Yes, there really is one! Funny how the world works. Jesse Dylan and Will.i.am (from the Black Eyed Peas) got together with celebrities to express their support for Obama. And the resulting YouTube video was great. Our Sing for Obama! Sing for America! Yes We Can video is the people’s counterpart to that.
But we DO have a Dylan connection. Their video was directed by Bob Dylan’s son and our video, the Sing for Obama! Sing for America! Yes We Can video, is being co-produced by Barbara “Moldt” Gorson, who was Bob Dylan’s secretary for six years in the late 70’s, early 80’s.
So, we challenge all of you — especially you Dylan fans – to come to the event. And whether you attend or not, take on our Challenge and create your own grassroots videos of the Yes We Can song and post them on YouTube. Anyone up for singing Yes We Can in a Dylan imitation voice? Do it for Dylan! Do it for the “regular folks” (like you and me) with big voices and lots of spirit.
