Singer-songwriter Sam Smith, who came out earlier this year as "non-binary genderqueer," has released a cover of Donna Summer's iconic 1977 queer clubbing anthem, 'I Fee Love.'

Smith dropped the track over Halloween and is well on its way to having a million views on Youtube. The track is featured on Target's holiday campaign and will also appear on the singer's third studio album.

Smith turned to Twitter to explain why recording the track was so important to them, "As a queer person 'I Feel Love' has followed me to every dance floor in every queer space from the minute I started clubbing.

"This song to me is an anthem of our community and it was an honour and most importantly so much fun to have a go at it. Highest song I've ever fucking sang. But a joy. I hope you all like it."

I generally get hesitant when singers cover iconic tracks that I love, but Smith hits the notes perfectly makes the song their own.
