Lykke Li has shared a live session cover of Drake's hit "Hold On, We're Going Home", and it's incredible.
Trembling with the Swedish indie-pop singer's signature vocals, Li's version is a smorgasbord of sonic morsels. Echoes and reverbing guitars are in abundance, emotions rupture through tension-filled beats, and twinkling synths shimmer like camera flashes underwater.
This isn't the first time Li and Drake have bumped into each other: Li covered the track acoustically last year backstage for a sneak peak at her tour, and Drake sample Li's "Little Bit" on a 2009 mixtape, So Far Gone.
