A new video for Olivia Rodrigo’s version of the song “The Book of Love,” originally performed by The Magnetic Fields, was just released as part of the charity album HELP(2). It’s all for War Child UK and the great work they do for kids in war zones.
Olivia Rodrigo’s version of the song is part of the album, which features several artists who have come together to raise money for humanitarian aid.
A new video for the song was directed by filmmaker Billy Boyd Cope, with creative direction from Academy Award winner Jonathan Glazer. The unique twist for the video is that the footage was filmed by kids living in war zones such as Sudan, Ukraine, Gaza, and Yemen.
Jonathan Glazer said the following about the new video: “What they did with the cameras was up to them; we just encouraged them to play. What we got back was the purest form of their energy, joy, and truth. It gives us a chance to not only witness, but experience their innocence, joy, and resilience.”
Olivia Rodrigo promoted the album on social media, saying the following about the album: “HELP(2) is out now and every stream and purchase supports @warchilduk in their efforts to help children living through the unthinkable. So many wonderful artists I admire are on the album, and I am honored to have been able to be a part of it.”
Other artists featured on the album include Wet Leg, Depeche Mode, Arctic Monkeys, and beabadoobee.
HELP(2) is a follow-up album to War Child UK’s original Help album from 1995, also featuring a number of big-name musicians to raise money for children living in war zones around the world.
