Great musicians performing for a great cause. What’s not to love? Last night’s Stand Up 2 Cancer telethon featured some of our favorite artists doing their most emotional material. Coldplay gave us a taste of “Paradise,” while Alicia Keys debuted her Girl On Fire piano ballad “Not Even The King.” Perhaps the most moving tribute, though, came from Taylor Swift, whose song “Ronan” was co-written by the mother of a young boy who succumbed to the disease last year. Watch above and below.
