Why do we like this?
The BBC 1's Live Lounge Late never fails to deliver unique covers, and MS MR's take on Arctic Monkey's "Do I Wanna Know?" is no different. While the original is a slow, unsettling guitar jolter with Alex Turner's familiar twang yearning for another chance at love, MS MR take "Do I Wanna Know?" in an entertaining direction.

The Monkey's reverb heavy guitars are replaced with a delicate piano line and comely percussion, with Lizzy Plapinger's spirited vocals giving "Do I Wanna Know?" a greater pop edge.
