Niall Horan Releases 'Too Much To Ask' and Reveals 'Flicker' Release Date
New single, release date and album artwork all at once? Oh, we love you Niall...
Tired of 'Slow Hands'? No, neither are we, but Niall Horan just dropped a brand new single for us to obsess over!
Our favourite Irish pop star - Nadine Coyle aside, obviously - is here to make our Friday even better with a lovely new single 'Too Much To Ask' and the scoop on his debut solo album.
Last night Niall revealed his album Flicker will finally be released on October 20th and unveiled the dreamy artwork (essentially just a close-up of his gorg face) before dropping the new song. We are truly spoiled.
That's what she said right to my face
'Cause I want you bad
Yeah, I want you, baby
I've been thinking 'bout it all day
And I hope you feel the same way, yeah
'Cause I want you bad
Yeah, I want you, baby
Slow, slow hands
Like sweat dripping down our dirty laundry
No, no chance
That I'm leaving here without you on me
I, I know
Yeah, I already know that there ain't no stopping
Your plans and those
Slow hands
Slow hands
I just wanna take my time
We could do this, baby, all night, yeah
'Cause I want you bad
Yeah, I want you, baby
Slow, slow hands
Like sweat dripping down our dirty laundry
No, no chance
That I'm leaving here without you on me
I, I know
Yeah, I already know that there ain't no stopping
Your plans and those
Slow hands
Fingertips puttin' on a show
Got me now and I can't say no
Wanna be with you all alone
Take me home, take me home
Fingertips puttin' on a show
Can't you tell that I want you, baby, yeah
Slow hands
Like sweat dripping down our dirty laundry
No, no chance
That I'm leaving here without you on me
I, I know
Yeah, I already know that there ain't no stopping
Your plans and those slow hands
'Too Much To Ask' is a beautiful, piano-led ballad about getting over heartbreak, which the singer says is "a very special song" to him and one of his favourites on Flicker.
Following the effortlessly euphoric 'Slow Hands' would be difficult for anyone but 'Too Much' is an excellent follow-up, with Niall's voice sounding so lovely it makes heartbreak seem painfully romantic.
The song was produced by Greg Kurstin who also produced 'This Town', which hopefully means they've made more magic together on the album.
Flicker will be the third solo One Direction album we've had so far, following Zayn's 'Mind Of Mine' and Harry Styles' self-titled LP, and it's shaping up to be just as amazing as the others.
'Too Much To Ask' makes it 3/3 brilliant songs. We really can't wait to hear the rest of the album (NEXT MONTH!) now!

WATCH NIALL HORAN PERFORM 'THIS TOWN' BELOW
The smell of your perfume still stuck in the air
It's hard
Yesterday I thought I saw your shadow running round
It's funny how things never change in this old town
So far from the stars
And I want to tell you everything
The words I never got to say the first time around
And I remember everything
From when we were the children playing in this fairground
Wish I was there with you now
If the whole world was watching I'd still dance with you
Drive highways and byways to be there with you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you
I saw that you moved on with someone new
In the pub that we met he's got his arms around you
It's so hard
So hard
And I want to tell you everything
The words I never got to say the first time around
And I remember everything
From when we were the children playing in this fairground
Wish I was there with you now
Because if the whole world was watching I'd still dance with you
Drive highways and byways to be there with you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you
You still make me nervous when you walk in the room
Them butterflies they come alive when I'm next to you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you
And I know that it's wrong
That I can't move on
But there's something about you
If the whole world was watching I'd still dance with you
Drive highways and byways to be there with you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you
You still make me nervous when you walk in the room
Them butterflies they come alive when I'm next to you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you
Everything comes back to you
