September 29, 2015

In recent weeks, artists seem compelled to pay homage to Justin Bieber when they play live sessions for BBC. But while both Halsey and CHVRCHES attempted to put their own spin on "What Do You Mean," Florence and the Machine took a crack at "Where Are Ü Now," Bieber's top ten hit with Diplo and Skrillex. Listen above around the 23 minute mark to hear "Where Are Ü Now" transformed into a durable rock ballad. The famous "dolphin sound" is rendered with guitar.
