Jim James is the latest artist to have performed a Spotify Singles session, and has covered the Bacharach/David classic What The World Needs Now Is Love with the Resistance Revival Chorus.
The My Morning Jacket frontman also recorded a version of Over And Over from his most recent solo LP Uniform Distortion. “I look forward to the day when these songs are outdated,” he says, “and there is SO MUCH LOVE that we don’t need to sing that the world needs more of it, and we stop making the same mistakes over and over again!”
“But until then we will keep singing, trying to bring the love. It was such an honor to sing these songs with the Resistance Revival Chorus. Their power is undeniable and it just lifted my spirit so high to hear their beautiful voices reach for the heavens and I hope it lifts your spirit too.”
Jim James is in London on January 29th next year for a gig at the Roundhouse as part of the venue’s In The Round event.
