That's Smith. Sam Smith.
We LOVE a good James Bond theme song over in these parts! From “Live and Let Die” to “The World is Not Enough” and the AMAZING “Diamonds are Forever”, the theme songs for James Bond films are iconic and solidify the singer as a part of a great film legacy.
Sam Smith is now destined to be a part of this legacy, as it was announced he has recorded “Writing’s on The Wall” for the 24th James Bond film, Spectre.
Smith said, "This is one of the highlights of my career. I am honoured to finally announce that I will be singing the next Bond theme song. I am so excited to be a part of this iconic British legacy and join an incredible line up of some of my biggest musical inspirations. I hope you all enjoy the song as much as I enjoyed making it."
Multi-platinum selling artist Sam Smith has co-written the title song, "Writing's On The Wall," with fellow GRAMMY® Award winner Jimmy Napes. It is the first James Bond theme song recorded by a British male solo artist since 1965.
“Writing’s on The Wall”, released by Capitol Records, will debut and be available to purchase and stream on September 25th.
SPECTRE is set for release in the UK on October 26, 2015, and in the US on November 6, 2015.
