After a lengthy amount of time denying his involvement with the theme song for the latest James Bond film Spectre, the rumors were finally debunked and now, Sam Smith has finally released his film track "Writing's On The Wall."
"I have been dreaming of this moment for a long long time," the British singer wrote on Twitter. Upon the theme's announcement, Smith recently explained, "This is one of the highlights of my career. 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."
Spectre will see its official release in the UK and Ireland on Monday, October 26, the same day as its world premiere. It will hit the international cinema circuit on a handful of later dates, with its release in the U.S. slated for Nov. 6.
"I'm so relieved to actually talk about this, this has been top secret mission of my own. I got called into the office with Barbara Broccoli and Sam Mendes and they gave me the script, I read the script... they said, 'Have a go at the song'," he told Radio 1 presenter Nick Grimshaw.
"It's the quickest I've ever written a song - it took 20 minutes - and they loved it! I love the song so much," he added.
