After mixing “Umbrella” up with The Time’s “Jungle Love” at last week’s Grammys, Rihanna is set to perform the umpteenth “live remix” of the song at Wednesday’s Brit Awards. Her foils this time: The Klaxons, who told Radio One that their take on the still-pretty-ubiquitous hit will be “an electronic version with guitars on it.” Which sounds to me like it could describe the original take on the song, but apparently Rihanna’s people disagree in a hilarious way! “They’ve got this funny idea of what our band sounds like and we’ve done three or four different versions,” the band said. “Her people kept sending versions back going ‘No, this sounds more like you.’” Perhaps her management thought that she would actually be working with the Jacksons?

No, no — if it were the Jacksons, somehow Jarvis Cocker would be involved.
