Appearing Wednesday on TBS' CONAN,
Benjamin Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie performed his Beatles cover
of And I Love Her for the LGBT community.
Gibbard's And I Love Him appears
on the six-track album “Universal Love” from MGM Resorts.
“My next guest tonight is sharing a
song he recorded for Universal Love, a new album produced by MGM
Resorts that re-imagines classic weddings to be more inclusive of the
LGBTQ community,” host Conan O'Brien told the audience in
introducing Gibbard.
Bob Dylan, Kesha, St. Vincent, Kele
Okereke and Valerie June also appear on the album.
Dylan re-recorded “She's Funny That
Way” as “He's Funny That Way.”
Kesha, an outspoken supporter of LGBT
rights, closes the album with “I Need a Woman to Love Me,”
changing the pronouns in Janis Joplin's “I Need a Man to Love Me.”
“Universal Love” is available on
streaming platforms such as Spotify and Apple Music.
