Katy Perry couldn’t be happier that her cover of The Beatles‘ “All You Need Is Love” helped raise a rather sizable donation for this year’s Giving Tuesday.
In fact, the pop star took to Twitter on Tuesday to share that the Spotify exclusive had helped rake in a six-figure check for child poverty nonprofit Baby2Baby on behalf of Gap, writing, “Pleased as punch that so many of you streamed my All You Need is Love track on @Spotify. Because of it, @Gap will be donating $100k to @baby2baby #GivingTuesday.”
On her jaunty take, Perry tackles the 1967 No. 1 Hot 100 hit by the Fab Four with gusto, singing, “Nothing you can make that can’t be made/ No one you can save that can’t be saved/ Nothing you can do, but you can learn how to be you in time/ It’s easy/ All you need is love/ All you need is love/ All you need is love, love/ Love is all you need,” over the orchestral swell of strings, a horn section and a steadily strumming acoustic guitar.
Meanwhile, the “Daisies” singer is currently in the midst of preparing for the kick-off of her first-ever Las Vegas residency, “Katy Perry: Play,” which is set to raise the curtain on Dec. 29 at Resorts World Las Vegas. Earlier this week, she even channeled Elvis Presley, wearing a glittery jumpsuit, long brown wig and massive belt buckle emblazoned with “KP LV” in a new teaser video for the Sin City musical extravaganza.
