Wild Beasts go Gaga
It takes a lot after the lacklustre Born This Way album to pay attention to La GaGa but it looks like she’s not counted out yet – asking Wild Beasts to remix her You and I song (sorry can’t be bothered with the umlauts either, they’re as tiresome as that album!) which you can hear…
