簡介

The Emmy Winning video "Yes We Can" is a collage  music video inspired by a speech delivered by Barack Obama following the 2008 New Hampshire primary, derived from similar union catch cries. The song was released on February 2, 2008 by the Black Eyed Peas member will.i.am on Dipdive.com and also on YouTube.

YES WE CAN was bestowed an Emmy for Outstanding New Approaches - Entertainment at the 35th Annual Daytime Creative Arts and Entertainment Emmy Awards Ceremony on June 13th 2008 at the Frederick P. Rose Hall at Lincoln Center in New York City.

Black  Eyed  Peas樂隊的主唱will.i.am在今年早些時候根據奧巴馬的演講創作的  "Yes,  We  Can"。這支MV彙集了包括  "天鉤"  賈巴爾、赫比·漢考克、斯嘉麗·約翰遜等眾多名流,  星光熠熠。

It was whispered by slaves and abolitionists as they blazed a trail toward freedom.
這信念被在幽暗中披荊斬棘，追尋自由的奴隸和解放者們低聲吟誦，
Yes we can. Yes we can.
我們做得到，我們做得到。
It was sung by immigrants as they struck out from distant shores
它被跨越重洋來到新大陸的移民們，
and pioneers who pushed westward against an unforgiving wilderness.
和開發西部蠻荒的先行者們高聲傳唱。
Yes we can. Yes we can.
我們做得到，我們做得到。
It was the call of workers who organized;
它激勵工人們組成工會，
women who reached for the ballots;

a President who chose the moon as our new frontier;
它指引總統將月球作為我們新的前線，
and a King who took us to the mountain-top and pointed the way to the Promised Land.
它引領我們跨越山巔，走向這理想之園。
Yes we can to justice and equality.

We know the battle ahead will be long,

from sea to shining sea - Yes. We. Can.
