Sam Smith described the prestigious job as "one of the highlights" of his career. "I am honoured to finally announce that I will be singing the next Bond theme song," he said.
The multi-platinum selling singer has co-written "Writing's On the Wall" with fellow Grammy winner Jimmy Napes. It is the first James Bond theme recorded by a British male solo artist since Tom Jones did "Thunderball" in 1965.
"I am so excited to be a part of this iconic British legacy and join an incredible line-up of some of my biggest musical inspirations. I hope you all enjoy the song as much as I enjoyed making it."
Spectre producers, Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson, called Smith's song "inspirational" and "surely one of the greatest Bond songs of all time".
