Speaking in an interview on Sky Arts' Johnson and Knopfler's Music Legends, he explained: "We have been recording and recording and making loads of stuff but it got to the point where I thought, ‘We don’t need to get this out yet. We need to get it right’."

The BRITs Critics' Choice winner added: “For the second one we rushed to get that out and the third one we started rushing and I thought, ‘No, we have got to take the time’.

"I want to do the best I possibly can. I’d rather it be late and great than early and s****.

"What we have got so far I am absolutely over the moon with but I want to give it that bit more time and more thought."
