Cat Burns has returned with her playful cover of the noughties anthem, "teenage dirtbag", by Wheatus.
“Teenage Dirtbag has always felt like a bit of a queer anthem to me, even if it wasn’t meant to be - I love that I didn’t have to change a single lyric," Cat Burns says. "Watching this version get so much love on tour has been amazing. It’s a song for all the misfits, and I’ve put my own unapologetic spin on it. Same attitude, but with a vibe that’s true to my story.”
Cat Burns played the cover during her sold-out tour in celebration of her debut album, early twenties.
"Teenage Dirtbag" is out now.
