Blossoms have teamed up with Rick Astley once again, this time for a cover of Charli XCX‘s ‘360’ in the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge.The Stockport indie band stopped by the Live Lounge today (October 14) but didn’t reveal that Astley was with them as a special guest until they started performing.
Indeed, presenters Melvin Odoom, Charlie Hedges and Rickie Haywood-Williams only found out they’d have a special guest with them just before they came on air.As is tradition on the Live Lounge, Blossoms picked a song to cover and, about 10 minutes into the programme, chose to deliver a jangly, guitar-led take on the track from Charli’s celebrated album ‘Brat’.
Astley then joined in for an interpolation of Stardust’s 1998 hit ‘Music Sounds Better With You’.“We’ve been in love with the record.
Obviously, everyone knows that it’s been a ‘Brat’ summer, hasn’t it?” said frontman Tom Ogden. “We love it the same way everyone else has and this tune I just think is a great pop record.”Blossoms also performed ‘Perfect Me’, which is taken from their new album ‘Gary’.
