15 Best Radio 1 Live Lounge Covers

1. 30 Seconds to Mars - Bad Romance (Originally by Lady Gaga)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ga_pr0vuHA 30 Seconds To Mars are the kings of Live Lounge (their version of Kanye€™s Stronger was even voted so by listeners), but I found their version of Bad Romance the most captivating. A little less about wanting love and a little more about wanting you handcuffed, this is probably the raciest radio 1 has ever got. Anyone who listened to the painful lyrics hidden underneath Gaga€™s ra ra€™s knows it was begging for someone to undisco it and make it a heartfelt ballad, they three piece never fully go into rock territory instead tease us with hints of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrO4YZeyl0I
