Charli XCX and Bleachers Cover Each Other For Kia

(Radio.com) What happens when you put Charli XCX and Bleachers' Jack Antonoff into a Kia? If this new commercial is any indication, only good things. The pair tap into a very '80s vibe in a two-minute mash-up track, during which they cover each others' songs. Bleachers' Antonoff puts a Gary Numan's "Cars"-meets-Max Headroom twist on Charli's "Break the Rules," to heady effect at first, his deep vocal blossoming on the chorus.

For her turn, XCX gives Bleachers' "Rollercoaster" the John Hughes school yard treatment and hits the pitch perfectly while singing about a "killer queen."

For more of Charli XCX doing covers, check out her recently launched cover of the track "Money (That's What I Want)" on Vogue. Bleachers is currently on a Christmas tour across the U.S., ending Dec. 20 in Kansas.
