Alessia Cara Wins Us Over With Another Amazing Cover

it’ll make you “love yourself”

by Sydney Gore

Lately, Canadian artists have been openly showing their love and support for each other—Justin Bieber did a fresh remix of Drake's "Hotline Bling," but newcomer Alessia Cara had already done that back in August. It was only a matter of time before Cara turned a Bieber song into an acoustic lullaby, so in the comfort of her bedroom wearing a beanie and a sweater, the singer covered "Love Yourself."

Before she starts, Cara gives viewers a warning: “I just learned it like three seconds ago, so I’m probably going to get the words wrong, but that’s okay. I hope you like it.” The Ed Sheeran-written track is featured on Bieber's newly released Purpose album, which came out the same day as Cara's debut album Know-It-All. (Oh yeah, and One Direction's album, too.) Cara's version makes the tune more intimate, and yet it's still got the vibe of a sing-along. Grab a blanket to snuggle up in and listen to the beautiful cover, below.
