Katy Perry Sings Lady Gaga's Born This Way Acoustic Style

In the featured video, Katy Perry sings Lady Gaga's new hit song Born This Way. The California Girls singer does a simple, stripped-down acoustic version of the pump-up dance number that has been making waves since its release.

It's interesting to listen as Katy Perry sings Lady Gaga's song--she puts her own unique twist on it showcasing how creative minds can take completely different interpretations of the the same subjects.

This isn't the first cover that Katy Perry has done at a concert, she's previously given acoustic makeovers to songs by Willow Smith and Rihanna. This is a great example of how artists shape and inspire each other to create and test out new waters. Do you think we'll be seeing more singers remixing each others' work?
