Tones And I has had her second crack at triple j’s Like A Version segment, this time wrapping her powerful pipes around a Gang Of Youths favourite.
The Aussie pop superstar performed a cover of the Go Farther In Lightness deep cut ‘Achilles Come Down’, complete with 40+ piece choir, strings, percussionists, piano, and more.

“I actually chose to cover this song before I heard it the whole way through,” the artist told the youth broadcaster. “I then saw that it went for seven minutes and had more lyrics than probably any song I’ve ever seen in my life!”
But she still rose to the challenge, giving the track a lush, ethereal makeover. During the appearance, Tones And I als performed her original track ‘Charlie’. It was the ‘Dance Monkey’ hit-maker’ second appearance on LIV, following her cover of ‘Forever Young’ by Alphaville back in 2019.
