Listen to Japanese Breakfast's Magnetic Cover of Tears for Fears' "Head Over Heels"

Michelle Zauner has released her newest track as Japanese Breakfast, a sublime, deconstructed cover of “Head Over Heels.”

Zauner’s take on the Tears for Fears hit is fragile and magnetic. Her soft vocals lilt over and melt into warm, twilight keyboards, lingering as she breathlessly leads into a glum, reverberating chorus. Curt Smith, co-founder of Tears for Fears, calls the recording a “beautiful, ethereal reimagining” of the original in a statement.

“Head Over Heels” is Zauner’s second single released via W Records, an imprint from W Hotels Worldwide, preceded by the spacey, frigid delight “Essentially.” A portion of proceeds from both tracks will go towards the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).

W Records released a mini-documentary about Zauner’s collaboration with the label alongside the new release, which you can watch down below beneath the cover.

W Hotels Worldwide launched their imprint label last year to help launch and support emerging artists, and Zauner was the last artist to join W Records’ roster in its debut year, which also includes Amber Mark, Perfume Genius and Roosevelt.
