Fun. Covers Gotye With Special Guest On BBC Radio1 Live Lounge

Fun. - the newest hit band from NYC with the newest hit single 'We Are Young' - was the guest of Fearne Cotton on BBC Radio1`s Live Lounge and they did an awesome cover of Gotye`s unbelievably popular single 'Somebody I Used To Know' with a special guest straight from sunny Los Angeles (well, as 3am can be sunny), who was no one else than Hayley Williams of Paramore through Skype! 

This wasn`t the first time that the artists worked toghether. In April 2010, Fun. supported Paramore on their headline tour so they are touring buddies and friends.

Check the cover below!

Somehow, the live version comes to my mind all the time I hear the original version of a previously "livelounged" song. Magic of live performance. That`s the reason I love that show. And my current playlist is full with covers from Live Lounge.

What do you think? Original or cover?
