Video Description:
Song from Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am Inspired by Obama Speech.
Celebrity-filled music videos have been used to support many social movements, from famine relief for Africa, to support for American farmers, to opposition to apartheid in South Africa. But rarely have celebrities and musicians banded together to create new music in the heat of a presidential c
ampaign. The Black Eyed Peas' frontman, songwriter and producer known as will.i.am, along with director and filmmaker Jesse Dylan, son of another socially active musician, Bob Dylan, released a new song Friday that attempts to do just that. The music video "Yes We Can" premiered on ABCNewsNow's
"What's the Buzz" on Friday. It was inspired, will.i.am told ABC's Alisha Davis, by Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign and in particular by the speech he has gave after the New Hampshire primary. The music video includes excerpts from the Obama speech and appearances from a range of celebri
ties including: Scarlett Johansson, John Legend, Herbie Hancock, Kate Walsh, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Adam Rodriquez, Kelly Hu, Adam Rodriquez, Amber Valetta and Nick Cannon.

Harry could you please come home
Things are looking bad
I know you would be mad
To see Obama lie and
Prevail upon the land you love
Americas wondering How we got here Harry all we get is lies Were gettin worthless Obama an Anti-American who'd sell us out To get himself a piece of power
