Lorde calmed her nerves before performing her tribute to David Bowie at the BRIT Awards by imagining she was singing directly to the late rocker.
The 19-year-old musician was joined by Bowie's former touring band for her rendition of his track Life On Mars which she sang in memory the late great artist - who passed away in January at the age of 69 after losing his battle with cancer.
Before stepping on stage at The O2 in London on Wednesday night, Lorde was suffering from major butterflies but she just reminded herself to forget the watching world and think of Bowie.
