Sam Smith‘s third era may have kicked off in a promising manner thanks to the Normani-assisted ‘Dancing with a Stranger’ (one of the biggest songs of 2019), but the follow-up tunes lifted from its accompanying album – previously titled ‘To Die For’ – have all had varying levels of success on the Hot 100 with some missing the tally all together.
Hoping to change the tide, Smith is shining light on a new single: the Shellback & Oscar Holter-produced ‘Diamonds.’
Announced just Monday (September 15), the song arrives nearly two months after the GRAMMY winner’s last ill-fated release ‘My Oasis’ (featuring Burna Boy).’
Is ‘Diamonds’ just what’s needed to rescue Smith’s new album? Listen inside and tell us:
The video, which arrived at 12a GMT time, was directed by EMMY-award winning filmmaker Luke Monaghan.
Bringing the dancefloor anthem to life, the visual is the first official lift from Smith’s forthcoming third album, ‘Love Goes,’ due on shelves October 30.

Chiiiile BYE!
Bye Sam. You lost your mojo 20 “first singles” ago.
He flopped so hard he snapped back to his suit and tie aesthetic.
Ain’t nobody checking for that gender bending nonsense.
“Dancing with a Stranger’ (one of the biggest songs of 2019),”
Peaked at number 7. This is normani’s highest charting song
Camila cabello never be the same, a solo song peaked at number 6. Outpeaked normani’s highest charting song.
We love love love to see it .😂
@clarkson
you can’t be serious!
Dancing with a stranger – #14 billboard year end charts (2019)
Never be the same – #1 on the clarkson’s delusions charts
So? We are not talking about year end charts. We are talking about the billboard hot 100.
Never be the same still outpeaked normani’s entire discography .
A solo Camila cabello song did that.
When f******* gets a solo top ten hit come speak to me
It would have been a hit without her.
Doesn’t matter who directors the videos or writes the music … their going to flop!
That best new artist curse always comes around to bite
Alicia keys
Sam Smith
Alessia cara
Meghan trainor
Chance the rapper
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis
Camila hasn’t even been nominated for any Grammy yet there she is flopping like the deserted fish out of water she is
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Best pop vocal album – CAMILA
Best pop solo performance- Havana (live)
Best pop collaboration- seniorita
All Camila’s albums are Grammy nominated
💅💅💅
When u do clownery …the clown comes back to bite
It was far too early in his career for the gender neutral non binary junk. He shoulda stuck with what made him popular in the first place. The romantic soulful pop crooner. He was on his way to become the male Adele but fumbled his own bag. I don’t feel sorry for him.
If u like a artist then dont watch n keep your cruel comments to yourself u r rude n disrespectful and ignorant and disgusting
I agree, it comes off as forced, and quite honestly, unnessessary.
Sam I’m sorry but lewis capaldi has snatched ur wig
someone you love- peaked at number one
Before you go- peaked in the top 10 this year
Lewis capaldi is the new white boy from Britain who sings blue eyed soul.
Overrated tbh
Bye t*****!
Eh his music just doesn’t appeal to me anymore. It’s clear dance IS NOT his thing so why the constant shoving it down our throats, idk.
I’m not saying he can’t do it, maybe if he had more training…see I’m tryna give him a chance but nah not for me.
*she.
Or maybe “they” are a he today. But tomorrow? Who knows!
See I can’t keep up 😩
I got my new song I love it
Honest question – what kind of music and visuals do you all actually like? Just trying to see if you like things or just hate everything.
His songs have been pretty solid so far, including this one. I’ve been pretty hype for the album since HDYS but I knew then I was in for a LONG wait. And I was right. I am super over waiting centuries on albums. Who does that and does well? Anywho I’m ready for it, hopefully it comes out! This song is 🔥🔥
He floppped so hard after collaborating with Whomani
I like the song, added to my playlist, the video is a bit cringe-worthy because he’s not a dancer
I’m hot for Sam smith💋💋💋 the voice of gays 🌈
Great video. Sam Smith is so darn
s***!
