Tame Impala has shared a cover of Nelly Furtado's "Say It Right" song, recorded as part of a session for BBC Radio 1.
Kevin Parker and his bandmates recorded their live set from their hometown of Perth, Australia, and it saw them cover Furtado's "Say It Right", alongside The Slow Rush songs "Is It True" and "Breathe Deeper".
Furtado's original was co-written and produced by Timbaland, and featured on her 2006 third album Loose.
Tame Impala's setup for the BBC Radio 1 session is the same as it was for the August NPR Tiny Desk (Home) Concert, which saw Parker and co perform "Breathe Deeper", "Is It True" and "Patience" using samplers and sequencers.
Tame Impala's cover of Nelly Furtado's "Say It Right" is available to watch on YouTube now.
