03. NO ANGELS

Bastille—“No Angels” (The XX “Angels” vs. TLC “No Scrubs”)

I have spent the morning in sheer *awe* of how well this track works, complete with clips from “Psycho”. The lead singer of Bastille, Dan Smith, has taken this mashup to a new level, re-recording the vocals and some instrumental parts as well. I IMPLORE every single one of you to give this a chance. I don’t even like the XX (sorry, hipsters) and I think it is brilliant.

Bastille are an alternative rock four piece band from London, England. Their name comes from the day their lead singer and songwriter, Dan Smith, was born.
