Charli XCX and Janelle Monáe have both covered a Robert Palmer song for the Oscars

  • March 3, 2014
  • Brad O'Mance

Charli XCXAs you probably gathered, the Oscars happened last night and in some sort of tie-in with E!'s coverage of the red carpet stuff, both Charli XCX and Janelle Monáe have covered a Robert Palmer song.

In fact, to be more specific, they've both covered 'Simply Irresistible'. Not together though.

For some reason we can't embed either of the songs, so well done the internet. 

But you can hear them by clicking here for the Charli XCX one and here for the Janelle Monáe one.

Great!
