Years & Years have shared a snippet of their upcoming new single ‘Starstruck’ while launching a new TikTok challenge.

The preview of the track follows on from the recent news that Years & Years will now operate as an Olly Alexander solo project. The frontman’s former bandmates, Emre Türkmen and Mikey Goldsworthy, will still remain close to the band, however.

The singer also announced the introduction of the ‘Starstruck Challenge’, explaining: “The ‘Starstruck Challenge’ is all about showing your finest post-lockdown glow up that is leaving everyone star-struck because you look so fine.

“So please go and have a listen, make your own video – and [I] can’t wait to see what you come up with.”
