Watch Christine and the Queens perform Rihanna and Kate Bush mash-up
Chris performed a mix-up of ‘Kiss It Better’ and ‘Wuthering Heights’ in the BBC live lounge.
Christine and the Queens stopped by the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge this week to perform a mash-up of songs by Rihanna and Kate Bush.
Chris - who released latest album, er, ‘Chris’ back in September - spliced together Rihanna’s ‘Kiss It Better’ and Kate Bush’s ‘Wuthering Heights’ for a mash-up that works surprisingly well.
Speaking to DIY about her latest album in our September issue cover story, Chris said: ““I was eager to try and write a record that could give some justice to the complexity of a female figure in pop music. It’s about trying to be a pop character which is complicated. The notion of nuance and detours and actually all the small alterations, I’m interested in. I don’t want to be this glossy surface. Even in the queerness and the way I dress my queerness, I don’t want to be something that can be labelled onto a plastic bag and sold, you know?”
