George Ezra covers Cyndi Lauper in the Live Lounge
En vogue Bristol-via-Hertford folk artist George Ezra, while pluggin' new single "Blame It On Me", performed a stripped-back version of Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" on the Live Lounge yesterday.
He's also got a few very sold-out tour dates coming up in October. You might be able to beg, borrow or steal entry.
Have a listen to the vaguely pensive rendition, and hear his baritone pipes croon out, not totally uncreepily: "Ezra just wants to have fun..."
