Orville Peck covers Elton John's "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters"
Orville Peck has released an Amazon Original cover of Elton John's "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters" as part of Amazon Music's Pride Month celebrations.
Following Kim Petras' cover of Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill" last week, Amazon Music has released Orville Peck's version of Elton John's 1972 track "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters".
The cover continues Amazon Music's Pride Month celebrations, and appears on the platform's PROUD playlist.
"I chose this song because it was always one of my favourites when I was younger," Orville Peck said. "I just really think the storytelling in it is evocative and beautiful. It’s also equal parts witty and whimsical, but also heartbreaking. I love the combination of those two things."
The cover marks Orville Peck's first outing since releasing his Bronco album in April.
