It said that music often reflects the times, and if that's the case, we're doing pretty good!
Nearly every major artist in the country has performed for Obama and Biden, everyone ranging for Pete Seeger to Beyonce. Here are some of the highlights:
Aretha Franklin Performs "My Country, This Of Thee"
Perez Hilton can kiss my ass. This performance was emotional, especially considering she sang at the funeral of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. over 40 years ago. Even if it wasn't her best vocal ever, it meant more than can even be said.
Beyonce Performs "America, The Beautiful" at HBO's We Are One Concert
A very solid performance from the diva, although I'm surprised she didn't OD, considering she was singing it in front of the future president at the time.
Josh Groban and Heather Headley Perform "My Country, This Of Thee" at HBO's We Are One Concert
Definitely a surprising combination, but I guess it's to symbolize how different races can come together in harmony. They both did brilliantly.
More coming soon!
