Florence Welch covers Just A Girl for the Yellowjackets return
The song viewers can hear in the "Yellowjackets" Season 2 trailer is a cover of No Doubt's "Just a Girl" performed by Florence and the Machine. The original song was released in 1995 off of No Doubt's "Tragic Kingdom" album and was a big hit when it came out. Florence Welch, lead singer of Florence and the Machine, was elated to be a part of the show's return as she is not only a fan of the Showtime series but also the song. "I'm such a huge fan of Yellowjackets and this era of music, and this song especially had a huge impact on me growing up," Welch said in a press statement. "So I was thrilled to be asked to interpret it in a 'deeply unsettling' way for the show."
The version performed by Florence and Machine is more chilling than the original and absolutely helps set the mood for what's to come in the next chapter. Welch was visibly excited about joining the Yellowjackets squad for this occasion, even posting a teaser clip on Instagram before the trailer dropped, showing off her own varsity jacket and writing in the post, "So happy I got picked for the team this year."
Florence and the Machine's rendition of the classic No Doubt track definitely has fans pumped for the upcoming season of "Yellowjackets."
