One Direction star Niall Horan has released his new single Slow Hands.
The track has just received its first play across radio stations including BBC Radio 1 and Apple's Beats 1 and was added to iTunes, YouTube and streaming services shortly after.
The sexy song with heavy bass includes the lyrics: "Slow hands, like sweat dripping down our dirty laundry" and "there ain't no stopping your plans, and those slow hands." Ooh err!
The track is a stark contrast from his debut single This Town, which was a sweeter, more relaxed and acoustic offering. While still about love, Slow Hands sees Niall in a more mature, confident light. We're liking it Niall!
This Town peaked at Number 9 on the Official Singles Chart back in October 2016. The song also peaked at Number 1 on the Official Trending Chart. Niall's album is hotly anticipated, and you can learn more about it here.
Niall and his fellow One Direction bandmates Harry, Louis and Zayn have all reached the UK Top 10 as soloists - check out how they fared.
