If you take a look at the Billboard 200, you will find that Drake’s sophomore album, “Take Care,” debuted at #1, selling roughly 700,000 copies in its first week.

While Drake’s starpower is undeniable, we can’t help but love this Florence + The Machine cover of the title track, “Take Care,” live on BBC.

The question is, whose version do you prefer?
