Mark Robert Milan Getty Images. I was a bit of a late starter. One night, when he was 22, he got on a karaoke machine after one too many vodka Red Bulls.
You can actually sing. It was not, however, all sweetness and light. I even thought I had MS — I had to use a walking stick because my legs were so weak. I was on the verge of a breakdown.
We had a big argument. I feel like the next time I am going to see him is going to be at the worst place to see someone. As a kid, he was a keen footballer. He and Ben used to play football in the house.
Between and , he progressed from breaking ornaments indoors to playing semi-professionally in fields for Isthmian Division One North side Witham Town. I used to have a lot of pace, and now I have no pace whatsoever. Like Robbie, I used to drop deep, and get in behind. I was a bit of everything really. I was okay. I was always a bit of a cheeky chappie. That cheeky chappie status was threatened a few times in his career. In , he was acquainted with his exit papers as host of The X Factor.
It was reported that he suffered subsequently with depression. I actually went and did a new album [24 Hours] and was happy. There was a lot of things going on in my life at the time. He was travelling all the time.
He was living out of a suitcase. He was no longer with Francesca. I had no one around me. It was a difficult time. We all go through difficult times.

He plays the BBC six of the 12 tracks one, a duet called Unpredictable, is still unfinished, with a co-writer filling in for a secret guest star which eschew the star's frisky diet funk for a more melancholy, self-reflective sound.
Behind it all lies a heartbreak: Murs and his girlfriend of three years, property developer Francesca Thomas, split late last year and the record was written in the aftermath. One of the standout tracks is Flaws, a sombre, minimal piano ballad, where the singer wails, "I'm in chains while you're breaking free, and it's killing me. I did cause arguments. She caused arguments. We all have things that we don't like about each other. I've let myself down'.
The year-old says he didn't intend to write a break-up album, but the lyrics came pouring out in the studio. And then, all of a sudden you remember 'Oh no, I'm on my own. I miss her'. Murs laughs when I bring this lyric up. This song was an opportunity to say 'Seriously, I'm not too proud to try and make friends with you again, but you need to just grow up'.
That's the thing. People will think that and I'm going to leave it open to people to decide.
