The 'In Case You Didn't Know' singer has teased what fans can expect from his recently confirmed performance at the BRITs next month.
Olly Murs has hinted that he may perform 'Heart Skips A Beat' at the BRIT Awards 2012 in February.
The 'Dance With Me Tonight' singer confirmed yesterday (25th January) that he has been asked to perform at the prestigious event, and has admitted he "would be silly" not to perform the track, which topped the Vodafone Big Top 40 back in summer 2011.
"Well I don't know, I can't say anything yet, but obviously I've been nominated for 'Heart Skips A Beat' so it would be silly not to do that song wouldn't it," Olly told Capital FM's showbiz reporter Kevin Hughes today (26th January). "I'm not saying I am doing it, but I'm not saying I'm not.
The 'Please Don't Let Me Go' singer admits he himself was surprised about getting asked to perform at the awards, which will also boast performances from the likes of Rihanna, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars and Blur.
"I was surprised myself to be honest," Olly revealed. "We said we'd love to perform at the BRITs and obviously you have to come up with something cool and different.
"I’m delighted I'm doing it, I'm glad they've asked and, like I say, I can't have any compaints," he continued. "It just makes you more determined that next year, 2013, I'm nominated for Best Male."
Olly Murs is nominated for Best British Single at the BRIT Awards 2012 in February for his single 'Heart Skips A Beat' featuring Rizzle Kicks.
