You may not be able to tell from the fun, party-pop sound of her signature hit, “APT.,” but ROSÉ also has a taste for moody Americana music, as demonstrated by her performing covers of Lana Del Rey and Paul Simon on The Howard Stern Show.

The radio program shared the BLACKPINK star’s full appearance on YouTube on Friday (Sept. 26). In addition to talking about her training camp days and playing the original pre-Bruno Mars demo recording of “APT.” for Stern’s listeners, ROSÉ treated those tuning in to a medley of Del Rey’s “Norman F–king Rockwell” and Simon’s “50 Ways to Leave Your Lover.”

The first song found the K-pop superstar delivering raw vocals over reverberating guitar and nailing delicate runs. “You’re just a man, it’s just what you do/ Head in your hands as you color me blue,” she sang, closing out Del Rey’s Norman F–king Rockwell title track before a drummer started playing a marching beat to introduce “50 Ways.”

“You just slip out the back, Jack/ Make a new plan, Stan,” ROSÉ sang, bopping along to the music. “You don’t need to be coy, Roy/ Just get yourself free.”

Elsewhere in the radio program, the New Zealand native sang tracks from her own debut solo album, Rosie, starting with “APT.” — which topped the Billboard Global 200 for 12 weeks — followed by “Toxic Till the End.” The appearance comes as BLACKPINK is on a short break from the Deadline World Tour, which kicked off in July and will pick back up again with a run of shows in Asia this October and November.
