It was late March – as the coronavirus spread exponentially across the globe - when Sam Smith shared a note on social media, informing fans that they would be pushing the 1 May release date of their third album to a later date, and renaming the release, which was originally titled To Die For.
The 27-year-old said in the message: "There will be an album this year, I promise!"
They added: "But until then, I am still going to bring out some new music over the next few months, which I'm incredibly excited about."
