Sabrina Carpenter performed her two songs of the summer candidates, “Espresso” and “Please Please Please” along with a cover of fast-rising labelmate Chappell Roan’s latest single “Good Luck, Babe!” for BBC Radio One’s Live Lounge on Tuesday.
Carpenter’s version of the song, which starts at around the 20-minute mark below, starts off low-key and near-acoustic, but gathers steam on the second verse as the band and backing singers join in. Carpenter stays in a lower register on the first chorus but impressively matches Roan’s sky-scraping soprano on the second one, and the band even slows the tempo to a halt at the conclusion, like the original.
