Why do we like this?

It's always risky to take on a cover of a classic track. It's even riskier to completely reimagine it.

London act Colouring tacle the Motown classic "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" and imbue it with a downcast, electronic sentiment that completely changes the feel of the original. 

With atmospheric vocals and melancholy guitars, Colouring create an aching, introspective rework. It's surprisingly refreshing and imaginative, while staying true to their style.
