Lorde Surprise Covers Whitney Houston Classic Down Under

(Radio.com) Lorde is feeling the love. The "Green Light" singer rolled out an impromptu cover of Whitney Houston's 1987 classic, "I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)" during a show in Australia last week (Nov. 21).

Lorde's take on the Houston track was in honor of Australia recently legalizing same-sex marriage. "I'm very proud of you," the singer told the Australian audience while draped in a rainbow flag.

"This is the crying show. I don't know if you know that." Watch some fan footage of the moment here.
