Sam Smith, Normani announce joint single

Sam Smith and former Fifth Harmony star Normani have teamed up to record a New Year duet.

The 26-year-old Grammy and Oscar winner asked Normani to join him in the studio after he discovered they were working on new material in the same complex in Los Angeles — and the result of their collaboration is new single Dancing With a Stranger.

“I’m so excited for everyone

to hear Dancing With a

Stranger, which I wrote on The Thrill Of It All tour last year,” Sam said in a statement. “For me, it bottles everything I was feeling whilst juggling my personal life and touring.

“It is also such a beautiful moment for me as I’m a huge, huge fan of Normani and everything she is. I’m so excited to watch her light shine. I hope everyone enjoys hearing this song as much as Ido.”
