Two of music’s most gifted talents, Sam Smith and John Legend, have joined forces for an awesome cause.

Moments ago, a new Legend assisted version of ‘Lay Me Down’ – from Smith’s debut album ‘In The Lonely Hour’ – was released as the official Red Nose Day single in the UK.

Hosted every two years, the major fundraiser launches a nationwide drive for donations to help end poverty in Africa and picks a song to assist its cause.
