Justin Timberlake sings the iconic Auld Triangle

JUSTIN Timberlake has tackled the Luke Kelly classic for the soundtrack of the new Coen brothers movie.

The new movie Inside Llewyn Davis centres around New York’s Greenwich Village in the early 1960s.

Reaction to Timberlake has been mixed with some claiming he has adopted a fake Irish accent. “What's the story with the put on Irish accent?” asked one commentator, who said: “It probably would be a decent version of the song only for that.” Another listener said: “Not bad....can't hold a candle to Luke, but kudos for putting new blood to it.”
