2016 10 20 kings of leon ent main

The Nashville band delivered a moody and soulful version of Selena Gomez’ dance-pop banger.

Kings of Leon are supporting their seventh studio album WALLS that was released last week and visited the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge for a performance that included a steamy cover of Selena Gomez's "Hands to Myself."

The set comes about three years since the band’s last visit to the Live Lounge, when they notably reimagined Robyn's Dancing On My Own. It seems that you can tell what the boys’ taste in music is.

During a recent interview with NME, the Use Somebody rockers were asked if they had “lost their edge”. Frontman Caleb Followill replied: “If there was a movie made of our lives, in the last few years we had a lot of edge. Those are the moments in the movie that you’d wanna watch!


What we were doing early on was storybook, classic, what a band should be; the drugs and the booze and the girls. Now we consider what we’re doing a little more and if that’s losing your edge… maybe, I dunno. When you look at the bands that still had their edge, most of them, their music is shit so it doesn’t fucking matter about the edge.

Check out Kings of Leon’s version of Hands to Myself below.
