Well, here's a collaboration we didn't see coming. While at Reading Music Festival this weekend, NYC indie rock heroes the Strokes joined Pulp's Jarvis Cocker (aka "the Jarv") for a cover the Cars' '80s classic "Just What I Needed."

While the voices of Julian Casablancas and Cocker aren't exactly a perfect match, everyone involved is definitely having a good time, and it's definitely worth the watch.

Check out the performance below.
