Sam Smith will be performing the new Bond song!

London - Sam Smith has confirmed that he's recorded the new James Bond anthem.

The I'm Not the Only One, who has long been rumoured to sing the theme song for Spectre, confirmed the news on Instagram. 

"This is one of the highlights of my career. I am honoured to finally announce that I will be singing the next Bond theme song.

"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. You can pre-order 'Writing’s On The Wall' on CD or vinyl using the link on my profile, or on iTunes from midnight," Smith wrote.

The Grammy Award winner recently denied he'll be lending his soaring vocals to the song.

Asked on BBC Radio 2 whether he's currently working on the 007 music, he said: "That's not me. That's definitely not me. I've still got loads to do, I've got an Australia tour, but I kind of finish in December which is great, it gives me a chance to be in London, be in my home and go out with my friends."

Spectre, starring Daniel Craig and directed by Sam Mendes, is due for release next month.
