Sam Smith

Mark Coles profiles Sam Smith who, it's just been announced, will write and perform the next Bond theme. Smith has rapidly become one of Britain's most successful musical exports - a four-time Grammy-winner who's been number one on both sides of the Atlantic. His music has been described as "safe" - even "boy-band soul lite" - but his chosen subject matter can be more challenging. His 2014 album 'In the Lonely Hour', a huge commercial success, is about unrequited gay love.
