Grammy Award winning R&B singer-songwriter John Legend performed “If You’re Out There” with the Agape Choir at the Democratic National Convention 2008 (DNC) at the Pepsi Center on August 25, 2008 in Denver, Colorado.
According to a statement, the song is an “anthemic call-to-action and evocation of human potential.” It includes such lines as “We’re the generation / We can’t afford to wait / The future started yesterday and we’re already late.”
“If You’re Out There” features the Agape Choir. It will be available via the Web site my.barackobama.com/johnlegend after the performance but can be purchased beforehand via iTunes.
The song will also be found on Legend’s next album, “Evolver,” due October 28 via Columbia.
