Aled Jones has recorded a duet with his 14-year old self for his upcoming new album. The track, originally featured on one of his early teenage albums, will re-feature with vocals from the original and a new recording put on top. The quirky duet is what persuaded the Songs of Praise and Classic FM presenter to record another album. He told Aussie music website Undercover: "I recorded the track for Songs of Praise. I was going to sing the piece as an adult so I went to the studio and recorded it. But the producer had a version of it by me singing it as a boy. He played them at exactly the same time on a computer and they were identical. The phrasing, the ends of words and I knew then it was time to get off my backside and start recording again really".
