    Katy Perry visited the China National Orchestra in Beijing on 12th January 2014 where they performed two songs for Katy: 'Silk Road' (traditional Chinese music piece) and their interpretation of 'Roar' which was rearranged and performed especially for her.

    Try not to sing to this.. You can't! This is an awesome rendition of Katy Perry's Roar.

      ***** Yet Roar was written, produced and recorded before Brave. LOL try again.

    • @johnbonebag
      @johnbonebag Před 10 lety +3

      TheNightSimmer maybe you should google next time. brave was released in april 2013. roar was released in august 2013.

      John Bonebrake he said written, produced, and recorded. sure it was released in august, but the other aspects to the song were done way before then.

      @TheNightSimmer Před 10 lety +1

      ***** If you're not up to date with this "crap" then why are you even trying to bring Katy down? There's enough ignorant hate on the Internet.

    • @TheNightSimmer
      @TheNightSimmer Před 10 lety +1

      John Bonebrake Maybe you should read next time. Writing, production and recording does not = release.

    The beauty of this gave me goose bumps; it's like the instruments were singing out the lyrics. It's the merging of so very, very ancient instruments and an equally old musical tradition with a modern pop song...not to mention the melding of East and West...that makes this rendition just divine. What a reminder that music really can unite us all! No wonder Ms. Perry was moved to tears!

      +No Name with those instruments u felt that ancient Chinese soul and it hit the spot =) .. it's beautiful really and the conductor's movements r genius!

    All these political comments disgust me. It's just a freaking cover performance of her song. You guys are blowing it out of proportion. Sheesh.

    • @gwildordipkin6504
      @gwildordipkin6504 Před 3 lety +1

      Plus she didn't even write Roar itself. That's why she's crying in the news story on this, probably, not the flattery, but realizing shes just a pretty shell that creative people channel their music through.

    I don´t understand how you people (not all of you) cannot simply enjoy what you hear without putting down Katy Perry who is the one who had the inspiration for this great song, whom she wrote together with other songwriters, And you ignored the fact that she was moved to tears while hearing this Beautiful piece of Music which she herself sings in the best pop manner. No, you had to put her down. That tells a lot about which kind of limited people you are.
