Sam Smith has admitted he isn't the biggest fan of festive Christmas songs.

The singer made the confession despite having recorded his own version of traditional holiday tune 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas'.

Speaking with Boston radio station Mix 104.1, he said: "I hate Christmas songs. It's true."

He did defend his decision to put a soulful and jazz twist on this one particular track however.

"'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas' is the only song I would ever attempt to sing, because of Judy Garland singing it, and Frank Sinatra singing it.

"To me, it sounds more like a classic jazz standard."

Sam also spoke of how "excited" he is to attend the 2015 Grammy Awards after being nominated for six prizes, because people will finally know who he is.

"I'm just excited to go there because last year I was there and I sat in the very back and no one knew who I was!"
