On his collaborations, he expressed "Working with Fraser T Smith is wicked. He's someone I've wanted to work with for a long time. I have so much respect for the craft of songwriting, so working with people like Fraser and Guy Chambers, there's so much I can learn from them."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Tyler James talks new single, album, 'Voice' UK - Music Interview )〕 James' mentor on ''The Voice UK'', will.i.am has overseen the project. James stated "...the thing with will is that he's more overseeing my album. I'll send him tracks and he'll let me know what he thinks. I went for The Voice and didn't really think about it, to be honest. It wasn't a massive decision I made. Usually I wouldn't go for something like that because I'd be too scared. The chances of it f * *king up are so great, so now when I look back at getting to the final I'm like, 'That was f * *king lucky'. I hadn't really done much for four years leading up to that and that part of my life was quite sad and dramatic. So all of these songs coming out now reflects that. There is a part of my brain that's saying, 'Ooh, you better write something a bit more uptempo and happy'. But ultimately, if that's where your head's at, that's what you've got to do."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「A Place I Go」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
