While on NPR recently, Ryan Adams covered Foreigner's "I Want To Know What Love Is". Now someone has isolated the audio, so you can bathe in the brilliance sans the rest of the show.

Adams' cover strips away the synths, instead utilising gospel organs and Deep South inflections. It's transformed from a shoulder-padded '80s power ballad into a tender alt. country tune.

Hear the gloriously cheddary original and the gloriously glorious cover below.
