The covers of Drake's "Hotline Bling" are starting to pile up, and we're not exactly mad about it (it's one of our favourite songs of the year). Today, too, we have the latest: a rendition from the deadly combination that is Disclosure and Sam Smith. Yesterday, the guys were in the BBC Radio 1 studios at Maida Vaile promoting the new record, and, alongside a live version of "Omen", they surprised everyone with a cover of "Hotline Bling". The quality is still a bit low (it's a radio rip), but there's more than enough reason to love it as it is and hope they hit the studio and release a more proper edition. Whether they ever do or not, however, you should definitely give the cover a go. (If you'd like to listen to all of the show, too, you can do so HERE.) Disclosure's new record, Caracal, will hit stores September 25. Pre-order on iTunes are ongoing.
