The former X Factor star has recorded a version of Nine Inch Nails' 1994 track Hurt, famously covered by Johnny Cash in 2002.

Meanwhile Lewis' third album, originally scheduled for a November release, will now come out in March 2012.
It features contributions from Emeli Sande, Ryan Tedder and Fraser T Smith.
The singer's first album Spirit, released in 2007, made her the first British solo artist to top the US Billboard 200 chart with a debut album and sold more than seven million copies worldwide.
Lewis is set to perform at Radio 1's Hackney Weekend 2012 in the run-up to the Olympics in June next year.
Titled Hurt: The EP will be released on 9 December.
