Tori Kelly Covers ‘Pocahontas’ Ballad “Colors Of The Wind” For ‘We Love Disney’ Compilation LP
Tori Kelly tackles Pocahontas ballad “Colors Of The Wind” on the We Love Disney compilation LP (due October 30), which features cover versions of Disney classics by some of the biggest pop stars in the game. As expected, the 22-year-old’s interpretation is spot on. She conveys the original’s sense of wonder, but still manages to put her own spin on the song by simplifying the arrangement ever so slightly. It’s easily the best cut from the album to surface online thus far.
“Colors Of The Wind” was originally recorded by Vanessa Williams and released as a single in 1995. The ballad was an instant hit, climbing all the way to number four on the Billboard Hot 100. The track has subsequently been covered by everyone from Vanessa Hudgens (who will ever forget 2008 compilation LP Princess Disneymania?) to Coco Lee. Listen to Tori’s exquisite rendition below.
