Scottish indie-pop group Chvrches have become known for their popular covers, so when they had the chance to perform on BBC Live Lounge, they shared their own rendition of Justin Timberlake‘s 2002 hit “Cry Me A River.”

The band’s strong synth influence is heavy on this groovy cover song, shining spotlight on vocalist Lauren Mayberry’s fragile voice.

Personally, the original version of this song remains my favorite, but Chvrches certainly add an interesting twist. Check out the cover for yourself below and let us know what you think.
