A Message From Will

23/7/2002

"I have been working really hard since Pop Idol and it¹s great to know that I have fans who are as passionate about what I do, as I am!

I want to reassure them that I am very happy and that they needn't worry. I appreciate their concerns, but the plans for my career are very exciting and I can't wait to release the album.

Gareth and I are genuinely good friends and enjoy all sorts of music, but our styles are very different. The duet, which we are releasing on Sept 23rd, sounds fantastic! After the great response we got to it on the show and as a thank you to all our fans, we felt it would be a great track to celebrate a great year. After this, both Gareth and I will move on and take the very different routes of music we both want to follow.

Since Pop Idol, I have wanted to spend as much time as possible writing and co-writing with some great singers/song writers in the studio, rather than recording new tracks for immediate release, which will hopefully mean that my first album will be as good as it possibly can be, and will get a great response.

On the album there will be plenty of original, self-written and co-written material. I know there's a huge demand from my fans to hear some original Will songs, which is hugely flattering, and I am as keen to get them released as you are! I just want to make sure that when I do release them, I am really proud of them.

Thank you to every fan who has taken the time and interest in my career to contact The Sun and please believe me when I say that I am extremely happy with how things are going and everything my new job has brought with it. Your emails and comments mean a great deal to me and have given me the motivation to go back into the studio and work even harder on the album so that you're not disappointed! Fingers crossed!

Take care,­ Will"
