This song is for me, all about love and hope. It's about strength in unity and remembering that love is what makes our world better. We can only survive if we can forgive and love others as well as ouselves.
The powerful message in this song has been used to raise money for more than one cause.
'Love Can Build a Bridge' was originally performed by a band called 'The Judds' and in 1990 it made the top 5 in the American Country charts.
It was then re-recorded by Chrissie Hynde and Cher as a fund raiser for 'Children in Rwanda'. Then it was recorded yet again by Eric Clapton and Neneh Cherry as Comic Relief's official single in 1995.
I like it because it has the opportunity for singing some lovely harmonies. I hope you enjoy it.
