The 'Lay Me Down' singer has topped worldwide charts with debut album 'In The Lonely Hour', but insisted he isn't feeling anxious about creating the record's follow-up LP, as he recently penned a "really, really, really good" track.

Speaking in a new interview on BBC Radio 1 to Nick Grimshaw, he said: "I'm very passionate about growing with music and growing as a person, and actually I wrote a song a few weeks ago which has taken the pressure off me because it feels really, really, really good, so no I'm not feeling pressure. I'm never going to repeat what I just did, it's just going to be different."

In recognition of his huge success, the 22-year-old won a BRIT Award for British Breakthrough Act and Global Success at Wednesday night's ceremony, and explained the win along with his four Grammy awards have made him determined to improve.

He went on to say to the Daily Star newspaper: "Getting the Breakthrough award was particularly exciting because it's from the fans.

"Winning BRITs makes me want to work harder on my voice, train more and just get better and better."
