Hayley Williams Brings Out Seu Jorge to Cover David Bowie

Hayley Williams surprised fans in São Paulo last night by inviting samba legend and all-around Brazilian great Seu Jorge to the stage for a pair of duets. Jorge started with an acoustic, Williams-assisted rendition of his cover of David Bowie’s “Life on Mars?” After that, he backed Williams on her thematically twinned track “Zissou.” Watch clips below.
The latter song, taken from Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party, features a verse in Portuguese that was inspired by Jorge’s musical turns in Wes Anderson’s The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou OST—including “Life on Mars?”—as Williams told Billboard Brasil in a recent interview. She recently shared a video for another track from the LP, “Dream Girl in Shibuya.” Jorge continues to release albums of original music, the latest being May’s The Other Side.
