Alabama Shakes and My Morning Jacket team up to cover Backstreet Boys
It’s all in aid of Chipotle. As in the burrito people. Yup.

In today’s ‘headline that sounds like a random word generator’ news, Alabama Shakes have covered Backstreet Boys. With My Morning Jacket. For Chipotle.
The burrito brand’s new advert features Alabama Shakes’ Brittany Howard and Jim James of My Morning Jacket, who’ve taken on karaoke classic ‘I Want It That Way’, lending it some of their Southern American charm in the process.
Presumably it’s something to do with the fact that Chipotle’s burritos are customisable. Who knows? It’s odd as fuck, though - check out the ad below.
