'All Of Me' crooner John Legend has revealed that he loves Sam Smith's songs and they have been emailing back and forth since his agent put them in touch. 

He opened up to Magic FM about his admiration for the 'supremely talented' singer and praised the 'Stay With Me' sensation's vocal ability: 

"I love Sam. Before his album even came out in the States my agent actually sent me an email and said you've got to check out this guy Sam Smith. He put us in touch with each other. We actually haven't met in person but we've emailed a few times and he's supremely talented. It always makes me happy when good soulful music is doing so well, because it just shows that there's hope."

Legend then went onto talk about Adele and confessed that he would be really interested in working with her in the future if the opportunity ever presented itself: "I would love to work with Adele. She's one of my favourites and I think we would sound good together so that would be cool."
