Speaking at the Amazon, the ‘Heart Skips A Beat’ star admitted that going home for the holidays is the one thing he’s looking forward to the most:

“I’m most looking forward to eating at my mum’s (this Christmas). I haven’t had a dinner at my mum’s this year and that is pretty bad. I am really looking forward to having her roast dinner.”

The singer went onto talk about his most treasures Christmas memory and confessed that getting a sought-after games console is right up there: “My favourite ever Christmas memory is the year I got a Sega Megadrive, I will never forget it, it was my first real games console. We didn’t have much money at Christmas and I got that so it was a big thing.”

Recently Olly recorded the new Band Aid single and by Paul Weller, who wrote a song especially for him.

“It was very random,” Murs says of the unlikely collaboration.

“I was at the Royal Albert Hall watching Paolo Nutini and we met backstage. I had a picture taken with Paul and he said: ‘Are you doing your album right now? I’d love to send you a song.’

“Obviously, I didn’t think he’d actually do it but the email came through the next day, and there was a song on it from him. It was amazing.
