Pop star John Newman has had hits like 'Love Me Again', 'Come and Get It' and 'Blame', but one fan took it upon himself to give the singer some songwriting tips!
Taking to Twitter, the user known as Francisco, tweeted John giving him a breakdown of how he thought his songs were arranged.
The tweet continued, 'My personal opinion (as a fan) is that you should do more than 4 verses between chorus ('cos sometimes they're better than the chorus!) and work on your bridges (they're not the best) @JohnNewmanMusic.'
Taking this criticism in his stride, John responded to the fan with an in-depth breakdown of how his songs are ACTUALLY arranged saying,
'No my music tends to be:
2.Verse
2.Pre
Drop Chorus
Chorus
2.erse
Chorus
M8/bridge
Chorus
Outro
Thanks dude x.'
Francisco then quickly responded to the 'Love Me Again' singer reiterating it was just his opinion,
'Like I mentioned I'm your fan, this is just my opinion. It doesn't even matter because the music is yours. But thank you for correcting me tho.' sic
He continued, 'Anyway, haven't you ever think about changin' the structure once in a while?' sic
This is when John responded to Francisco once again, saying that he actually liked his new structure!
And it seems that John isn't the only person who likes his new structure. Many fans seeing this latest tweet confirmed they liked it too, leaving comments such as, 'And is a good new structure. I like it.' and 'It deserved to be liked' and 'i love it'. sic
John Newman is due to release his new single 'Fire On Me' very soon. This will be the first solo track from the singer since 2016 when he released 'Olé'. It's also been a massive three years since he released his number 3 album 'Revolve', so we can't wait for him to drop a new album, hopefully soon!
See some of the biggest pop albums to look forward to in 2018:
Camila Cabello
Camila Cabello announced her debut solo album will be called 'Camila' and revealed it will be released on 12th January.

Rihanna
Remember when it was normal to expect a Rihanna album near enough every year? 'Rated R', 'Loud', 'Talk That Talk' and 'Unapologetic' were all released within 12 months of each other. However, she has been busy with Fenty beauty so we can anticipate a 2018 release to make up for lost time.

Cheryl
Former Girls Aloud star Cheryl is putting in 100% for her comeback album and has even recruited star producer Naughty Boy to produce a track (or two?). She took to her socials to share some exciting news which hinted that she was in the studio with her former band mate Nicola Roberts. Possible 2018 album? We think so!
Nick Jonas
Following his 2016 album 'Last Year Was Complicated' - a break-up album, the ex-Jonas brother has promised his new music in 2018 and a potential party album. Yes!
Selena Gomez
It's been a long time coming. The singer has released 'It Ain't Me', 'Bad Liar', 'Fetish' and 'Wolves' all in the last year and undergone a life-changing kidney transplant. Selena is in better spirits and has an album coming. She has confirmed "there is an album" and "it will be out very soon". We're rooting for you Gomez.
Ariana Grande
AG4 is in the works! The pop superstar has confirmed that she has been working on her fourth album for over a year now, and shared some exciting photos and videos that hint she might be nearly done. We're expecting nothing less but pop greatness from Ari.
Rag'n'Bone Man
He confirmed in an interview he has 10 songs ready for a second album so why wouldn't he release it this year? This would follow-up his chart-topping debut LP 'Human'.
Liam Payne
The pop artist has already released 3 major tracks, 'Strip That Down', 'Bedroom Floor' and 'Get Low' with DJ Zedd. In a recent interview he said his album is "out in January". Well, we're waiting Liam!
Little Mix
The four ladies never rest! Having dominated the Top 40 all year long with 'Glory Days', rumour has it that we should be expecting a little something on the later side of 2018. Take your time ladies, but not too long!
Rita Ora
She has four UK Number 1 hit singles but due to label conflicts, we've been waiting since 2012 for a follow up to her debut album, 'Ora'. Thankfully, now signed to Atlantic, her album is scheduled for 2018.
