Sam Smith is a Grammy and Oscar-winning singer and songwriter from London, England. Their first album, Within the Lonely Hour, got here out in 2014. It went quintuple platinum within the US, and the largest hit from that album is the music “Keep With Me,” which has over 2 billion streams on Spotify alone.

The 2 of them inform the story of how the music started, and the way it become the hit that it grew to become. After which, years later, the way it modified once more.
