Sam Smith’s new album is “very romantic” and is inspired by their relationship with Christian Cowan.
The 34-year-old singer-songwriter and the 32-year-old fashion designer have been dating for more than three years, and Sam has revealed how their upcoming fifth studio album, Hazel Eyes, tells of “the first two years of meeting someone that you’re with for a long time”.
Speaking on the Dish podcast, they said: “I moved to New York to be with my partner. So that, the album kind of soundtracked the move from England to America.
“So, you can kind of hear that in some of the music. Yeah, I mean, the one, the first song on the album I wrote about the night before meeting my partner, and then it takes you through the first two years of meeting someone that you’re with for a long time.
“It’s a very romantic album, and very, just kind of proud in the romance.”
Sam feels “very proud” of their upcoming new record.
They added: “You know, I like flowery, beautiful things, so I’ve leaned into that and I’m just very proud of it. I love it.”
The Stay With Me hitmaker recently told how their new album, which will be available from August 21 via Capitol Records UK, is “very personal”.
Sam said: “This album is an incredibly special record to me. I have been writing it for over three years with a very small group of beautiful, dear friends of mine.
“This album is very personal, and I feel I have deepened myself as an artist through the making of it, through being a producer on the record, to walking alongside this record from the start to the finish and pushing myself at every single turn.
“This record and this music is incredibly romantic.”
And Sam admitted they learned “so many life lessons” while creating their new record.
They added: “I’ve learned so many life lessons through making this album, and I’ve documented it all through the music.”
