Ever wonder what Justin Bieber would sound like if he'd been around in the 17th century?

Of course you have! You're only human. Well, wonder no longer! Because countertenor Robin Blaze and the University of York Baroque Orchestra and Chamber Choir covered the Bieb's seminal classic "Beauty and a Beat" and it's...something!

BBC Radio 3 broadcast the remix and it, unfortunately, does not include Nicki Minaj's verse:

We'd have loved to hear this dude and his majestic voice sing operatically about wieners.
