The success that Sam Smith has harvested with just one album is something to take very seriously. The number of millions that 'In The Lonely Hour' has sold, the Guinness record for the album that has been kept in the UK Top 10 the most times in a row, its 4 Grammys and the recent title song of the soundtrack of the new film of James Bond, 'Writing's On The Wall', which incidentally has been the first song of the entire film saga to be number one in the UK, all this is only comparable with the canceled concerts and the two months of mandatory rest that Sam Smith had to live after suffering that bleeding in the vocal cords from overwork.
Just reading that first paragraph makes it perfectly clear that Sam Smith needs a break. In fact, it was he himself who commented on it in an interview with ET Online, in which he spoke of the fact that, in addition to rest, it would be nice to be able to date again: “I haven't stopped in three years and the right thing for me right now is to go home and live my life, to be a 23-year-old. My love life and its ups and downs… it's something that never stops and that always inspires me, although it would be nice to be able to take some time to go back on dates ».
Regarding what will be his next album, he only commented that there are ideas of how he wants it to be, although there is still much to do. For those who cannot bear the wait, tell them that next November 6 will be released the reissue of 'In The Lonely Hour', which will include new songs as well as covers by Amy Winehouse and Witney Houston.
