying to learn the new songs but the band are looking forward to their fifth studio album.
RAYE has confirmed that she has co-written songs (plural!) that the girls have already recorded for their next project, meaning it must be further along than we expected.
Feeling feelings I've never felt
The way you got me under your spell
Don't you keep it all to yourself
So won't you take it?
I feel like for the first time I am not faking
Fingers on my buttons and now you're playing
Master of anticipation, don't you keep it all to yourself
Just a touch of your love is enough
To knock me off of my feet all week
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love is enough
To take control of my whole body
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love is enough
To knock me off of my feet, all week
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love is enough
To take control of my whole body
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love, oh
Photograph with no T-shirt on
Why you making me wait so long?
(Wait so long)
I promise to keep this a secret, I'll never tell
But don't you keep it all to yourself
So won't you take it?
I feel like for the first time I am not faking
Fingers on my buttons and now you're playing
Master of anticipation, don't you keep it all to yourself
(To yourself)
Just a touch of your love is enough
To knock me off of my feet all week
Just a touch of your love, oh (Just a touch)
Just a touch of your love, oh (Just a touch)
Just a touch of your love is enough
To take control of my whole body
Just a touch of your love, oh (Just a touch)
Just a touch of your love, oh (Just a touch)
Just a touch of your love is enough
To knock me off of my feet all week
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love is enough
To take control of my whole body
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love, hey
And now my whole week, my whole week is golden
Can you see me glowing? That's how I feel
And I'm not afraid to fade into emotions
'Cause I know that this could be something real
Just a touch of your love is enough
To knock me off of my feet all week
Just a touch of your love, oh
Just a touch of your love, oh (Just a touch)
Just a touch of your love is enough
To take control of my whole body
Just a touch of your love, oh (Only a touch of your love)
Just a touch of your love, oh (Want a touch of your)
Just a touch of your love is enough
To knock me off of my feet, all week
Just a touch of your love (Just a touch)
Just a touch of your love (Just a touch)
Just a touch of your love is enough
To take control of my whole body
Just a touch of your love, hey!
Just a touch of your love, hey!
Just a touch of your love
The 'Decline' singer co-wrote the brilliant 'If I Get My Way', one of three new songs on the Glory Days reissue, and revealed there's more to come.
Asked what songs she wrote for The Platinum Edition, she tweeted, "“If I Get My Way” on the platinum edition and hopefully some more songs are coming out soon."
Soon. SOON. SOON?! This is too much to handle.
Adding fuel to the fire, Leigh-Anne replied to a fan's 'LM5' theory on Instagram, suggesting they're currently aiming to release the album's lead single next summer.
The fan's theory would see the single drop "around May/June" in time for the band's summer stadium tour, with the album following in November and a worldwide tour in 2019.
Instead of scrolling past to see what Jennifer Lopez is up to, Leigh-Anne commented the fingers crossed emoji. WE KNOW.
Of course, anything can change and as they spend more time in the studio next year the girls could find a totally new sound and want to take their time. Or, they could pull a Beyoncé and do it in three weeks like B'Day, who knows?
For now, we'll keep the new Glory Days anthems on repeat and start counting down the days for The Summer Hits Tour 2018.
