Can Mark Ronson's blissed-out version of The Giver in Radio 1's Live Lounge be any better?

2 July 2015

Official coolest cat in the universe Mark Ronson brought Keyone Starr, the voice on his latest single I Can't Lose, to the BBC's legendary Maida Vale studios in West London.

They also laid into an extremely chilled version of Duke Dumont's summer jam The Giver. Ronson's already done a remix of it, so we guess he relished the chance to make it entirely his own.

Does he wake up like this? Seriously, not sure how you get cooler than Mark Ronson here.
A little rehearsal never hurts.
'You could eat off this piano...'

Lights, camera...

Who's up for a chorus of 'We No Speak Americano'?

Action!

Squee alert! Little starstruck, Clara? Be honest!

There was just time left over for a cheeky cover of Candy Rain by Soul For Real, exclusive to Trevor Nelson's show on 1Xtra.
