Ellie Goulding WILL release Rihanna cover

Yay!

Ellie Goulding has confirmed she will release her beautiful cover of Rihanna’s Only Girl as a B-side to her new single Lights. Ellie is certainly proving her stripes when it comes to the fine art of banging out a good cover - see her cover of Your Song by Elton John for more details.
The singer first performed the track for Fearne Cotton on Radio One’s Live Lounge back in December and ever since then we have been frantically You Tubing to get another listen. Unlike with Your Song, this time we didn't have to watch the John Lewis ad on loop.

Lights is due to be released March 11th (which is tommorow, how convenient!) and Ellie is currently in the studio recording her second album, which she reckons has a ‘darker’ sound to her previous stuff. We can't wait to hear it!

But for now we are loving this version of Only Girl and almost prefer it to the original. Which one do you prefer?
