Katy Perry has released a cover of “Waving Through A Window,” a song from musical Dear Evan Hansen. According to Perry, she went to see Dear Evan Hansen on Broadway on April 29, 2017, and was “emotionally transformed forever.” “In my own life, I’ve struggled with depression, and like so many, always feeling alone in the battle of wanting to belong,” Perry says. “That night, I was particularly struck by the song “Waving Through A Window.” It embodied the mental isolation I sometimes fought. So when my friends @benjpasek and @justinpaulmusic came to me and asked if I would like to re-record this song, not only to help launch the national tour, but to continue the conversation on mental health and all its complexities, I jumped right in.” “Step out, step out of the sun/ If you keep getting burned/ Step out, step out of the sun/ Because you’ve learned, because you’ve learned/ On the outside, always looking in/ Will I ever be more than I’ve always been?/ ‘Cause I’m tap, tap, tapping on the glass/ I’m waving through a window/ I try to speak, but nobody can hear,” Perry sings. Dear Evan Hansen officially launched its U.S. national tour in October with a show in Denver. Copyright(c) 2018 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
