The Kills' stripped down take on Rihanna's us-against-them anthem, "Desperado," is perfect for when you're venturing in the Wild West with just your love and an acoustic guitar. 

The duo, who just released their new album Ash & Ice, performed the song for a SirusXM session.

 It's no replacement for riding off into the sunset with BadGalRiRi, but nothing ever could be.
