Daley Covers Arctic Monkeys' "Do I Wanna Know" Live On BBC Radio 1

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Daley recently delivered a cover of the Arctic Monkeys' single "Do I Wanna Know" in the Radio 1 Live Lounge on BBC Radio 1. Performing live in session for Huw Stephens, Daley sings his heart out over the weeping strings, electro effects and broken beat that drive this unique take on the original rock track; The Arctic Monkeys' recording is considered a classic in its own right, which makes Daley's choice to cover it seem pretty brave. The stunning end result is proof that he had at least an inkling that he could do this joint justice. Check the footage below to watch Daley's intimate performance of "Do I Wanna Know" in the Radio 1 Live Lounge. Download the Songs That Remind Me Of You EP via DALEY.TV
