Beyonce latest single is ‘God bless USA’
May 6th, 2011 - 2:09 am ICT by Aishwarya BhattNew York, May 5 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Just days after Osama bin Laden was killed, American pop star Beyonce will premier her new song “God Bless the USA” on Piers Morgan’s show. The show will be aired on CNN at 9pm ET on Thursday.
The singer revealed that she is releasing her version of the song to raise funds for the New York Police and Fire Widows’ and Children’s Benefit Fund. This is not the first time that the song has been sung by the singer.
During Barack Obama’s presidential bid in 2008, Beyonce sung the song and later made a studio version. The recorded version has stayed out of the notice of the public until now.
The timing of the song’s release has been made to coincide with the killing of bin Laden. Special US forces killed bin Laden in a raid which happened on the early hours of Monday. The United States administration says bin Laden’s body was immediately thrown into the sea.
There has been public skepticism mainly due to the fact that the United States has decided to hold on to the picture. The White House say the world should just accept that bin Laden will ‘never be seen’ on this planet again.
The death of bin Laden has shot up the approval ratings of Obama significantly.
