We just love this new soundtrack! Sending a very special thanks to RCA.
RCA
Records released Winnie Mandela – Original Motion
Picture Soundtrack on September 3, 2013 via digital
music providers. The soundtrack and film features the poignant song
“Bleed for Love” performed by Grammy and Academy Award
winner and RCA recording artist Jennifer Hudson and the Soweto
Gospel Choir. “Bleed for Love” was written by Grammy winner
and six-time Academy Award nominee Diane Warren, and produced
by multi-Grammy award winner Harvey Mason Jr., Laurent Eyquem and
David Franco.
“‘Bleed
for Love’ has such an incredible and meaningful message about the
power of love and the extension of the human heart,” comments
Hudson. “Diane wrote a beautiful song and it was an honor to work
with her and the rest of the team to create this powerful piece of
music.”
“When
I wrote ‘Bleed for Love’ for the film Winnie Mandela, I
imagined how amazing it would be when Jennifer sang it,” says
Warren, one of the most prolific and successful songwriters of our
time. “It went far beyond anything I could ever have imagined. I
remember the chills I had being in the room when she was hitting some
of those notes! She put her entire heart and soul into this
performance. It is as if she is singing it not just as Jennifer
Hudson but also as Winnie Mandela.”
Winnie
Mandela – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack was
produced by award winning composer Laurent Eyquem and David
Franco and features a score composed and directed by Laurent Eyquem
that reflects Winnie Mandela’s perseverance during times of
turbulence and tremendous love. St. Teresa’s
Intermediate School Choir, Ben Amato, Ipeleng Moshe, Twalamato
