Known for his renditions of Bruno Mars’ “When I Was Your Man” and Whitney Houston’s “How Will I Know,” British belter Sam Smith was on the receiving side of a cover by none other than everyone’s favorite struggle cover artist, Vin Diesel. The Fast & Furious 7 actor took a break from his day job and took a stab at singing Smith’s hit “Stay With Me” during a promo tour for his film Guardians of the Galaxy. Vin crooned to the best of his ability, hitting surprising high notes with much feeling. Smith even reacted to the cover, tweeting:
Vin diesel just covered Stay With Me. Surreal. Thanks man haha
