Sam Smith recently shared the title track from their upcoming album Gloria.

In a statement, Smith called the title track “my queer love hymn, saying life is a song to Gloria, the thing I can’t put a word to. I don’t know if it’s nature or a feminine energy inside me that I’m setting free.”

“Gloria” was written by the artist during lockdown and later completed with the help of Jimmy Napes.

“Demons on my shoulder/Monsters in my head,” Smith sings in the one-minute-50-second song. “Shadow in the water/Will you be my friend?”

“Gloria” follows three previously released tracks from the album – “Love Me More,” the Koffee and Jessie Reyez-featuring “Gimme,” and the smash hit collaboration with Kim Petras, “Unholy.”

Gloria, which is due out on January 27 via Capitol Records, is Smith’s first album since 2020’s Love Goes.
