Interesting facts and trivia about Lay It On Me. By Songfacts®.

Vance Joy recalled the story behind this song: "I had this guitar riff I had been playing for ages but had never found a home for. When it was glued together with a lyric I had in my phone, 'everything starts at your skin,' the song started to make sense."

The video was directed by Mimi Cave (Sylvan Esso, tUnE-yArDs, Jim James) and features Angela Sarafyan, one of the stars of the HBO series Westworld.

The song topped Billboard's Adult Alternative Songs airplay chart. It was Joy's second #1 in a row on that particular tally, following the reign of "Fire and the Flood" at the summit.
