Live performances and usage in media
Where did Adele first perform "Set Fire to the Rain?"
Set Fire to the Rain
Adele performed the song live for the first time on 29 April on "The Graham Norton Show". She also performed the track on 3 May at Jools Holland along with the selections "Rolling in the Deep", "Don't You Remember" and "Take It All". Adele also added the song to the set list of her second worldwide tour. FX used "Set Fire to the Rain" to promote the final season of "Rescue Me" and the show's series finale. The song was also featured in promotional ads for the TV series "Ringer" and "Revenge," which brought it airplay in the United States without her label having to release it to radio stations. It was also used as an "insert theme" on the 2012 Fuji TV series "Iki mo dekinai natsu."
