James Blunt has released his new single – Love Me Better.
The track comes after the You’re Beautiful singer got fans in a lather, by announcing his new album from his bathtub.
James, who was involved in a mishap with Ed Sheeran when Princess Beatrice pretended to knight him with a ceremonial sword, previously joked with fans: “If you thought 2016 was bad – I’m releasing an album in 2017.”
