    by Patel Aminata: Sam Smith

    Sam Smith just dropped a real talk moment in the Apple Music Music Room about how love used to scare them. Back then, there was this fear that finding happiness would shut off access to those deep melancholic feelings artists need for their work. But after four years of being in a beautiful relationship, things shifted. They realized relationships have so many ups and downs and you don't lose the sadness, you actually tap into it deeper than ever before. #SamSmith #AppleMusic

    For a while I was actually quite scared to fall in love because as an artist I was worried that I wouldn't be able to access the kind of deep, melancholic, kind of sad feelings that were so good to access in music if I fell in love and allowed myself happiness. but after three years, four years now of being in a beautiful relationship I've realized that there's many, many ups and downs and you can still access those things and I actually think I've kind of accessed those things deeper than I ever have before.
