King of pop, Justin Timberlake took to the BBC Radio One Live Lounge stage today to play a handful of his own songs, plus a cover of The Jackson 5's 'Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground)'. Watch the performance below.
With the help of a full band, brass musicians and backing dancers and vocalists, JT entertained the small crowd with live versions of his singles 'Mirrors' and 'Rock Your Body' amongst others, before then bursting into the cover of The Jackson's hit, 'Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)'.
