I was listening to "Lay Me Down" the other day and it made me wonder if Adam would ever consider adding it to his set when he plays the UK or, if he does any one-off gigs there this year, European countries where the song was popular.
If he has only twenty minutes or so at Fusion Festival I don't really expect "Lay Me Down" (will probably be the standard "Ghost Town," "Another Lonely Night," "The Original High," "Evil in the Night," "Whataya Want from Me" setlist he's been working with). But it might be nice to include LMD if his allotted time is longer. If he's getting mileage from the Robbie Williams comments, he might as well use the association with Avicii (and Nile), especially if he's playing for festival crowds.
If he has more time, maybe he could include "Shady," too, and say he did the song with Sam Sparro and Nile Rodgers. Both names would mean something to a UK crowd.
Maybe he'll throw in a cool cover tailored to a UK audience. The U2 video that was posted here the other day made me think he could do a snippet, a cappella, of "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" leading into "The Original High." Or something else entirely. A mash-up of one of his songs with something more current? It'd be great if he could do something musically at the festival that could capture some UK press. Covers often seem to be of interest, and maybe he could do one in a way that would include his own music, so his song would be featured, too, if the cover got any attention.

If he has time, it would be neat to get some Queen into the set!
