Janelle Monáe x The Jackson 5 - "I Want You Back"
Janelle Monáe delivers a bonus track from the deluxe version of The Electric Lady LP with a cover of "I Want You Back" by The Jackson 5. Janelle Monáe's take on the uptempo party classic is a more subdued and subtly deconstructed rendition of the original. The track plays a bit like a lullaby as she sings sweetly over acoustic guitar with an affect that is reminiscent of Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi." The track is available on the deluxe release from Target. Check the track below to listen to Janelle Monáe's cover of "I Want You Back" by The Jackson 5. Purchase The Electric Lady LP via iTunes.
