The Roots and John Legend cover Arcade Fire

I was pretty excited to hear a soul cover of “Wake Up.” With it’s hopefulness and positive energy I was really hoping this would be a banger. But I guess when the original is so huge sounding, anything else will always seem to fall flat. But if anyone can get away with this cover, I’ll let The Roots do it.

    I dunno man, I’m pretty into this. I think it might be better than the original. Can’t wait to see them in Chicago this December. House of Blues is the perfect venue to see this band!
