Charli XCX has recorded two of her biggest 2014 tunes for a second time - this time, she's translated the lyrics, and is singing in Japanese.
It seems she's picked up the language pretty well; the translated versions will feature as bonus tracks on the Japanese release of Sucker.
Sucker is due out in the UK 16 February after a series of delays.
Listen to snippets of both rerecorded versions below.
"Break The Rules"
"Boom Clap"
