Taio Cruz has revealed his number one single 'Break Your Heart' was originally written for Cheryl Cole.
The hitmaker penned two songs for Cole's debut solo album, but as it turns out her record label didn't get in touch with the songwriter in time - so he released the track for himself.
"I wrote a couple of songs for Cheryl Cole, and Break Your Heart was one of them, Stand Up was another one, which is on her album, but we sent both of the songs to her record label and we didn't really hear back from them." Cruz told MTV News.
"We just thought if they're not going to get back to us, we'll just carry on moving so I took it back, and changed the verses and made it work for a guy and then put it out."
"They came back to us like later and were like "oh that Break Your Heart song, I've been listening to it on my ipod it's really cool! We would definitely like that for Cheryl."
"We were like 'that's gonna be kinda difficult now, cos it's all over the radio and we shot a video for it and everything' so that was quite funny. But I've been in the studio with Cheryl and we've written a couple more songs for her and stuff, so it's all good."
Taio Cruz releases his second album 'Rokstarr' on 12th October.
