This afternoon at the Polar Music Prize ceremony in Stockholm, Loreen performed an extra special tribute to one of the two recipients of the award, Paul Simon.
She did a cover of Hear’Say…oops, sorry… Simon & Garfunkel’s classic ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ (are you enjoying the thus topical image we’ve used to the right?).
Obviously it was amazing. It took a little while to get going, but it’s all worth it once the vocal hysterics come at the end. But you don’t wanna read about, you wanna see it. No, trust us – you really do wanna see this.
Accompanied by a live orchestra, here’s Loreen’s take on ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’;
Also at the ceremony, were performances by two other Scandipop favourites. Laleh did a version of ‘Still Crazy After All These Years‘ and First Aid Kid covered ‘America‘.
