Sam Sparro, the Australian singer of the excellent dance track, "Black And Gold" will be in the Live Lounge with Jo Whiley this Friday, which should be great.

The song "Black And Gold" is hauntingly beautiful, and it should be interesting to hear what Sam does as a cover as well. :-) Great stuff.

No.

No no no.


It's a good song, but there is no way on earth it can be described as "hauntingly beautiful". None.

Best live lounge this year for me, well, the best in a very long time actually.

Loved the jazz influence, and the American Boy cover was awesome :D

Agreed, C-Kay... fantastic stuff. And Sam's American Boy version was better than the original. :-) Jo Whiley was saying the same thing! Well done, Mr Sparro :-)

Aww come here :)


It was quite funky actually, kind of Jamie Callum style, it worked very well. As Vivienne said, the American Boy cover was better than the original.

Actually, C-Kay, his cover made it tolerable! :-)

For this interested, the genius that is Fearne Cotton was saying that Sam will be at the O2 Wireless Festival in Hyde Park, London in July.
