Siguen avanzando los días de confinamiento en todo el mundo y a pesar de que parece que el virus está dejando de expandirse rápidamente lo que sigue sin detenerse es gente buscando maneras de ayudar a los demás. En esta ocasión ha sido de la mano de los cantantes norteamericanos Julia Michaels y JP Saxe quienes compusieron juntos la canción "If The World Was Ending" y ahora publican una nueva versión del tema acompañados de otros artistas para ayudar en la recaudación de fondos para la organización Médicos Sin Fronteras.
En el tema y el vídeo participan los siguientes artistas: H.E.R., Niall Horan, Keith Urban, Finneas, Alessia Cara, Jason Derulo, Kesha, Zara Larsson, Kelsea Ballerini, Sam Smith, The Rose, Anthony Ramos, Pink Sweat$, Jordan Davis, Sasha Sloan, Anne Marie, Noah Cyrus, Lindsey Stirling, Fletcher, Sabrina Carpenter, Evaluna Montaner, Camilo, Sam Nelson Harris (X Ambassadors), Maeta, Mau y Ricky, Florida Georgia Line, Julia Michaels y JP Saxe.
La canción, que está publicada en el disco "Hold It Together" de JP Saxe, está originalmente inspirada en los terremotos de 2019 que tuvieron lugar en Los Ángeles. "Estamos muy agradecidos por la increíble labor que están realizando los trabajadores de primera línea durante esta pandemia mundial. En un momento en el que a veces puede parece que el mundo se está acabando (por el significado del título de la canción en inglés) damos las gracias a todos los trabajadores sanitarios, paramedicos y a los trabajadores esenciales que están ayudando a tanta gente necesitada", dijeron Julia y JP en una declaración conjunta a la revista Rolling Stone.
Letra completa de "If The World Was Ending":
I was distracted and in traffic
I didn't feel it when the earthquake happened
But it really got me thinkin', were you out drinkin'?
Were you in the living room, chillin', watchin' television?
It's been a year now, think I've figured out how
How to let you go and let communication die out
I know, you know, we know you weren't
Down for forever and it's fine
I know, you know, we know we weren't
Meant for each other and it's fine
But if the world was ending, you'd come over, right?
You'd come over and you'd stay the night
Would you love me for the hell of it?
All our fears would be irrelevant
If the world was ending, you'd come over, right?
The sky'd be falling and I'd hold you tight
And there wouldn't be a reason why
We would even have to say goodbye
If the world was ending, you'd come over, right? Right?
If the world was ending, you'd come over, right? Right?
I tried to imagine your reaction
It didn't scare me when the earthquake happened
But it really got me thinkin', the night we went drinkin'
Stumbled in the house and didn't make it past the kitchen
Ah, it's been a year now, think I've figured out how
How to think about you without it rippin' my heart out
I know, you know, we know you weren't
Down for forever and it's fine
I know, you know, we know we weren't
Meant for each other and it's fine
But if the world was ending, you'd come over, right?
You'd come over and you'd stay the night
Would you love me for the hell of it?
All our fears would be irrelevant
Si el mundo se acaba, ¿tú vendrías, verdad?
Los dos cayendo con la gravedad
And there wouldn't be a reason why
We would even have to say goodbye
If the world was ending, you'd come over, right?
Oh, you'd come over, right?
You'd come over, you'd come over, you'd come over, right?
Right
Yo sé que tú sabes que amarno' de lejo' no es igual
I know, you know, we know we weren't
Meant for each other and it's fine
But if the world was ending, you'd come over, right?
You'd come over and you'd stay the night (Stay the night)
Would you love me for the hell of it? (Hell of it)
All our fears would be irrelevant
If the world was ending, you'd come over, right?
The sky'd be falling while I hold you tight (Oh woah)
No, there wouldn't be a reason why
We would even have to say goodbye
If the world was ending, you'd come over, right?
You'd come over, you'd come over, you'd come over, right?
Hmm
If the world was ending, you'd come over, right?
