At their show last Saturday in New York City, after a brooding performance of “Shelter,” the xx performed an shoegaze-y rendition of Robin S’ 90′s No. 1 smash, “Show Me Love”. Luckily someone was there to catch it all, with decent video and audio quality. The video below also includes the performance of “Shelter”; “Show Me Love” starts at around 3:20.

the xx are amazing live… I had chills during the whole concert (the 2 times I’ve seen them)… Plus, the lights show is fantastic

Pretty poor I reckon. Had high hopes cos ‘You Got To Show Me Love’ is such a great song, but they do a weak cover of it. Shame.
They did something similar recently with ’9pm til I Come’ by ATB, and that was incredible, much much better.
