Oooooof. Gloucestershire native and soundtrack curator of your nightly dreams FKA Twigs stopped by the Live Lounge at BBC Radio 1, and brought her not-quite-minimalist electro-ethereal style to Sam Smith’s hit “Stay With Me.” And my, does the lady slay it.

On her decision to cover the song:

“I’m covering Sam Smith’s ‘Stay With Me’. … There was one line which basically alludes to saying, ‘I’m not in love with you and maybe this isn’t a serious thing, but it’s perfect for right now and it’s what I need emotionally right now,’ and maybe that’s just something that I have related to.”

Also, those eyebrows.
