Janelle Monae Simply Irresistible

Janelle Monáe rocks out on a synth-heavy cover of Robert Palmer’s “Simply Irresistible” in honor of the Academy Awards on Sunday. The Electric Lady keeps the lyrics of the song intact as she puts her funky spin on the ’80s hit for E!’s “Live from the Red Carpet” 2014 soundtrack.

“I had so much fuuuun reimagining this song for E’s #Oscars coverage #robertpalmer #simplyirresistible JAM,” tweeted Janelle.

The network also commissioned Charli XCX, The Royal Concept, and Fitz & the Tantrums to cover the song.

    Love Janelle Monae. Pharrell’s production has paved the way for artists like her. GOOD R&B MUSIC IS ON THE RISE. Support it, buy G I R L. Some great R&B tunes on here. http://smarturl.it/GIRLalbum
