Olly Murs is starting to think about his next album, the follow-up to the UK #1 Right Place Right Time, and he has his sights set high as far as collaborations go. He's hoping to collaborate with stars like One Direction, Calvin Harris, Robbie Williams, Example, and Gary Barlow.
Speaking to the Daily Star, Olly said: "I haven’t seen Niall Horan for a while, we are going to see each other soon and hook up to do something, have a beer and catch up."
"The next thing is a duet for me. I’ve never done that before. Getting Rizzle Kicks and Flo Rida on my records was brilliant, but it’s about the right next choice for me."
Olly is also open to teaming up with some of the big names in EDM saying: "Calvin Harris would be great to do a dance record with, maybe a bit of Example, we’ll see."

As far as some writing collaborations, Olly mentions Gary Barlow and Robbie Williams as collaborations: "I’m going to write a song with Gary, we’ve been speaking about it for years but it will happen for the next album. I saw him at Dermot O’Leary’s party and pulled him to one side and said: ‘Let’s get in the studio and see what happens.’"
"We want to get Robbie in too, maybe even both of them at the same time to write a song, that would be great," he added.
Olly is currently hard at work writing his new album and hopes to have it finished by May of next year so he can "start summer 2014 with a bang."
"My fourth album could be my Thriller, the big one. I’m close to four million albums sold across the world. The fourth could tip me over," he said. "I’m writing this summer, then next year is the main recording period. I want to get it finished by May and start summer 2014 with a bang."
