'Oi! I just met you, and this is crazy…'

Is it possible that hardcore band Enter Shikari has a soft and sensitive side? Yep.  This adorable and well done cover show that they can get acoustic in a good way.

The song is done so well with such a gentle sense of humour that you cant help but fall for it.  I know Carlie Rae Jepson tune is literally EVERYWHERE but what a wonderful surprise to find it done like this.  We covered fun.'s version, meh it was ok but this?  This is a glorious tribute to a catchy pop tune.

I adore vocalist Rou Reynolds ability to make it manly and not so parody as you would expect.  The subtle smile to his bandmates sends a 'wtf are we doing message' but vocally there is no horseplay- amazingly well done.

This casual shoeless assembly took place at the NME offices and I am pleased as pie with it.  One of the best covers I have heard in a long long time.
