Grammy-winning singer Sam Smith is putting together his favourite new songs into a notebook so that he can "treasure" the ideas forever.
Alongside a picture of his new pad, he wrote, I've decided with this album to put it all in one notebook, and treasure it. Currently writing out the songs I've already done that I love. This is exciting (sic)."
The "Writing's On the Wall" singer, 23, splashed out on the notebook after losing all the original lyrics and notes for all his old songs as he used to just jot his ideas down on scrap paper.
"Ever since I started writing songs, from the age of 12 (my first song I wrote was called 'Yellow Hat' - don't ask) all the lyrics and ideas I've ever written have been on random bits of paper and phone notes that I wish I still had to look back on (sic).
