The British crooner made the crowd dance with him by singing renditions like Amy Winehouse’s Tears Dry On Their Own and Aín’t No Mountain High enough.
Once again, Sam Smith proved how talented he is as a performer after his appearance from Chicago Festival. His number became a mini concert that made the crowd dance and jump to their feet.
Greeting the crowd with the question ‘Is anybody in the groove tonight?’ paved way to the party mood that made the fans scream with excitement.
The song was Smith’s dedication to Amy Winehouse, who passed away due to alcohol poisoning. This must be Smith’s way of showing respect to an equally talented artist who is by the way of the same roots.
After all, Winehouse was also another British musician who managed to penetrate and capture the taste of the international audience through her distinct sound and style.
Who can ever forget the thick winged eye Winehouse brought back when she first appeared right our very eyes?
Smith gave justice on covering a Winehouse’s song and actually made it his own without removing her vibe on the performance. This must be refreshing since we are accustomed with Smith singing us heartbreak songs and giving smooth, slow ballads.
Tears Dry on Their Own was then followed by the ever classic Ain’t No Mountain High Enough which is no doubt another spectacular number.
There was a part where the two songs mashed up that even made the crowd even crazier. It was no doubt one of those performances that is truly one for the books.
A song ‘Le Freak’ was also injected on the said song number by three backup singers that made it even more perfect.
Now, this is Sam being seen in a different light with his swaying and showing his own groove. Sam is talent personified. And it won’t be bad if we see him humming songs from different genre isn’t it?
