READY TO BELIEVE - Obama Campaign Song - pka, Yes We Can

It's clear that more and more Americans are "Ready to Believe" and we dedicate this song to them. We believe it captures the spirit of hope and change that the Obama campaign represents at the same time it takes aim at those lame attacks from the other side.Here's a little background on how this song came to be. Incredibly, on the day that the current "You Tube" sensation "Yes We Can" was released, we were in a mixing studio putting in the final changes on our song, which we were also calling "Yes We Can." We decided to change the title to avoid confusion, and now it's known as "Ready to Believe," a title which, the longer we sit with it, the more appropriate it feels."Ready to Believe" is composed and sung by Cherish Alexander, lyrics by Jackie Zabel and Bryce Zabel, and produced by Damian Valentine and Cherish Alexander. At the time they wrote the lyrics, just days before the California primary, Bryce & Jackie were striking screenwriters. Cherish is a popular and established alt.rocker in the LA scene with a powerful voice and a passion to make the world a better place. Bryce and Cherish had worked together previously when, as executive producer of the TV series, "The Crow: Stairway to Heaven," he collaborated with Cherish to create some original music for multiple episodes.You can download a crystal-clear pure MP3 of "Ready to Believe" at ( http://www.cherishalexander.co... and you can also download a clean PDF of the lyrics.Please enjoy "Ready to Believe" and help the world hear it at this important and critical time.
