Sam Smith Ushers in Holiday Season With “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”


Pop music’s biggest rising star Sam Smith just released a soothing, soulful version of the Christmas classic, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” backed only by a piano. This is Smith’s first endeavor into the Christmas canon, but he is no stranger to covers. Last year, Smith released renditions of songs by Whitney Houston, the Arctic Monkeys, Tracy Chapman and Bruno Mars. There’s no word on whether Smith plans on releasing any other Christmas tunes this season, but with pop rivals like Ariana Grande deep in the game, it wouldn’t be surprising if the British singer-songwriter released a full Christmas album sometime in the future. For now, we can enjoy this rendition as we get closer and closer to Christmas.
