Yo, what's up, guys? We're Bars and Melody.
Today, we are in Cardiff, Wales, recording a cover with our lovely
friend, Lauren, the winner of Got What It Takes?
Lauren stood out from the start.
# Ohhhh.... #
Fighting off some serious competition.
# So I won't let go... #
# Young blood, say you want me... #
# Ooh, what if it... #
She took the Got What It Takes? crown...
Lauren!
It's an amazing opportunity for both of us.
We don't really collaborate much. Me, Charlie, Lauren.
In the booth. In the booth, baby. Skrr.
Here comes Lauren. Skrr.
Hi. Oh, hello. How are you?
Hi. How are you? Good, you OK?
Yeah. Good morning.
I'm so excited to do this collaboration.
It's a lot of pressure to record with them.
Obviously, congratulations on winning the show. Thank you.
So, we have an exciting day ahead of us, don't we, Charlie?
We definitely do.
So, today, we decided the song we wanted to cover was Rise
by Jonas Blue and Jack & Jack.
# We're gonna ri-ri-ri-rise rise till we fall
# They said we got no-no-no-no future at all... #
I love that song, it's really good. Awesome.
I don't know how I'm going to take to being in a recording studio
for the first time because obviously I've never done anything like this,
but it's really exciting because it's, like, what famous people do.
We've got a good structure, I think.
The first part is very laid-back and relaxed, so... Mm-hm.
Thought that would be easier and better for Leo to do because he's got that silky tone.
Thank you, bro. No problem.
And then the pre-chorus we decided that Charlie's voice suited it best,
you know, he's got that, he's just got that,
he's just got it and then...
The chorus is pretty high and I know that you have a very good range,
so I think it would be perfect for your voice.
Yeah. Happy with that? Happy with that, yeah, good.
Let's do it.
If I post a cover, normally I usually get, like, 1,000 views,
something like that, but Bars and Melody
get, like, millions of views, which is, like, so amazing.
I definitely think this is going to be a bit of a challenge,
but I'm up for it and I'm really excited to do it.
Ready to lay down some vocals?
Let's give it a go, baby. Skrr.
Shout out Got What It Takes?, yo.
# Ri-ri-ri-rise rise till we fall
# They said we got no-no-no-no future at all...
# When we hit the bottom, nothing's gonna stop us
# Climbing to the top with you
# We could be the greatest ones who never made it
# Yeah, I could be talking to you...
# We're gonna ri-ri-ri-ri-rise
# We're gonna ri-ri-ri-ri-rise... #
Hey.
# We're gonna ri-ri-ri-ri-rise till we fall... #
She sounds sick, bro. Sounds really good. I think it went really well.
I loved how I sounded and it was really surreal,
but it was so fun and I'm just really pleased with it.
Hey. Hey. Good job.
Oh, thanks. Did you enjoy it?
It went really well. Well, it sounded fantastic.
Yeah, shout out Got What It Takes?, yuh.
# We're gonna ri-ri-ri-rise till we fall
# They say we got no-no-no-no future at all...
# They wanna ke-ke-keep us stuck and hold us down any more
# We're gonna ri-ri-ri-rise till we fall...
# When we hit the bottom, nothing's gonna stop us
# Climbing to the top with you-ou
# We could be the greatest ones who never made it
# Yeah, I could be talking to you...
# They're trying to ha-ha-hate but we won't cha-change anything at all
# We're gonna ri-ri-ri-rise till we fall...
# They think we're dropouts
# Living at our moms' house
# Parents must be so proud
# They know it all
# No, they don't speak our language
# They say we're too savage, yeah
# No, no, we don't give up any more... #
So, what's the verdict, Leondre? How did Lauren do?
That was a masterclass.
Hands in. One, two, three.
Got What It Takes? Hey.
Bars, Melody, looks like you've found your and.
