Will Young rejects Gareth Gates duet

Will Young won't include his duet with Gareth Gates when he releases a Greatest Hits album.

The singer confirmed that he 'isn't a fan' of the pair's cover of the Beatles song 'The Long And Winding Road' and plans to leave it off his singles collection.

"I've never really had a single that's completely bombed, but there are ones I prefer more than others," he told DS.

"I'm not an enormous fan of singing 'The Long And Winding Road' so I don't think I'll put that one on."

The star went on to congratulate Gates on securing the lead role in Joseph And The Technicolour Dream Coat.

"When I was at drama school I would have dreamed about doing that. You get really good money too, so he's probably on more money than me!

"I speak to him sporadically and he's a happily married man now. He's doing better than me – I'm single and 30, what a loser!"

Will Young releases his new single 'Let It Go' on March 2.
