Katy Perry may have delivered the 2020 anthem we didn’t know we needed courtesy of the revamped edition of her latest release, ‘Resilient.’

With its original incarnation found aboard her latest studio album, ‘Smile’ (click here to stream), November 13 brought with it the remix of ‘Resilient’ rendered by Dutch DJ and record producer Tiësto alongside Spanish Pop star Aitana (as we reported here).

To further drive its uplifting message home, Perry – as part of Coke’s new “Open to Better” campaign – joined forces with director Chloe Wallace to unveil the tune’s official music video

Speaking on the inspiring cut, Perry stated:

“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!”

Spilling details of the Coke campaign, Katy revealed:

 “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.”
