An artist receives her inspiration from the music and lyrics of "Rise Up, Daylight Breaks" by Bergevin Brothers Music. Joe Bergevin says after completing their first song, "Fired Up, Ready to Go!" he thought, "Now that we are all 'fired up' with a great leader, we've got some work to do in restoring America. While writing the lyrics, a debate broke out in the news about the significance and power of words that caused me to write a preamble for the song. The song 'Rise Up, Daylight Breaks' is about two things: (1) Getting back to work, working as a team, living up to our name United States by being united behind a common cause and (2) Rejecting the suggestion that words are cheap." Indeed, nowhere is the American spirit and work ethic more alive than in the hard work and comrader that went into producing, "Rise up, Daylight Breaks." Generations of Americans have endured great sacrifices and worked hard to protect and defend the ideals that that the Bergevin Brothers words so eloquently describe.

Thanks for posting it. :hi:

The amount of creativity inspired by Barack Obama simply AMAZES me! It's wonderful. :-)


On edit:
Assuming he gets the nomination ...
They should have the band perform this song and their other one, "Fired Up, Ready To Go" at the convention. :D

6. Great Highly Polished COMMERCIAL For Obama...

Great Highly Polished COMMERCIAL For Obama...

Where's all that rise-up-and work-together-unity from you Obama supporters for your fellow Democrats who don't support Obama, but Hillary?

Why do you think all Unity flows only in the direction of the Obama camp?

Why do you expect those Democrats who do not believe in Obama the way you do, but who honestly believe in our hearts that Hillary will make a better President, to drop her and run in Obama's direction?

If the way the Obama People in here have treated the Hillary People is any indication of the future, I'm thinking there are some really troubled times ahead.

7. Senator Obama inspires the outpouring of creative responses.

First of all, thank you for thinking enough of this video, especially the music by the Bergevin Brothers, to post it. We are two separate creative teams based on different coasts who have never met. Technological advances, and YouTube in particular, have given us new opportunities to share our resources and express our opinions creatively. Thousands of people have risen to the challenge. Barack Obama's leadership and courage to speak out has benefited from the new technological advances that make posting our creativity -- free of charge -- on sites around the world so easy. Inspiration is a gift, and I have chosen to support Barack Obama with mine. Perhaps when the Clinton Camp fully modifies its current path as the peddlers of fear, hate and intolerance, they may ignite a creative spark in some quarters but I think it is naive for anyone to suggest that artists must offer their talents equally.

8. Rise up! It's time for (incremental) change.

Oh well. It's still better than Bush or any Republican.
