Sam Smith & Kim Petras: Unholy

This is a tremendous song, and 3 versions I have seen - the original video, the one with the pink coat and this different Brits performance and the one called the orchestral version are all so theatrical and sexy.

It is a far cry from the theme tune for the James Bond film Spectre, the excellent "Writing's on the Wall" from only 7 years ago. Sam's voice is still so good but I think it has a harder edge to it and he has really blossomed as a dramatic performer too.

I personally think they are even sexier now that they have, shall we say, filled out a bit. So powerful and sexy.

Kim Petras is new to me but I love her in this song, I especially like the woop woops like a siren.!

You know what they say, you don't have to be good to be the first. Being the first non binary people to be on the billboards for top hits, you'd think they would've used the last hundred thousand years of music to base their composition on, but for some reason they decided to try and invent it from scratch. Those Aztek whistles that sound like a man dying in agony have more of a musical basis to this. It sounds like Sam, while transporting all the pots and pans in his house, slammed his car into a tree while going 100 on the interstate. Then, after the jaws of life had saved them, they decided "wow, this is a great beat!" And yet, by some marvel of the imagination, people enjoy it. God help them.
