For their record-breaking sixth time in the Like A Version studio, The Wombats took it back to the 80s with their run at Huey Lewis & The News.<\/p>\n
The Liverpudlian trio have just about done it all in the triple j studios. From their very first take on The La’s back in 2008<\/a>, they’ve run up that hill<\/a>, checked the price tags<\/a>, been our shadow<\/a> and even serenaded us with a Christmas carol<\/a>.<\/p>\n Now, on the 40th anniversary of Back To The Future, they’re grabbing their hoverboards and taking us back to the future with their take at the 1985 hit, ‘Power Of Love’.<\/p>\n “We all grew up hearing it after watching Back To The Future so it’s ingrained in our minds,” drummer Dan Haggis said.<\/p>\n “As a kid, especially, you just soak it all up don’t you? It just becomes part of your life so every time you hear it, you get memories from that time in your life.<\/p>\n “And it’s just a real cracking tune.”<\/p>\n Busting out a Huey Lewis for your record-breaking sixth Like A Version with life sized wombats on keys and guitar? Great Scott, that’s a good choice.<\/p>\n Check out more from The Wombats’ victory lap in the Like A Version studios below.<\/p>\n Behind The Wombats’\u00a0cover of Huey Lewis & The News ‘The Power of Love’ for Like A VersionLoading…The Wombats – ‘Blood On The Hospital Floor’\u00a0(live for Like A Version)Loading…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For their record-breaking sixth time in the Like A Version studio, The Wombats took it back to the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":219350,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[64,63,120168,133868,4156,134,3956,133867,4155,4154,136,133866,4153,3953],"class_list":["post-219349","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-back-to-the-future","tag-back-to-the-future-40th-anniversary","tag-cover","tag-entertainment","tag-foryou","tag-huey-lewis-the-news","tag-like-a-version","tag-live-music","tag-music","tag-the-wombats","tag-the_latest","tag-triple-j"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219349","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=219349"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219349\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/219350"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=219349"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=219349"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=219349"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
