Ariana Grande's rendition of Somewhere Over the Rainbow and other performances from Sunday's One Love Manchester concert have been released as a charity album to benefit victims of the bombing at Manchester Arena. Following Grande's emotional cover, which closed the show, fans had called on the American pop star to release the performance as a further charity fundraiser for the British Red Cross and its We Love Manchester Emergency Fund. The 39-track One Love Manchester album is now available via multiple streaming platforms, including Apple Music, Spotify and Tidal. All proceeds will support those affected by the bomb attack, which occurred just after Grande's May 22 concert in Manchester. The song, performed at the benefit by Coldplay and Ariana Grande, has resurfaced on the U.K. music charts and become an unofficial anthem symbolizing Manchester's resilience since the attack.
