AceShowbiz - Sam Smith is gearing up to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of their groundbreaking debut album, "In the Lonely Hour", with a special edition set to release later this summer. The "In The Lonely Hour 10 Year Anniversary Edition" coming out on August 2 via Capitol Records, will feature the album's original 10 songs alongside a brand new track, "Little Sailor".
