Who knew Ciara was a Rolling Stones fan? While the “I Bet” songstress hasn’t exactly had a difficult time staying in headlines as of late, this next one from her should turn a lot of heads and earn attention across the board.

Ciara said the following about the song in a Q&A with Rolling Stone:

“I had never thought to cover this song…It was never on my radar to cover it, but when the opportunity came along, I was very thrilled, because I love what the producer Adrianne Gonzales did.”
