Watch Sam Smith bring ‘Lay Me Down’ to T in the Park
The singer-songwriter played the Main Stage yesterday.
Yesterday saw T in the Park kick off at its new home of Strathallan Castle, with a headline set from Kasabian, and other acts playing including Lucy Rose, Prides, Hot Chip and a Mark Ronson DJ set that we might have spent ‘quite a long time’ watching on TV even though visually it was a man on a computer.
Also appearing was saucy warbler Sam Smith, who during his Main Stage set covered Amy Winehouse’s ‘Tears Dry on Their Own’ - as well as played his own songs, from which you can watch ‘Lay Me Down’ below.
