Sam Smith to Sing for New James Bond ‘Spectre’
When it comes to a James Bond movie, we all have been taught that there are at least two things it must have. One is a 007 British secret agent. Second, to be a Bond movie, it must have a high profile themesong.
The new upcoming Bond film “Spectre” already has a 007 British Secret Agent. Now it also has the theme song. It is sung by British singer and Grammy-winning songwriter, Sam Smith.
The 23-year old singer made the announcement on the social media site,Twitter.
It is the first James Bond theme song recorded by a British male solo artist since 1965.
The song is called “Writing’s on the Wall.” Sam Smith says it is a classic love song.
Over the years, other singers like Adele (“Skyfall”), Madonna (“Die Another Day”) and Tina Turner (“Golden Eye”) have recorded the theme song for other James Bond movies.
The song, ”Writing’s on the Wall,” will be released as a single September 25. “Spectre,” the movie, comes out October 26 in the United Kingdom, and November 6 in the United States.
