He wrote:
This is one of the highlights of my career. I am honoured to finally announce that I will be singing the next Bond theme song.

I am so excited to be a part of this iconic British legacy and join an incredible line up of some of my biggest musical inspirations.

I hope you all enjoy the song as much as I enjoyed making it.

Aww!
The track will be available for purchase and to stream online on September 25. Wah, that’s too far away!
The British cutie co-wrote the single with fellow Gramophone recipient Jimmy Napes. In fact, the film’s theme song will be the first Bond anthem to be recorded by a British male solo artist since 1965. Way to SLAY!
The producers of the project, Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, noted:
“Sam and Jimmy have written the most inspirational song for Spectre and with Sam’s extraordinary vocal performance, Writing’s On The Wall will surely be considered one of the greatest Bond songs of all time.”
FIERCE!
We have a feeling his soon-to-be hit could even trump Adele‘s 007 track, Skyfall! Could this mean Smith might win an Oscar in 2016?! Oh we hope so.
