Sam Smith is full of surprises. After just releasing his new theme song for the upcoming James Bond film Spectre, the British crooner has announced that he will be re-releasing his acclaimed debut album In The Lonely Hour. The 2014 album has sold nine million copies worldwide and won Smith four Grammy Awards. It will now be re-issued in an expanded double-disc “Drowning Shadows Edition.”
The reissue will contain both the 14-track original version of the album and a nine-song bonus disc. The latter will feature live versions and covers of Whitney Houston’s “How Will I Know?” and Amy Winehouse’s “Love Is a Losing Game,” plus a new song called “Drowning Shadows.” Also included are his collaborations with Mary J. Blige (“Stay With Me”), A$AP Rocky (“I’m Not the Only One”), John Legend (“Lay Me Down”), and Disclosure (“Latch” and “Omen”).
“This is a present directly from me to my fans,” said Smith. “This album, this journey has completely changed my life. So I have listened to all your wants and wishes and put some tracks on this album you all wanted originally. I also have a new song, and a special new cover for you all. This is my thank you to you all, and officially my final bow before my second album.”
