Los Angeles May 12 (IANS) Singer Selena Gomez has delayed her third album as she fears recording a flop in the shadow of her hit track "Revival".
The "Come & get it" hitmaker s second solo album was released in 2015 and the star admits she s found it harder than ever to complete the follow-up reports aceshowbiz.com.
"This has been building for maybe two years " she said during a chat on Apple Music s Beats 1.
"I was really happy with Revival but at the same time I was terrified of doing another record because for me it could be like it was a step down or I needed to beat that record and I think every artist kind of struggles with that. So I waited. I wanted it to be great and had I not waited a good year or two I wouldn t have had the best songs I ve ever had " said Gomez.
The singer is currently in the process of "finishing up" the third album and is yet to decide its release date.
She gave fans a taste of her new music by dropping "Back to you" on May 10 and quickly cleared up speculation suggesting the song is about her on-off romance with former boyfriend Justin Bieber.
The 25-year-old says the song was written with her hit TV drama "13 Reasons Why" in mind.
