Who among us isn’t a Kelly Clarkson fan?

There are only three more days till Friday, so what better way to celebrate the impending weekend than with a “FourFiveSeconds” cover? James Bay stopped by BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge today (March 3) to put his own spin on the Rihanna/Kanye West/Paul McCartney folk-pop tune.

The British singer-songwriter looks super-cool in his motorcycle jacket getup as he amps up the original tunes folk vibe with his acoustic guitar and commanding vocals. James Bay is gearing up for the release of his debut LP Chaos And The Calm, which drops on March 24 via Republic Records.
