Tay Zonday Covers Lily Allen's "Smile"

Download: Lily Allen - "Smile"

Lily Allen had her television debut earlier this week on BBC 3 and one of her first guests was Minneapolis-based "internet sensation" Tay "Chocolate Rain" Zonday. You can see the segment from Allen's show at the top of the post. There's a short interview segment at the beginning, but then the singing starts at the 3:45 mark. Though I feel like it's my professional obligation to warn you of what lies ahead: It's Tay Zonday covering Lily Allen. It's just as bad as you might think it is.
