Sam Smith scores TWO Guinness World Records as his James Bond track becomes the movie franchise's first-ever UK Number 1

First look: Sam released the first teaser for his James Bond  tune on his Twitter page, earlier this month
Brit singer Sam Smith got himself two new Guinness World Records to his long list of awards.
Smith's theme song for the new James Bond movie Spectre, Writing's On The Wall, has become the first song in the franchise's more than 50-year history to hit number one in the UK Singles Charts.



Meanwhile, his debut album - In The Lonely Hour - has stayed in the UK Top 10 Album Charts for 69 consecutive weeks, earning him a double-whammy.


Speaking about the achievement, Smith said: 'This is so amazing! It's such an honour to be recognised by Guinness World Records.

'It's been an unbelievable eighteen months - the album exceeded even my wildest dreams thanks to the incredible support of my fans, and to record the first ever Bond theme to reach No 1 in the UK is a real privilege.'

Preview: Sam, 23, recently released his full video for  the acclaimed Bond theme on Monday October 5

Big clue: Sam dropped the first major hint that he would be recording the theme song when he shared a snap of him wearing a ring emblazoned with the Spectre logo earlier this year, after months of speculation
