Years & Years is the latest artist to take on one of Lady Gaga‘s songs for the forthcoming re-release of her 2011 album ‘Born This Way’, covering the album’s closer ‘The Edge Of Glory’.While Gaga’s original features a Bruce Springsteen-esque melody driven by keys and saxophone from late E Street Band musician Clarence Clemons, Years & Years’ version relies heavily on bright synths consistently throughout.‘The Edge Of Glory’ marks the fourth cover we’ve heard from the 10th anniversary re-release of ‘Born This Way’.
