We’ve said this before, but Sam Smith has to be one of our favorite singers out now, across all genres. He’s undoubtedly put out some of our favorite songs in 2013 and we can’t imagine the heat he’ll lace when he actually puts out a full LP.
Fresh off the release of his Nirvana EP, he visited BBC’s iconic Maida Vale studios for a session with Zane Lowe and out of that, spawned this cover of the Arctic Monkeys single “Do I Wanna Know?” The UK star gives the track more of a soulful feel, yet commands it so much, we rather just listen to a studio version of this than the original.
No shots, blokes. We still fuck with AM.
