Daily Dose of Protest: Super Lover (featuring Annie Lennox) – Allison Russell

Originally released by Russell’s currently on-hiatus band Birds of Chicago in 2018, the tune is a plea for universal love. For this updated version the Canadian singer-songwriter updates the opening line of “Tears of rage, tears of grief, from Inglewood to Nairobi,” to “Tears of rage, tears of grief, Palestine, Israel, to Tennessee.” The tune also benefits from the gorgeous vocals of Annie Lennox. The lyric’s message now resonates even more.
