"Nooo but have you heard of Tame Impala?"

Laura Mvula came into the Radio 1 Academy to perform her single 'Phenomenal Woman' and a cover of a cover: Rihanna's version of Tame Impala's 'Same Old Mistake'.

Laura said she stumbled across the song, after her brother told her to listen to Rihanna's album and her bassist told her about Tame Impala - she "just fell in love."
