Yeah, that's probably the best non-rap cover of a rap song I've ever heard. I hope she records a studio version.

so glad you posted this. i spent a few months in the fall catching up/reviewing all the UK #1 hits (so I could appreciate FT's popular posts better), and "Lose Yourself" was one of the songs that really jumped out at me. Not that I didn't like it or know it was good, but hearing it out of the context of "current release" hype it became obviously what a BRILLIANT world-beating song it was. And this cover is just kind of further proof. (Although it's a shame she has to kind of renounce the song at the end with the "do you want to hear some country music?" comment.
