Ella Henderson has revealed that she wants to include a song about her grandfather on her upcoming debut album.

Fans of the X Factor will be familiar with the song as it is the one that she sang on her first audition and subsequently wowed the judges with.

She is thinking about recording a studio version of the song that will appear on her album it is released.

Speaking out about it, she said: "At the moment it's definitely on the cards, but I'm just seeing how it goes. There's a lot of new stuff coming out of me, and I'm mixing up with the stuff that I've written beforehand as well.

"There probably is a possibility of me re-recording that track and releasing it. We'll have to wait and see - I've got no idea what exact songs are gonna be on the album yet, but I think I'll definitely be doing something with that song."

Ella made a point of making it clear that she will be writing all of her material either by herself or with another songwriter.

She continued by saying: "The main thing for me was knowing that I have as much creativity and I'm involved so much that the one person it has to come from is me, otherwise there's no point in me starting to work on an album at all.

"I couldn't just sing songs that are given to me - it has to come from me. So, there's definitely a diary laid out and a plan, but there's no time pressure. I'm not under any pressure to get it done by a certain date. It's just when it's ready, it's ready.

"When I feel like I've written and got everything down that I need to say, that's when I know it'll be the time to release it."
