Estelle Performs 'Steven Universe' Song To Celebrate New Album
Estelle, who voices Garnet of the Crystal Gems in Cartoon Network show Steven Universe, has performed the popular song 'Stronger Than You', which appeared on the series.
Cartoon Network have now released the rendition with an official music video of Estelle singing the powerful and emotional song about strength in love, on a beautiful sunny day surrounded by loads of Steven Universe fans.
The song is featured on the Steven Universe Soundtrack: Volume One, available now on iTunes and Google Play, and Cartoon Network want more fans to get in on it too.
They invite the fans to show them what they're made of, by performing their own renditions of the song and uploading it to the comments, where they could have a chance to be featured on their 'We Love Our Fans' playlist.
For those of you unfamiliar with Steven Universe, I heartily recommend it, especially for the wonderful music of the show, which is a lot of fun, wonderfully heartfelt and emotional and sometimes just really damn killer.
In Steven Universe, the world is protected from evil threats by the Crystal Gems, a movement of Gems sworn to protect the Earth from the Homeworld Gems. Their powers flow from their gemstones; magical gems embedded somewhere on the host's body. The four Crystal Gems are: Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl and Steven.
