After clearing his Instagram page earlier this year, Zayn started to post teasers for his new song, and album, called 'Room Under The Stairs'. One video teases his upcoming 'raw' album, nicknamed 'Z4' by fans, and two videos tease his current single.

In the video, Zayn can be seen walking a dog in a field, while the lyrics to the song appear on screen. The lyrics are: 'Am I crazy? Am I foolish? Am I stupid? For playing these games with you? If I told you I loved you, would you say that it's f--ked up?'
Zayn also shared the artwork for his single, along with the same lyrics, but a different video, also showing him walking through a field, but without the dog.
Teasing his new single on TV, Zayn appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where the audience had the chance to hear his new song as he appeared briefly on stage to hand the show's host, Jimmy Fallon, a piece of paper.
