Lewis Capaldi is still riding high from his triumphant return to the stage at this year’s Glastonbury Festival. The singer dropped by The Tonight Show on Monday night (July 14) to chat up his well-received set and perform his emotional new single, “Survive.”

After host Jimmy Fallon read off a list of kudos Capaldi, 28, received for his Glasto set — which came two years after Capaldi was unable to finish his June 2023 performance at the fest due to a strained vocal cord and a series of debilitating tics he suffered on stage due to his Tourette’s syndrome — the singer admitted that this year’s return was “horrifying.”

The lead-up to the show, he said, was “horrific… [I thought] ‘I’ve made a terrible decision.’ And then I went out and we did it and it was really beautiful and lovely and it went exactly as how I hoped. And it was probably the best day of my life.” That is, until he has a child, though he joked he still might think, “‘Maybe Glastonbury was better.’”

Capaldi also worked about his recent announcement that he’s teamed with the company BetterHelp to give away 734,000 free hours of virtual therapy for those in need, a number that represents 1,000 hours for every day between his Glastonbury shows. And, now that he’s feeling more confident on stage, Capaldi boasted that he’s ready to go back on the road for dates in his native U.K. as well as Australia and New Zealand in November. “You can try to get tickets, but they’re sold out, baby,” he said with a bit of swagger. “So, fat chance!”

Capaldi returned later in the show to perform his moving ballad “Survive,” playing the acoustic ballad on a stage covered with a forest of fresh flowers. Check it out below.
