NOW THIS IS ACTUALLY STILL SOUNDING GOOD

 

Thought I'd say because I acknowledge I've been incredibly negative all thread (and it's only going to get worse with coma-inducing Hozier to come, god I hate MOR).

WE COULD HAVE HAD IT AAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL

 

Stealing the 'Rolling in the Deep' opening and now supposedly being on the next James Bond single :arrr: We're on to you Samdele

Exactly why would a "Lawyer" be on "A witness stand"????????????????????? Surely he would be elsewhere in the court?

It's not just the opening, it's pretty much a rip off the whole way through.

This is the man who brought us such observations as "When I go home, I tend to close the door"

Biography

Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American singer-songwriter. Raised in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, Swift moved to Nashville, Tennessee at the age of fourteen to pursue a career in country music. She signed with the independent label Big Machine Records and became the youngest songwriter ever hired by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house. The release of Swift's eponymous debut album in 2006 established her as a country music star. "Our Song", her third single, made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number one song on the country chart. She received a Best New Artist nomination at the 2008 Grammy Awards.

 

Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008. Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", Fearless became the best-selling album of 2009 and was supported by an extensive concert tour. The record won four Grammy Awards, with Swift becoming the youngest ever Album of the Year winner. Swift's third album, 2010's Speak Now, sold over one million copies in its first week of US release and was supported by the Speak Now World Tour. The album's third single, "Mean", won two Grammy Awards. Swift's fourth album, Red, was released in 2012. Its opening US sales of 1.2 million were the highest recorded in a decade, with Swift becoming the only female artist to have two million-plus opening weeks. The singles "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" and "I Knew You Were Trouble" were worldwide hits. The Red Tour is visiting worldwide venues in 2013 and 2014.

 

Swift is known for her narrative songs about her experiences as a teenager and young adult. As a songwriter, she has been honored by the Nashville Songwriters Association and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Swift's other achievements include seven Grammy Awards, twelve Billboard Music Awards, eleven American Music Awards, eleven Country Music Association Awards and six Academy of Country Music Awards. She has sold over 26 million albums and 75 million digital single downloads worldwide. Forbes estimates that she is worth over $220 million. In addition to her music career, Swift has appeared as an actress in the ensemble comedy Valentine's Day (2010) and the animated film The Lorax (2012). As a philanthropist, Swift supports arts education, children's literacy, natural disaster relief, LGBT anti-discrimination efforts, and charities for sick children. - Wikipedia

Glad to see another Hozier hater, there seem to be too few of us on here.

I find Like I Can sounds more like Next To Me than Rolling In The Deep. Though, granted, Next To Me also sounds like Rolling In The Deep.

Can we not compare Sam to Adele plz. ('Like I Can' is much more 'Next To Me' than it is 'Rolling In The Deep' anyway surely? He can be compared to Emeli ~)

 

I really hope he's not doing the Bond theme, he would really not pull it off at all. :(

I'm not comparing, I'm just saying 'Like I Can' is practically a note for note copy of 'Rolling In The Deep' (which it is).

I actually think Sam Smith would be perfect for a Bond theme song.
