James Arthur on trying to secure collaborations for 'Back From The Edge'

Singer-songwriter James Arthur has revealed that trying to secure collaborations for his new album, entitled Back From The Edge, was really difficult. 

He chatted to The Sun about his attempts to get stars such as Ellie Goulding and Rita Ora to duet with him and explained that they simply weren't interested:

"It was tough to get people involved in this one because I don't think anyone expected me to come back. I was calling Ellie Goulding and Rita Ora, all these guys saying, 'Do you want to sing this line?' I got nothing."

He went onto add that the success of his comeback single, "Say You Won't Let Go", prompted a few familiar faces to reappear and congratulate him: "They have all come crawling back saying, 'Well done, we always believed in you', I'm like so when I was calling trying to get a feature. At least people are humble and have come back and said congratulations."
