US R&B singer Gallant covers BoA's "Only One"


When BoA's memorial EP was revealed, the one cover I was most interested in was Gallant's. It was so unexpected, and I knew we would get something brand new. And Gallant didn't disappoint; striking a perfect balance between making the song his own, whilst still respecting the original.


The only thing wrong with this is that I couldn't always make out what Gallant was singing, which was probably down to the mixing. But the arrangement was nice. I could imagine BoA performing "Only One" with this arrangement for a low key acoustic set. It'd be pretty cool if she did perform "Only One" in the future and did this version.
