Watch Haim Cover Beyonce’s “XO” on BBC Radio 1

Watch Haim cover Beyonce’s saccarine hit “XO” on BBC’s Live Lounge.



Haim performed a cool cover of "XO" for BBC Radio 1, taking the already saccharine Beyonce single and turning it into a stripped-back, Haim-y tribute. Eldest Haim Este takes the lead here, while her sisters provide the vocal echoes that give the original its cinematic vibe. Watch the whole performance above.
