Here are some straight-up facts: the sky is blue, water is wet; Sam Smith could sing the phone book, and that might sound like a dream. Need of the test? The singer left a live performance of Coldplay classic “Fix” on the 5th of July, and is just as beautiful as expected. This Coldplay song seems especially poignant given the current events, so don’t be surprised if it strikes a chord.
Smith is no stranger to an emotional cover. Have melted the hearts with Whitney Houston “How will I Know” and “What the World Needs Now Is Love” by Jackie DeShannon, and even in a couple with John Legend in April to sing Ben E. King’s “Stand by Me.” We will take all the clues we can get from Smith’s next album has been postponed indefinitely. See his full performance above.
