[we sure love our bombay bicycle club! after introducing their haunting ballad 'still' a few days back, the BBC return with collaborator lucy rose to cover the continuing popularity of lana del rey's cult hit. creating more urgency during the chorus, this is a nice translation to a pretty much perfect song.]

WONGIE DISCOVERY: lucy rose - scar / don't you worry / middle of the bed / scar (live @ location music tv)

with her single 'scar' just added on to bbc radio 6 playlist, lucy rose is on the verge of something over in the UK. this 20 year old singer/songwriter not only has the love of influential UK music tastemakers like bbc radio 1 dj edith bowman, but opened for mumford and sons AND sang alongside andy burrows of razorfish and bombay bicycle club on their tracks (flaws and i swear on their current single lights out words gone). what is the most compelling thing about lucy is her captivating stillness when approaching her songs. check out these wonderful examples below!
