For Australian radio station Triple J’s long running Like a Version segment, New Zealand singer-songwriter Benee provided a version of Ariana Grande’s hit “God is a Woman.” Some of Benee’s previous solo tracks have been upbeat and poppy affairs, so it was a brilliant choice to slow down this track into a more soulful sound.
The R&B beat of the original is still present but has been turned down in favour of surfy, indie-rock guitars, and Benee’s voice glides along the top, making it perfect for long days by the pool. Check out the cover below.
