Stay With Me

Some songs give me goose bumps and this is one of them.

DJ Cat played it last Saturday on the Pink Party.

"Stay with Me" is a song by British singer-songwriter Sam Smith from his debut studio album In the Lonely Hour (2014). It was released in the United Kingdom as a digital download on 18 May 2014. The song was written by Smith and Jimmy Napier. "Stay with Me" is a pop ballad that details the protagonist pleading with his one-night stand not to leave him.

The song has become Smith's most successful single to date, peaking at number one in the United Kingdom, becoming his third chart-topper there (second as a solo artist), as well as in Canada and New Zealand. In the United States, it peaked at number two for two weeks on Billboard '​s Hot 100 chart becoming his first top ten hit in the country. It has also reached Top 10 status in over twelve countries worldwide, becoming his most successful single to date.

Sam Smith - Stay with me

Guess it's true, I'm not good at a one night stand

 But I still need love 'cause I'm just a man

 These nights never seem to go to plan

 I don't want you to leave,

 Will you hold my hand?

Oh, won't you stay with me

 'Cause you're all I need

 This ain't love it's clear to see

 But darling, stay with me

Why am I so emotional?

 No it's not a good look, gain some self control

 Deep down I know this never works

 But you could lay with me,

 So it doesn't hurt

Oh, won't you stay with me

 'Cause you're all I need

 This ain't love, it's clear to see

 But darling, stay with me

Oh, won't you stay with me

 'Cause you're all I need

 This ain't love, it's clear to see

 But darling, stay with me

Samuel Frederick "Sam" Smith (born 19 May 1992) is an English singer-songwriter. He rose to fame in October 2012 when he was featured on Disclosure's breakthrough single "Latch", which peaked at number 11 on the UK Singles Chart. His subsequent feature—on Naughty Boy's "La La La"—earned him his first number 1 single in May 2013.

In May 2014, Smith revealed to the public that he is gay.

In an interview with Fader, the 22-year-old breakout singer reveals that despite writing songs about love, he's never experienced it himself.

"I've never been in a relationship before," Smith admits. "I've only been in unrequited relationships where people haven't loved me back. I guess I'm a little bit attracted to that in a bad way. [My debut album] In the Lonely Hour is about a guy that I fell in love with last year, and he didn't love me back. I think I'm over it now, but I was in a very dark place. I kept feeling lonely in the fact that I hadn't felt love before. I've felt the bad things. And what's a more powerful emotion: pain or happiness?"
