It’s still one of my biggest flexes to have met Sam in 2015. It was in Brisbane when I was at the venue early, my friend and I went on a walk and ended up meeting them. Their security stole our umbrella for them to get out of the car and they were so lovely and gave it back to us and said ‘omg don’t steal the umbrella from these girls and let them get rained on!! I’m so sorry’ and took photos with us and the couple of other fans who were there. Forever grateful, you could just tell how sweet and lovely they were in that brief interaction
Still regret not getting a photo with Sam back in 2013 when they opened for Jessie Ware. Sam was 6 feet in front of me casually talking to his team. 🤦♀
I’ve heard that “I sang through my voice break and kept high notes” story from so many vocalists that I’m genuinely wondering if there’s a science to it now
It worked for me. I’m transgender so my voice deepened only when I started testosterone at 48. I was singing alto in a choir at the time so I was singing regularly. In the first few months I completely lost my upper range and switched to bass in the choir after 5 months then, with a lot of practice, it came back and now, at 52, I’m a baritone who can sing the full alto range up to about a top E/F and have switched to tenor. I’m now just working with my singing teacher on strengthening the full range so I can produce notes at any level of intensity/volume without losing quality. I know another trans tenor (also in a choir) who had the same experience. It really is a thing. I think it’s due to maintaining flexibility in the vocal cords.
It really doesn't work like that, there's exercises made for that purpouse, but if you don't treat your vocal chords gently you'll have a lot of surgery to do. Many great singers actually did.
Sam Smith, up close, just seems really humble. They have an impressive vocal range. Their hit songs continued to be played and further appreciated all throughout the years. We wish Sam all the best in their career.
It makes me said because it feels a little like everyone has written off Sam's Bond Theme for Spectre, "Writing's On the Wall". I think it's a great theme, and as a longtime Bond fan, we were lucky to have their talent in that film.
I’m with you. I wouldn’t say I’m a fan per se, but I’ve watched all the movies since Pierce Brosnan because of my husband. Sam Smith’s is one of my favourite Bond theme songs.
I love the way Sam replied to the question, it’s so dedicated and conscientious, I love when they told their story, their feeling, their backstory, it’s so warm, intimate closeness like talking to a friend. It is not like an interview with a celebrity ❤️❤️
@Niallsoftiexo I don't care about pronouns. By that logic, I can say I'm a Walmart bag with the pronouns whoosh/whirl and you have to use it. No. You don't. Call me what you like, I don't care. You can say to me "Whoosh's such a nice person" and if I chose those as my pronouns, I'd love that you respected them. But you can also use he/him on me, and it won't hurt my feelings. Biologically, both Sam and I are male. I'm not gonna abandon the basics of all biology because someone doesn't want his feelings hurt.
@@dfblasedhu3609 That's hilarious. Is there actually a school that taught you that gender and S e x (YT censors it, so I had to do that) are not the same thing? Because they are. When you say you are the opposite s e x as a female, you are a male, and vice versa. When you say you are the opposite gender as a male, you are a female, and vice versa. Plain and simple. They are the same thing.
I didn’t realize so many people didn’t know the meaning behind stay with me. Your lyrics literally talk about it being a one night stand. I knew that from the start. I love all your answers. I love you wish you could have your first McDonald’s fry again lol.
Because stay with me could have several meanings. Don’t assume that just because you understood the lyrics on the first listen, that other people would automatically get it.
So much positivity from how Sam answered all questions. You can hear from the vocabulary he chose, the tone, the way he said it. You're a gem, Sam. Someone will be so lucky to have you in his life.

I’m a voice pedagogy nerd and choir teacher and there’s totally a pedagogical reason behind Sam “heavily” singing through their break. They probably figured out a specific voice placement that allowed them to get around the break. I encourage my boy singers in middle school to sing slightly more nasally than they think sounds good to do this. Some people are magicians and figure it out all on their own. The more you practice singing that way, it becomes muscle memory. Great job little Sam!

Pray literally helped me gather the strength that I needed to come out to my friends and family, Sam's music has done so much for me and it's such a beautiful thing that so many people have been touched by such a talented artist
Sam Smith opened for Jessie Ware back in 2013! I'm still kicking myself when I met Jessie, Sam was casually talking to another person 6 feet front of me and I could've gotten a photo. Didn't realize they would get this big. You should check out her music! She's a powerhouse of a singer too. Also, Sam's also been on her podcast called Table Manners where they talk about food.
She put out the best album of 2020 full stop. If you want to hear retro disco done right, go listen to her “What’s Your Pleasure?” album and you’ll be forever changed.
In the side by side frames of both "walk" scenes in Sam's videos, you can literally see there's a smile forming on their face in "Love Me More", as well as this stronger stride in their strut. Seeing someone come into their own and find themselves is so wholesome. I hope the next walk is even sweeter!
That profile pic from when he was a kid getting that award cracks me up and now I know the full story behind it, and his face makes sense... his face is saying what he was thinking in that moment, and that was extreme amusement at the situation of him accepting the award for healthiest eating for his school, he likely felt like he was the unhealthiest person with one of the unhealthiest diets there, and it gave him a sense of gratification almost to be accepting the award while not doing much if any of the work.
Why are they so amazing! Like everything Sam says is so sweet and comes from such a beautiful place. I am such a fan of all they do to promote self love and acceptance.
I think we feel you putting blood into your songs. We love nothing more than you putting 100% of you into your songs. That's what makes your songs great. Thank you sam smith for being you and giving truthfully lyrics to us. They are simply great!
Sam Smith is the kind of person we all need as a friend because they are so kind and can give you a hug that makes life better while telling you why you are being foolish and to stop being mean to yourself.
Sam has such a beautiful speaking voice, unsurprisingly. They seem like such a warm genuine person, I really like them. Love how they don’t let the haters bother them. ❤💜💛🧸🌈🏳️🌈
@@VenusEvan_1885 you realise the 'they' as a pronoun is used singularly on a daily basis right? If someone left their umbrella somewhere you'd say "oh they left their umbrella" or if sometimes people point a person out by using they, they might say "go pass this to them please?". You can't really tell someone how to live their life if you don't know them, or even if you do, you're not being hurt by their choices so just deal with your own life and don't add to whatever they're going through if it has nothing to do with you.
The thing about their voice @ 3:18 is absolutely true cuz it happened to me too. I sang through my voice break period (puberty) and now I can still hit high notes easily…..

Sorry if my comment confused you but I was literally just letting that commenter know to not feel too guilty if they don't know someone's pronouns, maybe they don't see too much of Sam Smith to know what they go by? Sorry for any confusion!
@@mil.o you do realise "they" is also a singular pronoun right? It's used in a singular way daily. If someone dropped a wallet and you found it hours later you'd say "oh someone dropped *their* wallet". You don't have the right anyway to tell someone how they should feel most comfortable. You aren't the one who has to be referred to that way, and it isn't hurting you at all.
It's so nice and refreshing to see people being respectful towards Sam's pronouns with all this hatred going around towards anyone who doesn't fit into the outdated society we live in

@@mateoakira Yes it was amazing really. I was filled with happiness during the show, when Sam showed up on the stage and started singing stay with me, I was about to cry 😌💕💕
There’s no single meaning to a song or any kind of writing for that matter, unless you want to hold the author’s explanation supreme. I love Sam talking about Stay with Me being played at weddings and funerals
I never really heard much about Sam Smith nor come across them but they seemed nice enough on tv but having watched this interview, I adore them. What a lovely chap, sweet voice and even sweeter personality. A truly sweet cutey pie. 👍
Still to this day Latch is one of my favourite songs. Seriously there is nothing like it. Do you ever hear a song and think, that’s the beat, vocals, everything that u have craved to hear? That’s what Latch was/is to me. I will never tire of that song. Sam Smith you are one of they singers that will have a career like the greats. Your voice is so soulful, love from Scotland 🏴
Spectacular artist Sam Smith. I just want to say that i'm really truly happy that i can feel that you're better now or doing better in life despite being a mere stranger to you. Everytime you sing, I just feel it straight down to the bones. I love it when u said your high ranged voice wont last but it'll age like fine wine. It's like life. Thank you for inspiring us with your music. lovelots 💗
I am SUPER excited that I am going to see Sam tonight in concert (with Jessie Reyez!). My sisters gave me this gift for my 55th birthday which was really an easy gift since that is the ONLY present I wanted. I wish they would sing Love Me More because I still feel this way about myself, even in my mid-50's. I am so thankful to go on this journey in life with Sam's music - words almost escape me (which is RARE, for those who know me!). Thank you Sam for showing us we can be our genuine self and celebrate life. Side note (as klt03301 stated below), I TOO had a dream that I was at Sam's concert, they saw my comment on line and they asked me to come up on stage to say hello!! I woke up smiling!!
Omg I had always like your music but, man, the way you articulate yourself I love everything about you more! "Everything has changed but nothing has changed" please don't ever stop being a great human!

I'm old enough to have watched Madonna tear down the walls, cheese people off. Be called sacrilegious and break barriers. Now, oddly, it all looks tame compared to nowadays. Sam Smith has that same exuberant jubilant energy. Tearing down walls, cheesing people off, being called sacrilegious. I am a religious person in my own way, and I love him.
I’m shocked Sam hasn’t worked with more rappers honestly. Sort of like how JT worked with Jay Z and T.I a lot, I think he’s got a voice that would work well with rap.

I absolutely love Sam’s speaking voice & he’s so sweet & genuine! I adore Sam!💖💗❤️💜💕
I will never forget Sam's SNL performance. I remember sharing it and watching over and over again, in awe of them. Truly, it was THE moment.
Pray literally helped me gather the strength that I needed to come out to my friends and family, Sam's music has done so much for me and it's such a beautiful thing that so many people have been touched by such a talented artist
As a nb teenager that has a passion for music Sam is just the biggest source of hope and inspiration.
I love Sam's voice, and their choice in songs. I also like the fact they're starting to look like Alexei Sayle.
Sam came out as nonbinary in 2019 and uses they/them pronouns just so you know :)

I don't know Jessie Ware, but helping Sam with their monitor was so kind.
Sam Smith opened for Jessie Ware back in 2013! I'm still kicking myself when I met Jessie, Sam was casually talking to another person 6 feet front of me and I could've gotten a photo. Didn't realize they would get this big. You should check out her music! She's a powerhouse of a singer too. Also, Sam's also been on her podcast called Table Manners where they talk about food.
@@xswtmiseryx07 It was so nice of her. Bad monitors are so annoying and can affect the performance.
Thank you. I will def check out her music.
She put out the best album of 2020 full stop. If you want to hear retro disco done right, go listen to her “What’s Your Pleasure?” album and you’ll be forever changed.
Sam Smith : gives us this awesome video
Most people in the comments : worried about gender

In the side by side frames of both "walk" scenes in Sam's videos, you can literally see there's a smile forming on their face in "Love Me More", as well as this stronger stride in their strut. Seeing someone come into their own and find themselves is so wholesome. I hope the next walk is even sweeter!
"Everything has changed, but nothing has changed." Amazing summary!
That profile pic from when he was a kid getting that award cracks me up and now I know the full story behind it, and his face makes sense... his face is saying what he was thinking in that moment, and that was extreme amusement at the situation of him accepting the award for healthiest eating for his school, he likely felt like he was the unhealthiest person with one of the unhealthiest diets there, and it gave him a sense of gratification almost to be accepting the award while not doing much if any of the work.
They / them
I love listening to them talk it’s so calming and sweet

I think we feel you putting blood into your songs. We love nothing more than you putting 100% of you into your songs. That's what makes your songs great. Thank you sam smith for being you and giving truthfully lyrics to us. They are simply great!
Sam Smith is the kind of person we all need as a friend because they are so kind and can give you a hug that makes life better while telling you why you are being foolish and to stop being mean to yourself.
Sam has such a beautiful speaking voice, unsurprisingly. They seem like such a warm genuine person, I really like them. Love how they don’t let the haters bother them. ❤💜💛🧸🌈🏳️🌈
they seem like such a chill, kindhearted person-- never got much into their music before but unholy has been stuck in my head for AGES
Speaking of collaborations: still want Sam Smith and Adele performing together or even recording one song
I’m a 65 years and really enjoy the songs. I’m from Perth, Australia.
Sam’s voice is so calming, I feel like they could do audio book recordings or calm readings.
He could do , it's a singular man
@@VenusEvan_1885 you realise the 'they' as a pronoun is used singularly on a daily basis right? If someone left their umbrella somewhere you'd say "oh they left their umbrella" or if sometimes people point a person out by using they, they might say "go pass this to them please?". You can't really tell someone how to live their life if you don't know them, or even if you do, you're not being hurt by their choices so just deal with your own life and don't add to whatever they're going through if it has nothing to do with you.
@@VenusEvan_1885 Don't try to reason with the crazies. It's a waste of time.

The thing about their voice @ 3:18 is absolutely true cuz it happened to me too. I sang through my voice break period (puberty) and now I can still hit high notes easily…..

@@lindsaystewart7720 I changed it. Sorry I can’t keep up with everyone’s pronouns especially people I don’t even know. I guess I need to Google search everyone’s pronouns before making any comments so the pronoun police don’t come for me.
@@standupp698 no it's ok that you didn't know! No one can say it's your fault if you had no idea before commenting. This person was just letting you know for the future :)
@@-toby-329 don’t forget anyone’s pronounce, maybe write a little note and keep it in your wallet or so.
@@ellenpastor4973 wait what..I never said I'd forgotten someone's pronouns? I adjust extremely fast to them and don't think I ever got them wrong for my friends. Sorry if my comment confused you but I was literally just letting that commenter know to not feel too guilty if they don't know someone's pronouns, maybe they don't see too much of Sam Smith to know what they go by? Sorry for any confusion!
I saw them live in 2018 and it’s still one of my favourite concerts I’ve been too! They were absolutely breathtaking! 😍
@@mil.o It’s their pronouns
@@mil.o you do realise "they" is also a singular pronoun right? It's used in a singular way daily. If someone dropped a wallet and you found it hours later you'd say "oh someone dropped *their* wallet". You don't have the right anyway to tell someone how they should feel most comfortable. You aren't the one who has to be referred to that way, and it isn't hurting you at all.
Ok. Well in that case I want to be referred to as a bag of crisps
We don't have that in French T_T Well, nothing official
Should I call him person or people??
It's so nice and refreshing to see people being respectful towards Sam's pronouns with all this hatred going around towards anyone who doesn't fit into the outdated society we live in
YES WE NEED A JESSIE WARE X SAM SMITH COLLAB
There's something very sweet, genuine and humble about Sam in spite of his amazing talent.
Sam is a non binary person. They use they / them pronouns.
I went to see Sam at Royal Albert Hall last week and I am watching this now, I liked him more and more. He is a beautiful person on the inside and the outside (not only Harry, you too Sam!) 💕💕
I also went there and it was amazing! Stay with me sounded holy and then at the end of the show...
Sam’s pronouns are they/them :)
@@mateoakira Yes it was amazing really. I was filled with happiness during the show, when Sam showed up on the stage and started singing stay with me, I was about to cry 😌💕💕
@@user-lb6bn8vy3e don’t care, he’s a man, end of story,
@@boxmad5523 you can be a man and also go by they/them :)
There’s no single meaning to a song or any kind of writing for that matter, unless you want to hold the author’s explanation supreme. I love Sam talking about Stay with Me being played at weddings and funerals
I never really heard much about Sam Smith nor come across them but they seemed nice enough on tv but having watched this interview, I adore them. What a lovely chap, sweet voice and even sweeter personality. A truly sweet cutey pie. 👍

That’s what Latch was/is to me. I will never tire of that song. Sam Smith you are one of they singers that will have a career like the greats. Your voice is so soulful, love from Scotland 🏴

Spectacular artist Sam Smith. I just want to say that i'm really truly happy that i can feel that you're better now or doing better in life despite being a mere stranger to you. Everytime you sing, I just feel it straight down to the bones. I love it when u said your high ranged voice wont last but it'll age like fine wine. It's like life. Thank you for inspiring us with your music. lovelots 💗
I am SUPER excited that I am going to see Sam tonight in concert (with Jessie Reyez!). My sisters gave me this gift for my 55th birthday which was really an easy gift since that is the ONLY present I wanted. I wish they would sing Love Me More because I still feel this way about myself, even in my mid-50's. I am so thankful to go on this journey in life with Sam's music - words almost escape me (which is RARE, for those who know me!). Thank you Sam for showing us we can be our genuine self and celebrate life. Side note (as klt03301 stated below), I TOO had a dream that I was at Sam's concert, they saw my comment on line and they asked me to come up on stage to say hello!! I woke up smiling!!
Omg I had always like your music but, man, the way you articulate yourself I love everything about you more! "Everything has changed but nothing has changed" please don't ever stop being a great human!
Loved this video Sam... You're fantastically authentic and so long as you keep making music, I'll keep listening. Thank you.
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate that shirt, I mean👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I'm old enough to have watched Madonna tear down the walls, cheese people off. Be called sacrilegious and break barriers. Now, oddly, it all looks tame compared to nowadays. Sam Smith has that same exuberant jubilant energy. Tearing down walls, cheesing people off, being called sacrilegious. I am a religious person in my own way, and I love him.
Sam you are so wholesome and talented!! Sending love from Philippines 🇵🇭
I’m shocked Sam hasn’t worked with more rappers honestly. Sort of like how JT worked with Jay Z and T.I a lot, I think he’s got a voice that would work well with rap.
