America’s Song (The O.B.A.M.A. Song)

“America’s Song” (The O.B.A.M.A. Song)

In honor of this historic moment– the presidential inauguration of president-elect Barack Obama– Will.i.am (of the famed Blackeyed Peas) teamed up with renown composer and music producer, David Foster, to create “America’s Song.” It premiered on The Oprah Winfrey Show on January 19, set in Washington D.C. in preparation for the inaugural celebration. Faith Hill, Bono, Seal and Mary J. Blige performed alongside David Foster and Will.i.am. The song’s official title is “America’s Song.” But we can also refer to it as the OBAMA song, for if we listen to the chorus well, we can actually also sing the words, “Oh Beau-ti-ful A-me-ri-ca, My Ame-rica, is beautiful!” Notice that the first letters of the first five words spell out O-B-A-M-A! It is just fitting because the song was especially made by Will.i.am and David Foster for president Barack Obama’s inauguration. It’s a beautiful song! Just a thought.
