This is INSPIRING!
Everybody Dreams Featuring Mobo Award Winner Guvna B Supported by Simon Cowell, Idris Elba, Wizkid, Ed Sheeran, reality stars of Love island and Big Brother, along with British MP's such as David Lammy, Micheal Gove, and Boris Johnson. We had the absolute honour of being blessed with the International artist and producer Dave Stewart (The Eurythmics) to do a remix of our song and even jam with us.
Why The PROJECT?
The project came to be when The BBC reported recently, that there have been many negative stories coming out of London: acid attacks, knife crime, inner-city gang culture, terrorism, the Grenfell Tower fire tragedy and young men dying in police custody, these are traumas some of which the children have witnessed first-hand.
But amidst all the sorrow and pain, there is light.
Who are these KIDS?
We are pupils of an 'Ofsted Outstanding' school called Gladesmore which is based in Tottenham, London UK. This song is a re-recording of our original song Called 'Everybody Dreams'. Our previous version had received London-wide BBC TV, and regional newspaper coverage and was nominated for many awards.
Who are our FRIENDS?
We are joined on this version with voices by students of other schools in London such as Aldersbrook Primary, Chobham Academy, Crowland Primary, Earlsmead Primary, Fortismere school, Galliards Primary, Highgate school, Seven Sisters Primary, St Mary's Juniors, St Pauls and All Hallows Primary, St Pauls with St Michaels Primary, St Scholastica Primary, Tyssen Primary, Urswick school and West Green Primary.
