Ellie Goulding & Xaphoon Jones – High For This (The Weeknd Cover)

By Petar Kujundzic / Music, Tracks / May 30, 2012 / 6942 Views

Things have been rather quiet surround Ellie Goulding lately. Blame it on the tremendous success of her debut album or just the urgent need for an extensive vacation, or just both. However, the British songstress returns with a bang as she has teamed up with Chiddy Bang producer Xaphoon Jones to recreate The Weeknd's already classic House of Balloons cut "High or This." Listen to this interesting clash of creative forces below.

Too dope. She doesn't sustain the notes as much as he does which makes it lose some of its ambience, still a good cover regardless. I'm liking Ellie a lot lately.

i must be tripping shit compared to you guys but this is a yawn fest compared to the original. Sure it meets the standards sonically but with the Weeknd you can actually believe it because it's probably from his life experience. It's a product of him. This is just imitation.

all of you do realize her voice is computer generated auto tuned industry created like lana del rey

I've seen her live she doesn't need the auto tune but the effects help the atmosphere in this song.
