The 1975 have paid another visit to the Radio One Live Lounge, choosing to cover Clean Bandit's 'Rather Be' during their time at the BBC. See the performance below.

The track, which has been a huge success for Clean Bandit, is currently still sat at No.1 in the charts. However it has been totally transformed by Matt Healy and co, who reconfigure the previously upbeat track featuring Jesse Glynne into a downbeat jazzy number complete with synths.

Listen to the 1975 cover 'Rather Be' below

Complete with some seriously sexy saxophone, 'Rather Be' becomes the kind of song you'd expect to hear in the darkest, dingiest Soho bar. It is more akin to the Facedown E.P. than the band's recent output and is absolutely nothing like the Clean Bandit original.
