"I've always liked folky, acoustic music but I've never fully explored it. I turned back time and was listening to Johnny Cash and early Elton John before I wrote 'Let Me Go'," Barlow told The Sun.

"I'm 42, I don't want to do urban or dance music."

On claims his new single sounds similar to Mumford & Sons, he added: "I love Mumford & Sons - it's good, English music, but let's be honest, they got it off Johnny Cash too."

Since I Saw You Last also features a duet with Sir Elton John titled 'Face to Face' and is out on November 25, followed by a UK tour next April.
