Katy Perry Teams Up With Tiësto for New Remix of “Resilient” featuring Aitana
American singer-songwriter Katy Perry and Dutch DJ Tiësto teamed up to release a new remix of “Resilient” featuring Spanish singer Aitana on November 13th. The song received its first play during BBC Radio 1 “Best New Pop”.
Three artists dropped a new music video for the song on November 16th. Directed by Chloe Wallace. The video and the song are in support of OpenToBetter campaign by Coca-Cola.
The original version of the song is included Katy Perry's 5th studio album “Smile”, which was released back in August. It was written by Katy Perry, Ferras, Mikkel Storleer Eriksen and Tor Erik Hermansen.
Katy Perry said of the campaign, “To me, this campaign is about growing through challenges. I think the song 'Resilient' ties so well into that because being resilient is getting back up after you fall, growing from failure, and getting through that challenge. I loved the unity perspective Aitana brought to the song, and how it evolves the message into the importance of being resilient as a group. It's not always just about personal growth, we need to grow together too!”- Tiësto said, “Whether through my music or my live performances, creating feel good and uplifting moments is my passion! I am thrilled to have the opportunity to join forces with Katy Perry and Aitana for this project with Coca-Cola – our mission is to inspire much needed optimism and happiness in our world, particularly during this time!”
Aitana explained, “Getting to work with Katy Perry on one of her singles feels like I am dreaming! With the incredible Tiësto involved as well, and Coca Cola's important vision for this partnership, I hope this new version of 'Resilient' provides a moment of upliftment and happiness for people that are facing any challenge, big or small.” - source : TOTALNTERTAINMENT
