Barack Obama Sings Speech With Black Eyed Peas

Hillary Clinton may have got the support of Madonna, Jack Nicholson and Steven Spielberg but in a new video featuring some of the stars of the entertainment and sporting industries backing her Democratic rival has become a sensation on YouTube.

Black Eyed Peas, William, has contacted some famous friends and produced a song track for one of US Presidential hopeful Barack Obama’s speeches.

Calling the track ‘The Yes We Can Song’, Will called on Scarlett Johansson, Kate Walsh, John Legend, Common, Nicole Scherzinger and more to lend their voices and faces to the track, with an aim to encourage people to vote in the upcoming election.

According to timesonline Will said that he was captivated and moved by the New Hampshire Presidential Primaries, and that Obama’s speech moved him.

Will said that “The outcome of the last two elections has saddened me on how unfair, backwards, upside down, unbalanced, untruthful, corrupt, and just simply, how wrong the world and ‘politics’ are. It made me think of Martin Luther King, Kennedy and Lincoln, and all the others that have fought for what we have today, [It's] what America is ’supposed’ to be… this is not the America that our pioneers and leaders fought and died for. One week later .. I came up with the idea to turn his speech into a song .. because that speech affected and touched my inner core like nothing in a very long time.”
