The Democrats
are stepping up the fight ahead of the Presidential election… by releasing a
music video.
Hillary Clinton
became the party’s official Presidential nominee last night, launching the
final stretch of the Presidential election – as both Trump and Clinton have now
been confirmed as candidates.
To celebrate
the moment, the Democratic National Convention Committee has surprisingly
released a music video.
The party
released an a cappella cover of Rachel Platten’s Fight Song, and it’s
packed with heavyweight Hollywood and Broadway stars.
It features a
number of musical and theatrical legends (Kristin Chenoweth, Idina Menzel,
Ellen Greene and Alan Cumming) as well as a number of big acting names (Eva
Longoria, Modern Family’s Jesse Tyler Ferguson).
A release
explained: “Tonight, the Democratic National Convention Committee released a
new video, ‘Fight Song’, which aired for the first time at the Democratic
National Convention.
“‘Fight Song’,
produced by Elizabeth Banks, Bruce Cohen and Mike Thompkins, features actors,
musicians and supporters singing their support for Hillary Clinton to Rachel
Platten’s Fight Song. The a cappella video is inspired by the Pitch Perfect
films, which are produced by Banks.
“Fight Song has
been energising Clinton supporters at events around the country throughout the
campaign, and reinforces Clinton’s proven record of fighting for all Americans
and her commitment to tackling the big challenges we face as a country as
president.
The
participants include Aisha Tyler, Alan Cumming, America Ferrera, Ben
Platt, Billy Porter, Chrissie Fit, Connie Britton, Elizabeth Banks, Ellen
Greene, Esther Dean, Eva Longoria, Garrett Clayton, Hana Mae Lee, Ian
