Sam Smith are motive de bucurie dupa ce a ajuns in Cartea Recordurilor cu cel mai recent single al sau, dar si datorita albumului In the Lonely Hour.

Piesa de pe coloana sonora a noului film James Bond, Writin’s On the Wall, este prima in istoria de cincizeci de ani a francizei care ajunge pe acest loc in Marea Britanie, asa ca cei de la Guinness i-au oferit repede lui Sam Smith o placheta. In plus, albumul sau de debut, In the Lonely Hour, a stat timp de 69 de saptamani consecutive in topul britanic, intrecand orice alta lansare de pana acum.

  

It’s been an unbelievable eighteen months – the album exceeded even my wildest dreams thanks to the incredible support of my fans, and to record the first ever Bond theme to reach No 1 in the UK is a real privilege.”

His second Guinness World Records title is equally as impressive as many talented artists for over half a century have tried and failed to write a James Bond theme and get it to the top of the charts, so what Sam has achieved will always be remembered in the record books, a declarat editorul Cartii Recordurilor.

Videoclipul pentru Wrinting’s on the Wall il gasiti aici si cuprinde, evident, si cadre din noul film James Bond, Spectre, care s-ar putea sa fie ultimul in care joaca Daniel Craig. Dupa ce au avut succes cu Latch, fratii de la Disclosure l-au cooptat din nou pe Sam Smith pentru piesa Omen, aflata pe cel mai recent album al lor – Caracal. Primul album de studio al cantaretului britanic a dat hit dupa hit: Stay with Me, Money on My Mind, I\’m not he Only One, Like I Can sau Lay Me Down, iar Sam Smith a ajuns rapid unul dintre cele mai apreciate nume din muzica. 

Ce ziceti de succesul lui Sam Smith? Il merita?
