Kim Petras is the latest pop diva to drop by the Spotify Studios in NYC and put her own spin on a classic. Demi Lovato memorably tackled Aretha Franklin’s “Ain’t No Way,” while Kelly Clarkson belted out Prince’s “Kiss.” The rising hitmaker, however, opted for something a little more modern. She delivered a stripped back cover of The Killers’ infuriating “Human” — near-perfect pop song undone by a non-sensical but still-amazing chorus. In Kim’s hands, the track becomes a vocal showcase.

In addition to covering The Killers, the 25-year-old recently released a Valentine’s Day anthem called “Heart To Break.” It follows breakout hit “I Don’t Want It At All,” which went viral and spawned a video starring Paris Hilton, as well as a long list of buzz tracks including “Slow It Down,” “Hills” and “Hillside Boys.” With all this flawless content, it can’t be too long before Kim blesses us with an EP or album. Listen to her cover of “Human” below.
