The Vaccines take on One Direction’s ‘Night Changes’

The Vaccines release third album, ‘English Graffiti’ next week (25th May) - featuring the singles ‘Handsome’ and the really quite brilliant ‘Dream Lover’ - so obviously being invited in to the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge today made ‘quite a bit of sense’.

The band - who are one of the headliners at Liverpool Sound City this weekend - opted to make their cover one of One Direction’s 2014 single ‘Night Changes’, giving the Top 10 hit a slightly eerie, understated twist, vocalist Justin Young crooning his way through the number in a somewhat subdued manner.

See for yourself below.

The Vaccines will play Liverpool Sound City (22nd - 24th May), Best Kept Secret (19th - 21st June) and Latitude (16th - 19th July), where DIY is an official media partner. Tickets are on sale now. Visit diymag.com/presents for more information.
