Just in case (ba-ziiiiing!) you weren’t quite as pop-knowledgeable back in 2001 as you are today, New Jersey R&B crooner Jaheim made a splashy debut that year with his Top 10 album Ghetto Love. Among the tracks featured was the Grammy-nominated love jam “Just In Case,” a self-aware ode to the girlfriend of streetwise dude who, by the end of the song’s music video, takes a bullet

No, much the way she did three years back with BURNS for a surprise cover of Midnight Star‘s “Midas Touch,” Ellie Goulding has paired up with Canadian producer Jordan Evans (Meek Mill, Drake) for a UK garage-y take on “Just In Case.”

Compare both versions of the dramatic tune above.
