Top 10 Best Sam Smith Songs
Sam Smith didn't exactly sneak onto the music scene. They kicked the door wide open in 2012 when they lent their voice to Disclosure's Latch, turning a catchy dance track into a full-body chill experience. Just two years later, In the Lonely Hour arrived with enough raw emotion and vocal acrobatics to make heartbreak feel oddly comforting. Since then, Sam has moved between soul-baring ballads and radio-ready anthems, always holding onto the vulnerability that first caught everyone's attention. Their sound has changed over time, but you can still recognize it instantly.
This is my personal favorite because of the piano, the beat, and the amazing chorus. But that's not all. Last but not least, the lyrics. This song is very clever. He doesn't straight up say his lover is cheating on him, but he says, "When you call me baby, I know I'm not the only one."
It's beyond me how Stay With Me is more popular than this one. So glad this is number 1 on here though. Well deserved! Such a beautiful song in every way.
Just to clarify, I believe the version with A$AP Rocky is superior. The added rap lines make it an almost immaculate composition. Smith's singing is genuine and emotional. I don't really have any faults.
This song really sticks in your mind, but in a good way. It's really catchy.
It's like God (Batman) sent an angel singing. Nowadays, I can't sleep without hearing it at least 5 times.
Sam Smith sings very beautifully. I like this song!
Amazing. Along with I'm Not the Only One, it's my favorite. Magnificent song and the vocals are incredible. I just fell in love with the song the second I heard it.
Absolutely brilliant. I loved this song the first time I heard it. No one else could ever sing it as well as Sam. I'm glad it won an Oscar.
About the only thing that made Spectre bearable, as good as Casino Royale. No, but in all seriousness, one of the best songs of all time.
I don't understand how this is number 5 among voters and didn't reach number 1 in any of the charts. This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard (I'm 33 years old), and Sam Smith is an artist that we should be grateful to witness in our generation.
The emotion in his voice is palpable, and the pace of the verses emphasizes the longing. It's a work of art.
This is definitely #2 on my list because of the first chorus. It gives me goosebumps every time. This song shows his vocal range, his incredible runs, and just his beautiful soul voice. Perfect.
The acoustic version of this song is super beautiful. If you have not heard this song, you definitely should listen to it. It is a vocal masterpiece.

The Newcomers
I think that this is one of his lesser-known songs, but it should be known! It's such a great song. I think it would suit the soundtrack of a movie well. He's also done the Bond theme.
Okay, why isn't this on the top ten list? Come on, guys, you have to hear it. Aside from I'm Not the Only One and Stay With Me, this is also incredible.
This one should be in the top ten. His vocals are shown very greatly in this piece.

Fantastic song. Most depressing, no doubt, but it shows off his absurdly remarkable vocals.
One of the best... when a song blesses one within.
Why so low? This song is just too good!
The best of all of them. It means loads to me and is really good to cover.
This song brings me the feels. It shows the raw emotion of being rejected by someone you really love or even being friend-zoned. I bawled when I first heard it.
I don't know how this is so low down. It is wicked good! Probably my second favorite behind Lay Me Down.
This song is amazing. Just the rhythm makes me feel happy and calm. The video makes me think of a classic 70s or 80s theme. When I heard this song, I automatically fell in love with it. I'm not gay, but I love it.
Best song I've ever heard. He has so much talent.
You know that is a great song... (Stay with Me).
