FKA twigs "Stay With Me" (Sam Smith cover)

Published Sep 06, 2014
Following the recent release of her fantastic first LP LP1, UK pop experimenter FKA twigs has channeled a fellow Brit with a cover of Sam Smith's breakthrough hit "Stay With Me." Unlike the original track, which sees Riff Raff's bestie belting out the lyrics atop a lush, organic arrangement, FKA twigs opts for a more FKA twigs sound. That includes strange beats, ambient synth tones and hushed vocals.
