Bruce Springsteen performed a cover of 'Royals' by Lorde during a concert in her home country of New Zealand. Check it out below. 

The Boss was performing the first of two shows at the Mount Smart Stadium in Auckland, New Zealand last night (Saturday 1 March), when he opened his epic and hit-packed set with the stripped back cover - staying faithful to the original, but changing the lyric in the chorus to 'King B' and drenching the track in his majestic drawl. 

He also covered The Isley Brothers, invited Rage Against The Machine's Tom Morello on stage and played classic album Born To Run in full. Not bad, eh?
