White Lies cover Kanye West
Love Lockdown gets a b-side release

White Lies recorded a cover of Kanye West's Love Lockdown for BBC Radio One's prestigious Live Lounge. The good news is that we won't have to wait for the next 'Lounge compilation: it's being released on the flipside to White Lies' next single.
Fairwell To The Fairground is the fourth single from number-one album To Lose My Life… As well as Love Lockdown, a M83 remix of Nothing To Give will also feature.
Perhaps an addition to the 4 secret of White Lies' success is in order: 5) boost your credentials by covering a hip-hop megastar.
Own Fairwell To The Fairground on 23 March or hear the cover of Love Lockdown, right now…
