Ed Sheeran has ruled himself out of singing the James Bond theme tune because he thinks he lack the balls for it and has instead nominated singer Sam Smith for the job.

The 'Thinking Out Loud' singer told the Independent that he was a James Bond fan but he felt that if he was going to do it, it would sound a bit wet.

The 23-year-old singer continued that according to him 'The Hobbit' theme will be perfect for him as it was folk and guitar-driven song.
